Rationale

Calgary's booming population demands municipal investment. Five levers, five different outcomes: calgary_police -> crime_rate (-0.25, d1); calgary_transit -> ridership (+0.45, d1); calgary_water -> water_quality (+0.60, d1); calgary_affordable_housing -> homelessness (-0.30, d2); calgary_parks -> quality_of_life (+0.20, d2). A case study in municipal budgeting under growth pressure.
