Sylvan Lake losing the waterslides has to be a huge blow.
As for Banff, they are seeing record numbers of visitors. Did it seem like fewer people from Calgary are going there? If so, probably just an effect from Calgary's booming population. As the number of Albertans increases, there's less opportunity and greater cost for each individual Albertan to visit Banff. If the place is expensive and packed, people will look at alternatives further away.
