I'm a good old born and raised Calgarian girl and I take pride in the city and its people. I understand were expanding but there have been a few changes that are really disturbing...

heres my story, I was going to work and got off olympic plaza station to cross the street, there was homeless man attempting to cross the street as well ( obviously heading towards cups) he had a severly broken leg and came crashing down in the middle of the street, people walked right past him. I noticed the light was going to change and the guy would be stuck in the middle of heavy traffic. So I did my best to get him on his feet, but this guy was 6'2 at least and huge, I'm a rather small individual and wasn't making an progress ( and to make matters worse the homeless man was terrifed of me for some reason), I asked some guys to help me (they were approx 25-30 yrs of age), the scoffed and said "please, you gotta be kidding me there no way I'm touching that" and walked past, another jerk thought it was appropriate to hit on me, but again did nothing to assist me. people in their cars started honking there horns, impatient that we were holding up trafic, finally after about 10 minutes a police office came by and walked the guy to cups.

This is not the Calgary I remember, and it makes me very sad
