We’re #1
Calgary is the best…in case you already didn’t know.
A new report from the Conference Board of Canada names us the most attractive city in the country. Not only did we top the Canadian list but we placed third in the continent.
Why? Well we *are* the greatest group of people to congregate in one city and our economy is booming…making our quality of life superb.
It was a feel good story for me to do this morning basically repeating and explaining why we are so awesome.
Believe it or not, some people on the street didn’t fully agree with the study. They said there are many problems here and we need some changes before becoming the best.
Mayor Bronconnier though says those people should try living in other cities and then move back. Their view of Calgary will probably change dramatically. Meanwhile all of the politicians I spoke to about this said there is room for improvement…even in a city that’s number one.
What do you think of Calgary?
I’ve lived in three cities in my life so far. I was born and raised in Toronto and a lot of people ask me if I ever plan on moving back there. The answer has always been “not likely”. Why would I leave a beautiful clean city with kind, generous, and gracious people?
Don’t get me wrong, I will always have a love for my home town, but Calgary is now my home and I don’t plan on taking off from the number one city in Canada.
