Born and raised. 41 years. Holy Cross baby as well. My mother has been here since 1955, my dad 1965.
I always laugh when people say "Born and raised Calgarian! That's so rare!" When virtually everyone in my close circle, is a born and raised Calgarian.
As a side note. Seeing a lot of ups and downs in the cities economy, I just want to reassure everyone that hasn't been through one, this will get better sooner than you think, and will just eventually be a vague memory. I think this is the fifth downturn I've rode out, and this city always manages to survive. It has been a lot worse.
