Agreed. In this era of Bronco Building I've seen umpteen new interchanges. Umpteen new road widenings. New LRT lines.
But what about parks, Rec Center, municipal (read affordable) golf courses and the other quality of life measures? Bronco made a big deal about some new parks, but I don't think they're in use yet. And I don't mean a chunk of baldass prairie with some chain link around it and a big sign stuck in the ground that says "Park" (ie NoseHill). More manicured places like Princes Island, Riley and Bowness would be a great way to spend some family time. Everytime I ride past one of these places it's always filled with families.
And isn't hard work just a part of Prairie culture? We ain't no softies here like those with water around em!
