Calgary is the most friendly, vibrant city in Western Canada. Located in a scenic valley where the Bow and Elbow rivers meet, Calgary's outdoor playground is truly breathtaking. Within an hour's drive, you can enjoy hiking, skiing and mountain biking in the majestic Rocky Mountains, Kananaskis Valley or Banff National Park.

As Canada's energy capital, and Western Canada's business capital, Calgary is now home to the second largest concentration of corporate offices in the nation. While Calgary's economy has been primarily shaped by the resource sector, its aggressive diversification efforts have resulted in the growth and development of the technology, tourism, manufacturing and service sectors. Due to its central location, Calgary has developed into a major distribution hub for goods and services throughout the Pacific Northwest region.
