no idea.. never really looked into it. Calgary does have more to it than
just
agriculture and oil, tho id be hard pressed to give any GOOD examples. :)

industry

ill check out the NAN books more thoroughly.. i live near Sentry Box, so
thats not
hard. If i dont find anything, im gonna look into doing something about
that, if anyone
wants to help :)

i figure that calgary would still be around, just not as 'industrial' or
'commercial' as
it is now. There are all sortsa 'spiritual' things about it.. one of the
reasons it always
gets a lot of supernatural attention in other RPGS (speciffically Beyond the
Supernatural
and Rifts), so shamantic mages might do stuff around here. And because its
quite out of
the way, it could make for decent secure areas for corp research.
