This is a bizarre new topic to anybody from most of the water industry, certainly Calgary and Vancouver. My neighbourhood is currently at the start of 5 years of construction noise right outside my window, having already lost a beloved, super-busy park:
...all to ensure that Metro Van has water , way before the construction starts.
Calgary had a 30-year plan at all times, and the main objection to it was that the plan conservatively assumed endless sprawl, though the utility championed density to bring costs down, and did not tire of pointing out that sprawling outward put ever-higher costs on the existing consumers who had to pay the ever-larger debt.
But "not planning" was unthinkable. Who the heck thought that one up in Halifax, and were they aware of Canada's immigration rates?
