Does superiority complex work when it's a 1.3mil city vs a 100k city? I thought that term was more for cities of similar population thinking they're better than eachother, aka Edmonton vs Calgary.

I don't mean any offense as I'm sure it's a great little city, but I highly doubt Red Deer is much more than an afterthought for most Calgarians, and certainly not big enough for any of our comments/feelings towards the city to be due to a complex.
