Default Calgary vs Edmonton

Hi all

Apologies if this question has already been asked but I'm currently a coded pipe welder/welding inspector wanting to emigrate with my wife and 3 children. I'm applying for jobs and hoping to go the TWP route. Where would be the best place work wise and to raise my family? I do have family living in Calgary but would like to hear positive and negatives on both?

Many Thanks

Calgary better to live
Edmonton better for your work

In my opinion.

In a word, Calgary white-collar, Edmonton blue-collar.

Predominantly.

Well I could have used the economical German word for it, Bleibeverhandlung but I wasn't sure if anyone (but Novo) would understand.
