I dont think it's worth it. The San Jose Open is 250 level and it drew flies on the weekend. We're interested in the tournament because it's Milos but do we really want a tournament where the top seed is the 15th ranked player in the world? In Calgary the tournament might not even draw 4000. Vancouver, Granby and Rimouski have challenger events which at least feature a lot of Canadians.
In this same week Del Potro was winning in Rotterdam and Nadal was winning in Sao Paulo.
