No fatalities is a miracle.

There are no such thing as miracles. Deferring to that only downplays the effort and hard work of others, or the realities of the universe.

Sure, but does it make sense to repave while in the middle of construction? Though they probably should patch some of it a bit better in the meantime.

No construction between Glenmore & Memorial, and its every bit as bad if not worse.

Not the whole thing, but they should send o it a crew and fill potholes and ruts. They could be doing that at night when Deerfoot quiets down. They can’t be unaware of how bad Deerfoot is between 16th and Glenmore.

Or course trying to submit a ticket will be like when I told 311 there was a dead skunk on the CP rail tracks at Chinook Station. “That’s not our problem!”

But it's not.
The city can't do anything about problems in areas the city has no authority over.

You essentially called the manager of Harvey's to complain that you didn't get cheese on your Big Mac.
