The fact it has become a magnet can be shown as a positive as much as a negative.

That's the problem, there really isn't a good location for a safe injection site. Unfortunately for people in the Beltline, it's the area that makes the most sense. The Beltline was already struggling even before the safe injection site.

I think this issue fits in here. Pretty sad.

I have lots to say about this one, however it does not fit in the "crime in Calgary" thread as the article is not about crime. Will respond on the "where you choose to live" thread, where we've been talking about living in a condo versus not living in a condo.

That inner city red carpet inn has been a haven of crime for a long time. Not quite the new Cecil, however.

You call that inner city and yet my home is closer to the core and is not considered inner city. You will cling to whatever you need to push your agenda, eh.
