OK, this thread is two fold. Inspired by the "lifelong Calgarians" thread; this is for those of us who are Calgarians by choice; we all came from somewhere else, and now when somebody asks us where we are from, we proudly say "Calgary."

I've also included a poll, because I'm curious what the ratio of lifelongs vs. transplants is.

Myself, I came to Calgary from Winnipeg in 1992. I moved back to Winnipeg 2.5 years later to go to school; the catalyst being me not able to afford car insurance here. Moved back to Calgary in 1996, to Grande Prairie in 1997, and then back to Calgary for good in 1998.
