2 Days in Calgary, Alberta: The Cleanest City in the World

[@itsawander-fulllife360]

I live in Calgary and loved your video! Sometimes it's easy to forget how blessed you are, thank you for reminding me. Next time you're in the area you should do a video on Drumheller, Alberta's Badlands. The Royal Tyrrell Museum is world class, and I went there earlier this year dressed up in a dinosaur suit in an (unsuccessful) attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the most people dressed up on those suits. A great time was had regardless! So glad you enjoyed your trip to Alberta.

Rick, the Saddledome tour guide is amazing, the nicest person in Calgary

[@WereintheRockies]

He is amazing and made it so enjoyable

[@nafex3740]

Very Fun video buddy 👍 😂😂😂

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks 👍

[@EnglishFlorals]

Looking forward to watching this video! My husband and I are really enjoying your Alberta videos - please keep them coming. We would love to visit this part of Canada soon - it takes our breath away! Thank you for sharing.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks so much for commenting and for watching our videos. Means so much to us.

Interesting thing about Calgary Tower, too, is it was made in one continuous pour of concrete made over 24 days, a real accomplishment of it's time. It used to be the highest building when it was first built. Peace Bridge has had to have several repairs after vandalism. There is also the zoo on Prince's Island that is well worth the stop. Had no idea about the go karts. Definitely will check them out next visit

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing. Very cool.

[@BobJones-fb2je]

I live in Calgary and it’s nothing to special but this video makes me more grateful to live here. I know love living in Calgary again!!

[@tadatada1234]

it’s not the most exciting place but it’s definitely a great place to live it really feels great to come back after being on a trip

[@MojiBeau]

The bridge was actually not under construction again. It had glass panels all along it and someone broke all of them. They had to be fully replaced.

[@WereintheRockies]

Oh wow!

[@JackMontana69]

This video was 9 months ago and your comment was a month ago. See the difference?

[@Christoph52]

Thanks for visiting our beautiful city! FYI the peace bridge looks like that because some POS vandalized the whole thing last year

[@squamishfish]

The Bow river which goes right by Downtown Calgary has great fishing

[@JesusFriedChrist]

Next time check out Nose Hill Park and Fish Creek Park!

[@janczekaj2077]

Another Great Informative Video!!! Hey People, Make Sure to Get Matt & Cheryl's Travel Guides.!!! The written guides are SOOO Helpful for Planning and the Audio guides are so Entertaining, Rich with Great Stories of the areas you'll be seeing!!! They are worth every penny!!!

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for the kind words. We appreciate you!

[@ronmason1710]

FYI, we really do not get a lot of snow in the winter. A great many places in the states get much more snow. We do however, every winter get one or two bouts of cold weather. -30 Celsius is not uncommon, and it lasts for one to two weeks at a time. On the plus side of this, when the temperature is this cold there are absolutely no mosquitos to bug you.😄

[@WereintheRockies]

Very true! Haha!

Love your shirt, Matt! Where can I get that for my husband?

[@WereintheRockies]

Matt got it on Amazon amzn.to/4bNzOl2 Thanks for watching.

What month was your visit?

[@WereintheRockies]

August 2023

[@aleksandrsynyavskyy6262]

Let’s say quite clear city.

[@donmurray6362]

Calgary does not get a lot of snow. Its a semi arid climate and has periods of very warm spells in winter.

[@charlesgilbert2054]

Too bad the cleanliness hasn't extended to around my apartment building. haha.

[@WereintheRockies]

Darn. Haha.

[@cityboyis2]

Actually, the irony is that Calgary doesn't get much snow.

[@matth890]

Not under construction, some ass hole smashed all the glass and it would cold millions to replace

[@JesusFriedChrist]

Tip from a local on pronunciation: • “Cal - gree” ✅ • “Cal - gARy” ❌ • “Cal - guh’ree” ❌

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks

[@rocklorflett2942]

i was just there , there was human shit all over they train stations downtown ..

[@WereintheRockies]

Oh no! That's unfortunate.

[@hernancarpio2845]

How about homeless people on the street?

[@leonaperdue8784]

They are in every city or town these days

[@WereintheRockies]

Unfortunately usually every city has some.

[@scottbolwyn9916]

Um have you been to Portland Oregon? Calgary doesn't have homeless doesn't have homeless people if you compare it to other cities!!

[@cindymcgrath5698]

It is not as clean now. Constantly picking up garbage our street and see garbage blowing around everywhere.

[@codypendency9482]

I haven’t been in 2 years it was clean then I lived in downtown Edmonton last year and it was absolutely disgusting

[@5353Jumper]

Citizens who say "Constantly picking up garbage" is possibly why the city is cleaner than others. 😊

[@newttella1043]

You haven't visited NE Calgary, especially neighborhoods near the airport. Immigrants live in NE and they like the garbage, it's a reminder of the countries they come from.

[@cindymcgrath5698]

@@5353Jumper I am one of 2 on our block that do it.. I have now given up as there is too much garbage flying around.☹️

[@darioz5894]

Parts of Calgary are clean during the summer months, but it is not the cleanest city in the world and it's far from it. NE and SE parts of the city literally have areas with third world conditions thanks to Liberal Mayor failed policies, in the winter there is garbage everywhere, the infrastructure is crumbling due to mismanaged taxpayer dollars and the roads are on par with roads in the poorest parts of Eastern Europe. I was born here in 1981 and it's sad how badly the city has declined over the last 12 - 15 years all thanks to Mayors Nenshi & Gondek, along with heavy third world migration, homeless and drug addicts.

[@WereintheRockies]

Sad, thanks for watching.

[@Liberal_From_Prairies689]

"Cleanest city in the world"? That it is not. Someone is delusional.

[@WereintheRockies]

Haha, we didn't name it that.

[@factstology]

the cleanest city in the world? ever been to 1st SE and 7aveSw bruh? hahaahah

[@MultiCappie]

The problem with Calgary isn't its buildings or infrastructure...

[@GahelM]

Is this a joke? Calgary is nice but not clean. Poop in the streets of Downtown , and even in some buses. Rags, foods and other trash in the streets and bus shelter. I have seen cleaner.

[@BiagioOliverio-c7t]

While is Calgary is nice city, you need to live here to see real Calgary, infrastructure falling apart, cost of living getting is out of control, try to go out on the same areas when sun goes down and you will see a whole different city.

[@graciefolden2359]

This could literally be said for the majority of cities in North America that are similar ages. Save your money and move if it's that terrible for your life here 🤷‍♂️✌

[@BiagioOliverio-c7t]

@@graciefolden2359 it’s obvious that you have been grown up here to see the differences. I can go to every city in the world and will find beautiful place to see.

[@gs98999]

@@graciefolden2359Or how about instead of simply telling people to move away we try to stop all those things because he’s right. This is a beautiful city but it’s mismanaged and it’s growing way too fast that in another 20 years if nothing changes it will actually be like a big trashy city with many more issues.
