"Once homes are filled with mortgage-laden suburbanites, developers walk away with their cash, all while pushing council to build out yet another set of communities.

The risks and costs of sprawl are socialized, shared by the city as a whole, while the profits are privatized."

But COUNCIL's hurting #YYC. Sure 🙄
