Yup, and compared to cities of similar size (Edmonton and Ottawa in Canada plus many others in the States), Calgary's transit system blows the others away.
Cities like Nashville and Columbus are bigger than Calgary and don't have any LRT/Metro systems at all. Calgary was smaller than Winnipeg when the C-Train was built and Winnipeg still doesn't have any LRT system either.
