Canada is the best country in the world, and Calgary is beautiful city.

Weak people tend to dislike Calgary because it is a city of many oppourtunities and very few handouts. You welfare sucking types do better in BC.

And what have you done to make it better?

Way to completely use the song out of context. City of Blinding Lights is a tribute to the people of New York in the aftermath of September 11th.

@bartscheller
Partly true
From wikipedia
Developed from a song called "Scott Walker",1997 album Pop.
The lyrics were partially inspired by lead singer Bono's recollection of his first trip to London, and by the band's experience of playing New York City in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. Other lyrics refer to Bono's relationship with his wife. The song's underlying theme reflects lost innocence and was inspired by an image Bono saw of himself from the early 1980s.

@newhopecalgary Has 'Calgary' or it's people lost their innocence than?

@bartscheller
There is no way to compare Calgary to New York, what the people there suffered was terrible and we mean no offence. All cities have their problems and people who live there can be hurt in many ways, Calgary is no exception.
