Sort of.

Calgary has hosted 3 major events on the Worldwide Stage in the past 20 years.

First, the Winter Olympic Games in 1988.

Second, the G8 Economic Summit in 2002.

And then the Juno awards in 2008.

For a city of just 1 million people, that is very good. Just bear in mind that there are about 500 cities in the world at least as big as Calgary. We're up against a lot of competition.
