Edmonton tried to fix its housing shortage with multi-family buildings. Some Edmontonians really don't like that. (youtu.be)

You live in the city. You sleep in your home. This is what suburbanites don't understand. When you actually live someplace where there are things to do, the idea of wanting a bunch of extra air to lord over starts to feel a little bit silly.

How arrogant lmao. Typical city rat who thinks nothing happens outside of their concrete hellscape. You know nothing about where I live.

There's plenty of things I can do here with the added bonus of not having to deal with shit neighbors.
