I like Calgary, especially during the Stampede. I'd like it a lot more if it wasn't in Alberta though. Location and amenities around the city mean so much more to me than the buildings and people actually in it. That's what seperates cities like Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal from Calgary and Winnipeg.

Calgary is actually not bad at all and its close to banff and Jasper.

I'm from Winnipeg and its mostly sucks but there's lots to do there and the casinos fricken rock.

Saskatoon now that place sucks.
