The MD's withdrawal from the CRP is less an indictment of the plan and more a swipe at the CRP itself. They were going to be unhappy with any plan that comes up, because any plan would require a supermajority of members representing 50% of the population (meaning the City of Calgary has an effective veto). They never had any autonomy to begin with. They are just children who are taking their ball and going home.

Next step? Well, it depends on what you think the lesser of two evils is. Either the city could force them to come to their senses by cutting off services, or we could go with annexation.
