In the 2015 provincial election, overall voter turnout was 53%; youth voter turnout was much lower, at only 25% (Elections Alberta, 2015). There are a few factors that could explain Alberta’s lower levels of The fact that youth have felt disconnected doesn’t necessarily mean voter turnout: Alberta is the youngest province with a median age that they are disinterested and don’t care about particular issues. of 36.1 years (Statistics Canada, 2012), has the lowest levels of post- Youth are far from being apathetic about the issues that affect them. secondary enrolment in Canada, and the highest dropout rate for It’s about engaging with them in a meaningful way about the issues both university and college (Statistics Canada, 2008a).

    Private and Confidential. For X-Culture use only. 2019 X-Culture Global Business Week, Calgary, Canada Updated June 8, 2019 Challenge Presented by: Calgary Municipal Land Corporation (CMLC) Contacts: Kate Thompson, VP Development [email protected] Website: https://www.calgarymlc.ca/#home-intro THE CITY OF CALGARY The City of Calgary is referred to as the “Gateway to the Rockies”. Calgary sits in the sunny eastern foothills of Canada’s Rocky Mountains, where the Bow and Elbow rivers meet. It is the major urban center for the entire southern half of the province of Alberta, and is surrounded by an area of profound beauty with an unspoiled, resource-rich natural environment. It is no surprise to Calgarians that their home has been ranked among Top 5 most liveable city in the world by The Economist Intelligence Unit every year between 2009 and 2018 (#4 in 2018). The population density in Calgary is low, the quality of life is high, and housing abundant. Calgary’s population is young, well educated, entrepreneurial, community minded, generous and well paid. As individuals, Calgarians are family-focused, recreation lovers, that are committed to a healthy work-life balance. As citizens, Calgarians are enthusiastic supporters of community organizations: there are more volunteers in Alberta than the national average. The top priority of most Calgarians is sustaining the city’s superb quality of life. This means ensuring the economic, environmental, health and wellness, recreational, educational and social service advantages that Calgarians have today will be here in the future. A few helpful Calgary websites: Life in Calgary: www.lifeincalgary.ca/moving/calgary-facts Tourism Calgary: www.visitcalgary.com 1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Calgary Municipal Land Corporation (CMLC) was incorporated in 2007 as a wholly owned subsidiary of the City of Calgary to implement and execute the Rivers District Community Revitalization Plan – a public infrastructure program approved by the City of Calgary and the Province of Alberta to kick-start Calgary’s urban renewal.

Segment 2 extends from 16 Avenue N and Centre Street N south to the Elbow River in the Beltline. The alignment was updated in order to bring the project cost estimates within budget, manage construction risk, and best deliver the vision of the project. The updated Segment 2 alignment and station location plan includes: • surface-running LRT on Centre Street N; • a bridge over the Bow River; • 2.5 km of tunnel in the Downtown and Beltline; and • 6 stations (2 at surface, 4 underground). To develop the updated Segment 2 alignment, station location and concept plan, planning and design objectives were developed from internal and external stakeholder interests and from public feedback from Green Line public engagement sessions, community meetings and stakeholder workshops. These design objectives will be used to inform the development of the functional design for the project.
