It really is an interesting discussion that brings out a fair bit of emotion in people. I just hope that the City of Calgary can cast aside biases and weigh all of the options appropriately. City bureaucrats don't like being dictated to by the private sector and I think many City planners are viewing CalgaryNext with this bias rather than fully considering the merits of the project. Regardless, it's an important project for the city and I hope that all parties can work together towards a fantastic solution.
