I'm no expert in financial stuff, but do you have a source that says these are deficit-based expenditures? Not saying you're wrong, but Edmonton is currently in a more bullish economic climate then Calgary, so I'd like to see your stats on this claim instead of anecdotal conclusions. The City of Edmonton, University of Alberta, etc. are well-run organizations.
