Be Part of the Energy

Back in 2011 Calgary Economic Development introduced the "be part of the energy" slogan to attract workers in hopes of filling the labour shortage created by the rapidly expanding oil & gas sector in Alberta. To create unison and with the business community wanting to use it for branding Calgary the new slogan was also adopted by Calgary Tourism, Meetings & Conventions Calgary, Sport Calgary and Calgary Arts Development. Even though it was created mostly dealing with the energy sector, "be part of the energy" refers to much more in describing what Calgary is.
