Exposure in 1988, the world without internet, is wholly different than exposure in 2026, when people in theory will be able to take virtual reality trips to Banff. 1988 should be wholly disregarded from the conversation here, the world is a staggeringly different place now. In 1988 you could only learn about Banff through encyclopedias and travel agents. Suffice to say it's a little different now with Google Street View allowing someone to know Banff inside and out without having ever stepped foot in the town. The vast majority of the world that can afford to travel likely already knows about Banff. The level of new exposure will be very, very minimal, certainly not worth being considered a plus to hosting.
