No they don't, that is a ridiculous statement. Did the Stamps sell out all their games this year (or…any year)? No? Well that means the Flames are outdrawing them as they're at 100% of tickets sold and the Stamps are probably somewhere around 80%.
And let not forget the Stamps were the best team in the league this year, and as they got better, the attendance got worse. Here is an article that discusses it:

The CFL isn't even in the same realm as the NHL in Canada and the Stampeders aren't even close to the same realm as the Flames with regards to popularity in this city.
If you want an interesting question it would be to ask, who/what is more popular in Calgary, the Hitmen/WHL or the Stampeders/CFL? That one would probably be pretty close.
