I live in Banff. It has the highest city/town elevation in Canada at approx. 4,700 ft ASL. Although one of the highest landmarks are nearby in Kananaskis Country with Highway 40 at approx. 7,000 ft ASL. The highest point on the Trans Canada highway is halfway between Calgary and Banff at approx. 4,600 ft. ASL.

whoever answered this do you know the cities with the highest elelvation in Latin America?

Whoever answered this is also giving incorrect information.. the highest point on the TransCanada AS STATED on the transcanada website is in Kicking horse Pass (BC / Aberta Border) being 1643m where as what THIS above person stated is only 1410m.

So as usual, someones 'bull' crap mis-informs the 'learning'

This question wants to know which "city" and a city is generally understood to have a population of a certain amount, say arbitrarily over 6,000 people (although I cannot find a Cdn. reference that actually states at what population a town becomes a city).

Populated communities in Canada by HIGHEST ELEVATION:

Lake Louise, Alberta: 5,449 feet (1661 m) - Pop. 777

Banff, Alberta: 4,537 feet (1383 m) - Pop. 6,700

Elkford, British Columbia: 4,265 feet (1300 m) - Pop. 3,000

Sparwood, British Columbia: 3,740 feet (1140 m) - Pop. 3,618

Kimberley, British Columbia: 3,663 feet (1110 m) - Pop. 6,139

Airdrie, Alberta: 3,573 feet (1089 m) - Pop. 39,822

Lake Louise is considered a hamlet; a small settlement with less than 300 homes). Banff still calls itself a town as do Elkford and Sparwood. Kimberley refers to itself as a "small city" (?) yet their population is less than the town of Banff.

So Kimberley would be the highest "small city" but three other towns and a hamlet are higher in elevation, and Airdrie has the largest population but ranks sixth in elevation.
