Big Hill Springs (between Calgary and Cochrane) might work as well

This park is closed for refurbishment at the moment.
For suggestion in the NW I concur heading west/north of town is best. It's likely just as close or closer than Nose Hill (for me anyway) and you would be away from the light pollution if viewing to the west or north. At mentioned earlier, the schools in Springbank would be good. Edge is probably the closest and with the airport nearby there is plenty of open space that is dark.
