Many of you might be aware of the issues surrounding the Calgary Airport Expansion and the inflammatory discussions/concerns about building a tunnel for access to Calgary's northeast. If you aren't, check out this article to get informed. TUNNEL FUNDING
Suffice it to say that the city of Calgary (who had the gall to spend $25 million on a footbridge) has finally ponied up to $90 million they had for the project but the Alberta Provincial Government still won't supply their portion.
I understand that, largely, this is a municipal issue and the Alberta Provincial Government is hurting for funds (insert sarcasm here) but aren't the citizens of Northeast Calgary ultimately a subset of Alberta citizens and deserve provincial funding to be used to enrich their quality of life?
Do you have an opinion on the subject?
