As noted above, sports cards have exploded since the pandemic. And if you have any higher end rookies or rare inserts (Gretzky, Lemieux, Crosby, Ovechkin, etc), they will be worth a lot more than they used to be.

I would add that the hobby has changed a lot since the pre '90s or even since the late 2000's. I started getting back into it last year, but the cost and speculation/investment component is largely keeping me on the sidelines in terms of new releases.

OP: There are also a couple of stores in the South Calgary -- Eastridge Sports Cards near McLeod and Glenmore, and a smaller card/bookshop on Fairmont Drive.
