We're talking about selling their homes. We're talking about the value loss, if they can sell their homes, get compensation to move their homes to the new owners location, and additional $10,000 to cover other costs, there isn't much room to argue that they are making pennies on the dollars. I don't get the snarky attitude.

They did. For fourty years they had prime location in inner city Calgary while paying $600 in rent (or less) for the land they were on, while receiving water and electricity.
