I also don't see Calgary surpassing Vancouver. With this downturn looking like it will be a tame version of the 80s collapse, we're in for an extended (3 years +) or moderate growth, and possibly with a new reality after its over. I could see Calgary hitting 2.1 million when Vancouver hits 3 million, closing the gap from the current 1.1 million to about 900 000, but that's probably the best we could hope for in the mid-term (15 years or so)...

Re-evaluate that assumption after Vancouver's housing bubble bursts.
