text: In Calgary, property taxes almost doubled in the last four years. Plus, the province levied a carbon tax. Everything is increasing but wages: labour oversupply keeps them low. Measured unemployment hit 10% (actual over 20%). This Committee was made up of pro-Olympic supporters - of course they were going to find it feasible. With an election in the fall, of course they were going to say more study needed. Municipal councillors are getting contacted daily to say no to this insanity - they are too scared to hold a public vote. Hope the whole city council is replaced with regular folks who stop the crazy spending.
