Great Cities: Profiles in municipal excellence
When you think about the world’s greatest cities, what comes to mind?
New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo would certainly top most lists, both as cultural influencers and economic powerhouses. It probably would not occur to the average reader, however, that Calgary can learn similar lessons from St. Albert than it can from Singapore.
With Calgary’s growth in mind, the Calgary Chamber launched the Great Cities initiative, which looks to understand the importance of cities in the global economy, and the impact municipal decisions and actions have on the success of a community.
The greatest cities were not always great, and the Chamber’s Great Cities report seeks to frame the path to becoming great.
