For how fast it was going had it hit say in a farmers field near Olds it would have created a crater 5 miles wide and 2000 feet deep.
From Calgary and Red Deer you would have under 2 minutes to get deep underground before the ejecta arrives with 400mph winds. In other words both cities pretty much destroyed.
