These days, CP represents not only a vast cross-segment of Flames fans, but a lot of Calgarians in general from all professions and ages. I think the CP of 2014 is a lot different than just a dark corner for nerds...it's probably the biggest (depending in what Beyond has numbers wise) internet forum for Calgarians in general on the internet.
I think CP is more active than beyond.ca which has dropped off in recent years.
