If you need a short layover in Houston, southbound is by far the better way to have it. You'll clear US customs/immigration in Calgary, so when you land you're already in the secured area and just need to get to the departure gate.

Coming northbound I wouldn't chance a tight connection, since you'll need to go through US customs/immigration which can take a huge amount of time if you happen to be unlucky.

YMMV and no guarantees, but I'd book the 1 hour connection if it was me.
