“… in Calgary there’s really only one transportation choice that matters: the car. If you choose another transportation method, you’re an aberration. Your choice doesn’t really count. Because really, who wants to ride their bike around the city or take the bus? I’ve heard both people in the development industry and local politicians talk this way, and they’re completely serious. They can’t imagine able-bodied people riding their bikes year-round, nor can they fathom why anyone would want to leave their car at home and take the train.”
