Remember that Blackfoot was the originally planned Deerfoot. It was built with the intention of connecting to the section of Deerfoot north of 17th and then continuing south along the Bow Bottom right of way (another waste of space). Deerfoot's routing changed many times

Bike path and consolidating land on the escarpment side

The utility relocation would likely be cost prohibitive, but I can dream

Wonder if Blackfoot could have been shrunk to 4 total through lanes south of Glenmore to free up space. It would be used for a bike path on the west side of the existing Meadows Mile. Mintoft could be moved to the west to create space for a pathway and park along the escarpment. Blackfoot is way...

I can fantasize about a massive redevelopment of the Alyth Yard and adjacent industrial properties (ex. Canada Malting and ADM). The it would center around a riverfront park extending into a central park that would span westward to the escarpment. All of the industrial properties save the...

Mid-rise buildings framing a park give off Melbourne vibes, and that is good!

This suggests that outbound travel hasn't declined much: https://www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/article/calgary-air-travelers-are-still-heading-south-amid-political-tensions/ Maybe "elbows up" rings less true in Alberta?

More bad judgement than hypocrisy. Municipalities are provincial jurisdiction, so the Province is in its lane. Just because it can meddle in local politics doesn't mean that doing so is a good idea.

It is also grossly unfair. A cap on national emissions might sense. Caps on specific industries or regions are nothing but partisan. I'd favor an emissions cap on the 400 series highways or maybe the Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal airports. How about an emissions cap on the Federal government and...

The US system more or less guarantees perpetual campaigns. Enough sitting members of Congress and the Senate will face the wrath of increased prices and job losses to fear for their own re-election. I'm guessing it will take a few months for the tariffs to be rolled back. Nothing, not even...

And no Vancouver coverage

Yeap and it is exactly the reason the Canada government should sit on the sidelines and wait until the clown show is over. Too bad the election campaign has focused on a red herring rather than real issues

..and those opposed due to kids having to cross streets to go to school, waste created by dogs and climate change

You are watching The Apprentice - Executive Branch Edition and ignoring the "TV" part of "Reality TV". Trump doesn't have the authority to impose tariffs and Americans won't stand for higher prices. I suspect many business groups will be launching suits to end the madness.

Both being populists is a comparison targeted at the week minded. It reminds of the parodies from the 2006 Liberal campaign: "Stephen Harper has a dog. You know who else had a dog? Hitler. Adolf Hitler. That's who. Did Stephen Harper train his dog to attack racial minorities on command? We...

Fewer loyalties to the Laurentian Oligarchs and to the public sector. PP prioritization of issues, mainly cost of living, was right on. Unfortunately, the short termism of the electorate is focused on the red herring of tariffs.

The tariffs will be short term as the American public will reject the ensuing price increases, and Trump will inevitably be distracted by some other problem of his own creation. No Canadian action is going to influence the trajectory on tariffs. The British Empire was still strong in the 1890s...
