Honest question

Honestly I think usually the people who say that do so because they really just want to spend as little as possible. These are usually the people who also would like to see things designed by students.
While its important to support local talent, I'm all for allowing outside talent to work here. It raises the bar in terms of quality, and exposes new ideas to Calgarian artists and citizens.
Besides, Calgary artists are free to work outside of Calgary too.
