This is very true. Friends we have in Calgary that have kids in sports are driving them around to end-of-city rinks, soccer fields and ballparks, and sometimes at very odd times of the day. Driving is part of the culture/daily life. For the vast majority, living in Calgary means you need a car. Not unlike many other cities in North America too.
