We’ve heard it for a few years now. Alberta being referred to as “Hollywood North”, and Calgary is a great place for “celebrity sightings”. In fact, right now Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson are in town filming a major film project! We caught up with Brad Parry, President & CEO of Calgary Economic Development and CEO of the Opportunity Calgary Investment Fund, for his thoughts on what has led to Calgary’s growth as a filming destination.
