You can check out http://www.yycapps.com for a nice list of mobile developers in Calgary. Though, like kermitology said, most are iOS developers.

You might also want to go to some of the local events like Demo Camp Calgary (happening this Wednesday) to meet some of the devs in Calgary and see what they're working on.

Also, not to be rude, but I don't know any devs who wants to work with solely "idea guys". You either have to bring your idea with a fleshed out design/strategy/business model or your idea with cash.

At least once every couple months we'll get an email or a phone call from someone with an "amazing" idea for an app. They'd love to partner with us on the project and will pay us a percentage of the earnings if it takes off (no up front cash). It would also be great exposure for our company as there's a huge market for it. They don't bring any skills to the table other than their idea and perhaps experience in the field related to their idea.

App developers are in huge demand right now and the good ones are working on cool projects. If you're going to get the attention of the good developers you're going to need money and a great idea.
