Nenshi: Downtown Today and Year

nenshi: We had a rough couple of years in Calgary, Nenshi said as he prepared to ride on horseback through downtown, according to CTV. Today really is a day for us to all celebrate and to really celebrate community. This year is special. Nenshi said he's seeing a lot more optimism, noting Alberta added 41,000 jobs over the past year and the provincial government this week committed 1.53 billion to a major light rail transit expansion in Calgary. Certainly we're uncertain about the future, but things are better than they've been and I think most people feel that right now. I wouldn't say it's unbridled optimism. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
