Calgary's sprawl problem

[Surrealplaces]

Seeing as we are getting closer to election time, this might be a good topic of discussion.

I recently received this e-mail for a petition entitled 'Let's Stop The Sprawl'

Let’s Stop the Sprawl.

Do you feel represented at City Hall? Help us build a Calgary that keeps everyone’s interests in mind.

If you want to read some of the comments on Facebook in reaction to the petition, click on the small like or comment icon at the bottom of the graphic. I have to say, there are some seriously clueless people in this city lol.

I can’t decide if people uneducated on a topic shouldn’t be allowed to comment or if it’s best that we keep them occupied.

I signed the petition. Reading through those comments makes me want to choke some people I understand people have different ideas of how they want to live, and it's fine, but so many of those comments are people who simply have no understanding of why sprawl is an issue, and many have no idea how a city works. Facebook has created an avenue for the clueless.
