Calgary, the third largest city in Canada. has seen one of the fastest recoveries of downtown foot traffic to pre-pandemic levels in North America.

As things settle into the current new normal, a recent study by commercial real estate firm Avison Young this spring found weekday foot traffic in downtown Calgary was at 49 per cent of pre-pandemic levels. And according to Statistics Canada also reported Calgary had one of the fastest growing downtown populations in the country, adding 8,100 people in the last five years.
