Montreal's Mirabel Airport sees zero passengers and is arguably the biggest failure of a major airport in the history of North America. In fact it is. Source.

I'm aware of Mirabel. But Montreal also has Saint Hubert that is operational.
And Vancouver does really have two international airports. I've flown to Vegas from both YXX and YVR. And I've flown from Calgary to YVR and YXX numerous times.
Given that YXX obviously makes enough money to stay operational, I wondering if it would be something worth doing in Calgary. As I stated in the first post, I'm not sure if it makes economic sense.
However you seem positive. So I'm interested to know why a 2nd Calgary airport makes
absolutely no economic sense. I am open minded.
