Alberta's Involvement in the Games

"Thank you so much for the wonderful day on the Alberta Train where we were able to net-work so well either at our seats or over the wonderful meals created by Chef Brad Smoliak and the staff of the Rocky Mountaineer.

I am still on a high today from a spectacular day with the Albertans! Continued success and thank you, thank you."
