-These people against CalgaryNext defy gravity, but are not 'bad people.' I guess they just don't want things in their city. They probably like smaller and simpler cities. These people are smaller in number but louder.
-(The Filipino hospice lady. WTF man, seriously?????? What a dirtbag, sleazy salesman thing to bring up.)
-Those against are vocal minority and carry the day and consequence will be tragic.
-If the world doesn't want us around then say so.....

Stopped listening after that. Sounded a lot like Trump.
One other thing that stuck out was how sad and limp Kerr comes across. And I get why, but to not asking King to clarify any of his statements or not asking him any tough questions comes across as biased.
If you aren't filtering out your own bias, how can you expect anything different from someone else?
