[URBAN NOTE] Four notes on changing cities: Kingston, Calgary, Vancouver, Los Angeles


  • The Princess Street corridor of Kingston is booming, but too much? I really must get out there to see. Global News reports.

  • That Calgary has seen the introduction of basement suites blocked is a problem for that city. MacLean's examines.

  • Gary Mason dislikes the increasing unaffordability of Vancouver for young people, over at The Globe and Mail.

  • CBC shows how a new indie coffee shop in Los Angeles relates to gentrification in Hispanic and black neighbourhoods.

Yet another story, about a story, about complaining idly about Vancouver. Christ almighty you'd think nothing else ever happens in Canada.
