 Often associated with the Flames and the Stampede, Calgary, located in Western Canada, is the country’s largest city with a population of over 1 million.
Host of the 1988 Winter Olympic Games, Calgary sits at the foot of the Rocky Mountains and is a major destination for winter sports and ecotourism.
The economy has boomed in the recent years with the oil bubble, as witnessed with the nearly unprecedented vitality of its the real-estate sector. The economy of Calgary is naturally centered on the petroleum industry, which is not to say that, agriculture, tourism, and high-tech industries are important contributors to the city's fast pace economic growth.
Actually, Calgary’s original growth has nothing to do with oil, but rather with railways. The railways were the means that cemented the country around confederation time and Calgary, through its geographic location, became a major hub. It is still a hub today. It is not by chance that the Canadian Pacific Railway is headquartered in Calgary.
First discovered in Alberta in 1902, oil did not become a significant industry in the province until 1947. As huge reserves were discovered after WWII, Calgary became quickly the focus of the ensuing oil boom.
