    I've lived in Hamilton, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary. You would have a hard time taking me away from Calgary. Fresh clean air. Big blue skies. Good people. I love it.

    Calgary is a place you don't appreciate if you grow up there. I grew up in Calgary, and have moved to London, England -- I appreciate it much more now that I'm living somewhere else. The video shows it well, Calgary has it all. Don't take it for granted if you live there, it's a rising city, only getting better.

    I'm Mexican, and my aunt lives there... I've been in Calgary 4 times.... I REALLY LOVE IT. Haters, deal with it. Calgary is the best city.

    Make your Calgary glass half full or better yet, embrace the good fortune you have in living here & realize that your 3/4 full glass could be brimming with the pride of living in a great city! Born & raised here and after 50+ years of traipsing the globe from Lagos to Kathmandu and Colombo to Copenhagen, I always embrace this city when I return and am proud and honoured to promote what we have wherever I go. So quit complaining and help to make this a better city by what you to do make it so!

    I visited Calgary in 2016 and stayed in The Art Hotel. They had a TV channel that continuously repeated this video. I enjoyed this song and video so much, I must have watched it a hundred times while in the hotel. It made me fall in love with the city and it's people. I still regularly watch the video and fondly reminisce my visit. I look forward to returning some time in the future.

    I was there for almost two months, went home to Montreal, and now moving back for good. Montreal is a beautiful city, but I guess Calgary is the best place to fulfill your dreams. :)

    I'm from Edmonton. I love the mountains, Heritage Park, Inglewood Bird Sanctuary, the Zoo, Canada Olympic Square, Community Natural Foods, Spolumbo's, Nick's, and how all the Public Libraries are easily accessible by bus. I enjoy the Hitmen, the Stampeders, the Flames, there is an awesome transit bus and train system that I use to get to all of the above. I don't need multiple pairs of black shoes, just a pair of black western boots, and since there was snowfall in the video, it's also honest.

    I moved to Calgary from a small town in Nova Scotia, and Calgary actually is an awesome place. If you look for negativity, thats what you'll find. I feel a sense of pride for my adoptive city when I watch this video.

    I don't understand what some of you are talking about! Calgary is amazing! I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; lived in New York for 13 years and I have been here for 8. Calgary is the best kept secret as far I am concerned! Yeah, no beaches but I love the sunshine and the friendliness of people - except of those, I guess, who left pretty nasty comments! AND... the director of the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra is BRAZILIAN! I'm telling you... Calgary rocks!

  • @GREENPOPPERS
    @GREENPOPPERS 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is so true, getting skate tickets downtown while traveling at a walking pace feels awesome. There is a new proposal out by Calgary Association of Skateboarding Enthusiasts to put some more parks in. Check out their site.

    Completely agree! I have lived all over the world, traveled and explored much of this planet, but I choose to live in Calgary... I was raised here and no place has ever measured up to this space; there is a joy, spirit and vibrancy to this city that cannot be described. It beats in the heart of every Calgarian.

    I first came in 1984 and have seen incredible positive change since then.Calgary has been a great place to raise my family, build a business and earn a great living.
    It has a really good live music scene with many great local musicians and venues. It is developing a good arts and cultural scene as some amazing local talent and more people from elsewhere come and bring their worldview and outside influence to it.
    - true its conservative but is full of decent, friendly, open positive people also

  • @Chazster31
    @Chazster31 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Well done guys! Tthis is clever and well done marketing piece for people to post on social network sites and drum up interest in our city. But seriously...What's with the haters that are ripping it apart? My guess is that they're not even from here... guess what? If you don't like it, then move, no one is begging you to stay. We get it, you hate the weather, the peace bridge, the night life, the traffic, blah blah blah. It's tired - take your negativity back to where you came from haters.

  • @eyow84
    @eyow84 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Props to local musicians Jocelyn and Lisa, I actually discovered their music via Reverbnation a few weeks ago, prior to watching the video. The song is dope.

    I am a born and raised Calgarian and I love my city! There really is a great vibe here and oh so much to do. I can travel all over the world, but I will always come back to Calgary. It's home! Great job on capturing a glimpse of what this great city is all about.

  • @MrMonkeyslick
    @MrMonkeyslick 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    fantastic video - I love that even though we are a world class city in so many different aspects that we still need to market ourselves to attract even more, such smart and well done thinking. This video has captured a lot of the amazing energy in only 2:49, I am grateful to live here and fortunate to have been born here. Calgary Rocks!!!

  • @dannycecchetto4115
    @dannycecchetto4115 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @demosthenesalive
    @demosthenesalive 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would showcase the things that make this city special. Proximity to the mountains; winter (be honest); the museums (we have two really good ones at least); the Jubilee Auditorium; trade shows; festival season (we have a festival literally EVERY weekend from late spring to early fall). What I saw was nothing but GENERIC shots of people smiling. I don't give a crap about that kind of thing... INSPIRE ME to enjoy Calgary; don't show me generic stuff!!! (and 500 chars is really short)

  • @LordDrakos
    @LordDrakos 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    There is no such thing as a perfect city. The video does a great job at highlighting some of the things that make Calgary great and diversified. Calgary has a flourishing economy with a very low crime rate compared to most major cities. Also, their backyard is surrounded by some of the most beautiful wilderness and mountain ranges in the world. I love Calgary.

