The IBC is not law in Alberta. The 2006 Alberta Building Code is law in Alberta.
I would suggest contacting Alberta Municipal Affairs to clarify building code issues and amendments. After that you should consult a structural engineer to clarify any issues concerning wind loads on buildings.
You could also call 403-268-5311, That is the front desk of Development & Building Approvals at the City of Calgary. Ask to speak to a commercial plans examiner.
