Not sure what your joint financial situation is like but what about a hotel room in Red Deer for her work days? If this is a job that she loves or isn't willing to leave, compromise by getting a place in Airdrie. She could potentially drive up the morning of the first day before her shift and drive home after she's off the second day. There are tons of cheap hotel options in Red Deer and it's "only" a 70-80 minute drive.
Buy her satellite radio or something to make her drive easier for bonus points. Seriously tho, you don't want to move on her behalf and you don't want her moving just for your benefit as she will never let you live it down if she doesn't like Calgary. For your joint happiness, consider something like this.
