I live 6km North of Cochrane so have a 45km each way commute to a couple of blocks from the Calgary tower. On weekdays, If I leave home at 06h30 or 08h00 it takes 40 minutes eitherwise it is around the hour mark for any time in between. This may sound bad, but in 3 years there have only been a couple of occasions when either bad weather or Canadians crashing and blocking the roads have made for a really bad experience with the journey although on one occasion last Winter it took 4 1/2 hour to get to work

As far as I am aware Airdrie or Okotoks equals a commute along the horrors of Deerfoot every day

Yes, I should have included Deerfoot in that too.

Try not to have a commute along the Deerfoot either!
