I think Edmonton has done a great job of this. We could learn something.
That said, I think a few skywalks would be a good idea. Let's not go crazy but I like the idea of connecting Scotia center to midtown. I can picture the river center being connected to a hypothetical river center 2 one day as well.

I apologize for saying 8 months, 4 months of absolute awful weather, 4 months of indecisive spring/fall lol. Someone literally died two years ago downtown of freezing to death and it's not the only one. I'm fairly sure I have rosacea because of Saskatoon's winters. This cold weather isn't healthy for anything and we have to stop faking that it's ever going to be pleasant - we'd definitely have tenfold the population we have now if it wasn't for our winters - we also don't have geothermal to tap into like Iceland, so we need skywalks and other indoor locations to "cope" with winter. It will never be enjoyable.
