Over the third quarter, Alberta recorded a net interprovincial migration outflow estimated at 3,300 people. The last time the province recorded a net outflow to other jurisdictions occurred in the fourth quarter of 1994."
Stats for the entire province do not speak for the City of Calgary on it's own. I'm sure Calgary itself still has net positive migration (or you might call it negative if you consider how many Canuck fans have moved to CGY to wash our dishes).
