    In addition to a previous post of:
    Calgary=oil money, lots and lots of dirty oil money

    We also have no sales tax and a flat rate 10% provincial tax. The only province with these advantages. Thanks to the dirty oil money.
    There is not as much character and culture here, both being a newer western city, and on the prairies. But the culture is getting better by the year. If you like winter sports, we have some of the best powder in the world only a few hours west in the mountains. Much of BC has this same advantage of course. We also have a man-made hill in town for some basic skiing/bording. We have numerous winter facilities from when we hosted the '88 winter olympics.
