I really don't see how relevant it is how many buildings over 12 floors a city has...particularly when the point of discussion seems to be something along the lines of "Calgary's soon-to-be tallest may be 300 feet taller than ours but we have a few more buildings over 12 floors than you..." followed by "no you don't..." "yes you do..." etc.

Bottom line, Edmonton is a little late out of the starting blocks but it looks like their latest proposals are getting taller - hopefully they will start to see more big boys in the years to come. You can still build to nearly 500' there, which is not too shabby at all. Look at what Vancouver did with a similar limit pre Shangri-la.
