Calgary is bidding on the 2023 Canadian Youth Chess Championship and Canadian Open.
I think they were very close to finalizing the details of the hotel and event space though had to pull back a bit to follow the required process from the Calgary Tourism people. I have had extensive discussions about this project with Steve Sklenka, President of the Calgary Chess Club and also with the Calgary Tourism representative who expressed strong interest in this event even before Steve contacted me somewhat independently. I have great confidence in Steve and his team to put together an outstanding pair of events.
We are concurrently talking with the Edmonton Tourism people and Rafael Arruebarrena about a complementary youth event after the Calgary events.
