Calgary, Alberta

Don't spend too long here

Calgary exists as:

1. A massive economic engine fueled by oil

2. A base for people who are venturing off to the mountains.

If your purpose for being in Calgary falls under one of those two categories, then you will probably find what you are looking for. If you want to experience an interesting city, you’ll have to look elsewhere. Calgary is basically a large suburb with a small core area dominated by a sterilized central business district.

West Edmonton Mall, Edmonton

Just a big mall

Nothing particularly interesting about it except that it’s big.

Winnipeg, Manitoba

A real city

Winnipeg has a real advantage among prairie cities as it really is an urban city. It grew rapidly early on, and became the social and economic centre of the prairies and the west around the turn of the century – the Calgary of the early 20th century.

As a result its character is defined by its central urban areas rather than by its suburban growth. For the visitor, this means lots to see and experience: neighbourhoods such as the Exchange district, a lively cultural scene, lots of history to explore, etc.

It hasn’t quite figured this out about itself yet, though. The city tends to think of itself as the lowliest city in Canada, and its residents display a uniquely disparaging attitude towards their hometown. So give Winnipeg a visit and tell a local why you enjoyed it – you might give them a fresh perspective.
