Colliers show Vancouver's office vacancy rate is 8.6% (the lowest in Canada), with 4.7m sq ft under construction, and Calgary's is 26.4% (the highest), with none being built.

Impressive Vancouver numbers for sure. That said, I can’t help but think of how much worse, ironically, Vancouver’s carbon footprint is compared to Calgary.
Flames have infinitely more Stanley cups than the Canucks. At least Calgary has that.
