Ron Casey is Mayor of Canmore, a small community located 100 kilometres west of Calgary, in Alberta. Canmore was originally a mining town but in 1979 the mines closed and Canmore turned to tourism as a main source of income. Since 1988 Canmore has developed at an enormous rate. Despite this rapid growth the town has not neglected the environment. Wildlife corridors have been built so that enough green space is availiable for animals to move around without being disturbed.
