Well, by definition, its true.
http://www.answers.com/topic/parasite
An organism that grows, feeds, and is sheltered on or in a different organism while contributing nothing to the survival of its host.
One who habitually takes advantage of the generosity of others without making any useful return.
In this case, the parasite (non-resident) is feeding off of the host (Calgary) without paying the cost (i.e. contributing nothing). This is a host-parasite relationship.
