WELCOME TO THE CITY OF CALGARY

RE/MAX® REALTY PROFESSIONALS
The STAMPEDE CITY is a great city in every sense of the
word and we're excited to have this opportunity to welcome you and be of assistance in
making your move as effortless and enjoyable as possible.
The Calgary of today typifies growth, optimism and economic
opportunity better than any other major centre in Canada. Whether this growth is expressed
in terms of popular increases, the expansion of job opportunities, or the proliferation of
downtown office buildings, industrial parks, housing accommodation and
cultural-recreational facilities, the answer is still the same - Calgary is a prosperous,
growing and exciting city to be in.
The SPIRIT OF VITALITY in Calgary is, to a large degree,
the results of the city becoming headquarters for the energy resource exploration and
development industry of Canada, including an evolution into the business and financial
capital of Western Canada. A strong and growing demand for a wide variety of specialized
job talents has been created by the enormous size of projects initiated in Calgary, the
capital investment required and the complex technology involved in their development. As a
result, Calgary is experiencing the good fortune of having within its population an
increasing percentage of well-educated, highly- skilled, cosmopolitan and affluent people
whose interests are diverse and sophisticated.
It is these people who continue to introduce a broader
variety of services and community activities that add much to the quality of life in
Calgary.
