Canada

Calgary city skyline in warm evening light

Calgary is a major city in the western Canadian province of Alberta. It is the largest city in Alberta and the third-largest municipality in Canada by population after Toronto and Montreal. It is located where the prairies meet the foothills, and with the Canadian Rockies visible to the west. Calgary is famous for its high quality of life, vibrant energy sector, friendly people, and entrepreneurial spirit of its diverse communities. I would like to move to Calgary because of its low cost of living as compared to Ontario. Also, most of my friends are already residing in Calgary, which will help me build a bigger social circle. I am also encouraged to learn that many Canadians change provinces for better job opportunities and better standard of living.
