The fine staff at Fox Canada threw a grand opening party at the brand new Canadian distribution center/head office located in Calgary, Alberta. Not only did they have a DJ pumping beats all night and free food/bevies for the guests, but also had the fine builders from Joyride 150 fly down and build them a small skate park for the party.
Champagne, cotton candy and mini burgers. A few of many delights served throughout the night.
Just over 400 guests showed up for the gathering.
Canadian Fox MTB athletes Paul Genovese and Garrett Robertson put on a show for the guests on the freshly built ramps.

It wasn't your typical MTB sausage party...

I love how Canadians battle over which city sucks and which city is nicer, but if two Canadians met each other lets say in Europe for example it would be ' hey buddy! where you from? T-Dot, cool man! ' Canadians typically don't like Americans, so shouldn't we like each other?
I'd rather live in Vancouver than anywhere else in Canada but dont make fun of T-Dot. Blue Jays, the Hip, summers that are long and actually hot, they have winter, Maple Leafs.
Overall I'd probably say yes to Vancouver over Whistler, since there is so much more to do in certain ways. Also the sacred village is 1 1/2 hrs away from DT.
I'm gonna take a guess at why Calgary. Less provincial taxes, so bringing product over the border is cheaper. Cheaper to build or rent a facility then Vancouver. And/or still very central that you could potentially overnight a package to either coast. But I thought they already had one in Calgary.
