CrossIron Mills (Rusty Iron)

You got to wonder why anyone from Calgary, Alberta will keep driving to small town Balzac?
You can get it all locally with out being stuck on QEII (quick exit at #2). One positive is crime is low. No transit or bus service for poor thieves.

The mall is frozen in time in the picture below.

It was developed by hook or crook. Don't want to be a MD tax payer. What about the poor Red Deer river? Where is all that sewage going? Basically the stores are outlets (cast offs sold here) with no real bargains.
