Yeah....I have to say I'm with Nik on this one. CalgaryNEXT was a joke.

King mentioned dialogue, but just saying it doesnt make it so. It was pretty clear from the beginning that Nenshi and King were so far off the same page that any realistic dialogue was a complete non-starter.

The fact that Nenshi is just now saying CalgaryNEXT is dead is very generous because I think it really died as soon as King hit the clicker and the 'Finance' slide on his atrocious powerpoint presentation came up.

I have trashed more complete, coherent and realistic proposals than CalgaryNEXT.
