I really think you should go back to grade school, and learn about good estimating.# You really think that every Edmontonian went to WEM 19 times a year?# Even 3 is on the high side.
Okay maybe Edmontonians only visit the mall 3 times a year. We agree for the time being.

That means 17 million tourists visit the mall every year, which in turn means that nearly 47 thousand tourists visit WEM every single day. Almost 1.5 million visitors per month.

Roughly equal to the combined annual attendance at The Louvre and Disneyland. Not bad.

With that kind of traffic you'd think Edmonton would have an international airport. [/b][/quote]
Okay, maybe you got me there.

We'll settle at 10 million per year, as shown on the Economics Edmonton website.

Travel Alberta still markets WEM as Alberta's biggest tourist attraction.

Good enough for me.
