Its Cal-Gah-Ree. The middle syllable is quick and sometimes pronounced "guh".

Cal-gree skips the middle syllable altogether and can be acceptable when speaking fast but isn't really right either. Not quite a Toronto with a silent second t situation, but close.
I prefer to use the Nault version. "Caggy"
