Calgary
Safe, modern Calgary combines all the benefits of a big city with the
feel of a friendly, smaller town. Calgary is known for its hospitality.
In addition to the warm and helpful people, Calgary is a dynamic
city with a strong economy. The distinctive Western lifestyle is
reflected in the main industries of oil and cattle ranches.
Calgary is nestled between the Rocky Mountains to the west and the Prairies to the east. Students enjoy the legacy of the 1988 Olympics with Calgary's many sports and leisure venues around the city. Close to Calgary are many Provincial and National parks, offering beautiful views, excellent skiing, hiking and other outdoor activities.
While in Calgary, you can visit the Olympic museum, Calgary Science Centre and Zoo. You can try skiing and snowboarding at the Calgary Olympic Park.
You can even try a simulated bobsled at the Olympic Park! And for a real slice of Old West style living, you can study in July when the Calgary Stampede is held… a week of rodeo events like chuckwagon races!
