I don't think that they are actually changing the colours of all of the buses. They are just giving the lines colour names as part of the whole "we're kind of like the LRT" sort of thing that they are trying to emphasize.
Edit: I just saw in another article that they are doing a special colour on 3 buses - one for each of the new lines. Simple marketing really, and won't really create or solve any operational issues for Calgary Transit, I would imagine.
