Yeah, Calgary's system kinda sucks for LRT. You need underground transit in big cities.
Fuck, we had 3 people crash into trains in one day. It's not like they are hard to see or move in unpredictable patterns.
It's OK if it's done properly. So far in toronto though thats not the case. Also, we are one of those cities that has to deal with a cold climate at least half of the year. Who wants to wait outside for a street car when you could be waiting underground where its much warmer and not snowing and cold and windy. Also a lot less wear and tear on the tracks when everything is out of the elements.
You know nothing of cold nor duration unless you've lived in Calgary.
hahaha im good thanks.
happy with it not going sub 30 with windchill

You hate the west because you moved to one of the banjo cities. Come to Calgary. To be precise, the outskirts of Calgary.

beats any left wing mayor weve ever had. David Miller? Lol...
Was in the same subway car as Miller the day the pussy eating comment came out. He looked like the happiest man on earth.
Also as our resident communist I feel obliged to point out the supposed budgetary savings El Fordo touts are a load of horseshit.
Can't wait for the murder trial.

If i was to go West again, it would be all the way. From someone who loves the outdoors, BC has everything I would want. Ocean, mountains and forest. Move to the middle coast. Truly would be amazing. Never been and would love to go. Lived in Calgary and still never made it there.

But yes, close friend of mine lives there and has nothing but praise in how beautiful it is. Says it is basically a clone of Fredericton, where he is from.
