I agree that Toronto and Vancouver are the outliers. As far as Calgary goes, there has been a huge commitment to high-density development. That is the backbone of the East Village design. And without getting out of my office chair, I can see 7 or 8 cranes where apartment towers are going up.

But, NIMBYS!
I just lived through the Harvest Hills golf course redevelopment and it was both peak NIMBY and peak anti-density rhetoric.
