Yeah, I forgot about the damn towbar. Swissport here at YEG has one but apparently YYC doesn't.

The last couple A380 diversions here indeed did not go to the gate (we have an actual A380 gate and taxiways cleared for it) but we also have gigantic parking spaces on the main apron. I'd have to think that YEG will remain the preferred diversion even with the new barn, if it comes down to picking between the two unless distance to a trauma hospital is a factor in which case YEG fails bad.
