Nestled in the stunning Rocky Mountains within minutes of a world heritage wilderness park, three provincial parks, the world-class Canmore Nordic Centre, six breath-taking golf courses, and an international airport, Canmore is a community with a vision, based on the conviction that environmental sensitivity, social health and economic sustainability are essential to its wellbeing. 

Capitalizing on the opportunities presented by the 1988 Olympics, Canmore has grown from a mining town with a once uncertain future, to an international tourist destination with a growing reputation for rejuvenation and adventure.

The community is home to an energetic and well-educated population that values a healthy and vigorous outdoor adventure lifestyle to recharge their entrepreneurial drive.  They are keenly aware of the fine balance between social health, economic growth and a sustainable environment, demonstrating leadership and engagement necessary to protect the pristine natural environment for the enjoyment & wellbeing of future generations.