  • @devious222
    @devious222 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Also, others move here for the outdoors and proximity to mountains. Again, this means that people are less likely to invest and spend time in the actual city itself! There are perks to Calgary, but don't move here if you want a textured, dense, and diverse urban experience. It doesn't exist.. yet. For those that do live here, please help us make it a more interesting place!

  • @danileighsmythe
    @danileighsmythe 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think it's great. They obviously put a lot of hard work and energy into making a destination video with high production value and beautiful imagery!
    Way too much summer in there though. Maybe more x-country skiing, tobogganing, drinking hot chocolate in the snow, zoo lights and such would help the video resonate more with locals. We aren't your target market, but we are ambassadors for the city. Great video overall though,

  • @To411u

    RIGHT HERE
    c 2012 Mike Shields (SOCAN)
    Right here is where I live
    It’s where I breathe
    It’s where I feel every moment going by
    It’s where I’ve come
    To feel the sun
    And the freedom of this endless open sky
    And I am here
    Yea I’m right here
    Right here is where I think
    It’s where I dream
    It’s where that dream has got some hope of coming true
    I take a chance
    And join the dance
    I feel there’s nothing out there that I couldn’t do
    And I am here
    Yea I’m right here
    Right here I feel love
    I feel safe
    I feel welcomed to the day with open arms
    There’s something new
    A change of view
    A kaleidoscope of fantasy and charms
    Instrumental/vocal break
    And I am here
    Yea I’m right here
    And I am here
    Yea I’m right here
    Right here it feels good
    I wish you could
    Be with me…
    Right here

    Did you actually watch that video - there are plenty of kids, the mountains appear, and the Stampede is there too. It's showcasing all of Calgary and it needs to appeal to the younger generation too - which it does.

    Great Job. I was wary about the new branding campaign (the lowercase c still doesn't make sense to me) but y'all should be proud of what you've done here.
    People tell me Calgary is such a boring city, that there's nothing going on. I don't get that, there's so much going on this city. The arts and culture scene is pretty big, if you can't find something every night of every week to do, then you're not looking up from your smartphone screen..

    Downtown Calgary has great urban fabric and it's improving exponentially every year. Look at the billions of dollars worth of condo developments they've seen alongside urbanization projects in the Beltline and East Village. Calgary has lots of trendy areas in and around downtown you just have to get out of the burbs is all.

    The video is nice but I thought it was a shopping commercial. I had to read the explanation to find out it's a video about how cool my city is. I love Calgary, I've lived here most of my life. My husband moved me away for a short and I demanded we come back but as far as a Calgary ad campaign goes, it could be better. My first response honestly was "so where do I buy the car." And seriously, I preferred "Heart of the New West." I remember that one.

    There were kids, families, older people, the mountains, the Stampede, they showed Calgary's ethnic mix, about the only thing they left out was a flock of Canada Geese, LOL! What I thought was cool is some of the business people looked to be 30+. If I was an American with some career years left in me, and a family, this video would prompt me to check out business opportunities in Calgary.

  • @buur4127
    @buur4127 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Here since 1984, loved it then with little over 600k population. Bough first brand new house (little ove 1000sf) in 1987 for $64k, now it costs 300k, people make just 50% more than then. Deerfoot trail is now a parking lot during rush hours, city doubled in population. Recreational places overcrouded especially after last flood that ruined infrastructure. Wish it were still as it was in the 90s. Vidoes like this attract more people from the east who either compete with not so good employment opportunities anymore or end up homeless if not having good trade or proffession. Locals get it tougher to compete over workplaces. We had good emenities compensating for harsh winters before, now it's becoming just a "rat race" city like other overpapulated cities, nothing compensating for the harsh winters. 30 year long opinion.

    Calgary is the best. This amazing city doesn't deserve hate, everyone is just biased. Since I'm from Calgary, I think Calgary is better than any other city. But if I was from Vancouver or something, I'd think Vancouver was better. It just depends on you. Calgary is great, doesn't matter if you like it or not.

    Just so I'm not all negative, this is a great looking vid and I'm glad you're promoting Calgary. You're trying to attract people here, so obviously you aren't going to show footage of blizzards and police tape and flashing lights (that stuff happens everywhere).

  • @ImbaSoulDC
    @ImbaSoulDC 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are right, transit is a complete joke compared to major American and European cities, and it seemed like it was built without expansion in mind. However, Calgary is starting to slowly change, and it is a very clean city with lots of potential. It has a great international airport, and I believe efforts are being made to get a better transit system going. Anyhow, it's not a world class city, but it does have some things going for it.

  • @skaarlett1
