As a renter I'm sure he has a jaded view. The cost of renting has gone crazy. The cost of living for the rest of us hasn't.
Don't get me wrong, I'm damn lucky to have bought when I did, and I thought I'd be a renter for a long time. But most of the people I hear complaining about Calgary are people who missed out in the housing boom. Which doesn't translate into "Calgary losing its appeal"; it means they are bitter about paying $1500 to rent a 2 BR apartment.
