Calgary defines what a city should be. It is
a city of helping hands and hard-eyed handshakes. It is a progressive,
business-focused community that embraces a uniquely western spirit. It
is a community that was built, and is still being built by dreamers, risk-takers
and makers of deals.
While it began as a home to cattlemen, it has become
the rig worker for the nation and it is emerging as a bold technology
player. Calgary is business. Building on a strong foundation and an international
reputation as Canada's energy centre, Calgarians have worked extremely
hard over the past several years to stabilize their economy through the
development and growth of its diverse industry base.
While the oil and gas industry remains an extremely
strong sector, other industries like high technology, business services,
and the financial sector are emerging as bold players in Calgary's vibrant
and dynamic economy.
All trends and economic indicators suggest that Calgary
will continue to experience a very strong economy in the future. Its highly
skilled, well educated, entrepreneurial workforce has been one of the
primary contributors to the overall development and strengthening of Calgary's
diverse and dynamic economy.
