The only other team that has higher attendance regularly is Saskatchewan.

Stamps usually get 27,000-30,000 on an average game, which is pretty good for that crappy stadium.

Here is a link to the CFL schedule that shows the attendance at each game.

Hell, Sask only had 26,159 this week and Calgary had 29,225.
This. Calgary has had exemplary attendance for most of the season so far. Sure, McMahon seats around 35,000 (IIRC) but averaging around 27,000-28,000 per game is very healthy attendance. Cgy fans are just as dedicated as those from Saskatchewan!

McMahon stadium is showing its age but I think a few upgrades, like putting in actual chair seating everywhere (rather than just bench seats in certain sections) would make it more comfortable for fans.
