What I'm disagreeing with is this notion that they're the best jacket you could get in order to be comfortable in Calgary winters and, that the only question is whether or not the price tag is worth it. If you had every jacket on the market to choose from laid out on a table in front of you for free and you looked outside and said, "which is the best option for me today", there will never be any day on which a Canada Goose would make the most sense.
And you can't even bring the "well what if I just want one jacket to wear in all weather situations" argument into it, because in that case first of all I still don't think the CG is the best option unless it just happens to fit you absolutely perfectly... but more importantly, because they're so expensive, you actually could buy multiple very good jackets to cover considerably more weather conditions and pay the same amount of money, or less, at the end of the day. So the only way that argument would work is if you were in some weird situation where you only have the closet space for a single coat, but have unlimited money to buy it.

To you. And me (I don’t own one).
But don’t you own a Porsche?
