Default ExPats in Calgary

Does anyone know if there's a group of ex-pats who get together in Calgary?

There's loads of us from BE dotted around the city and environs. We don't really get together. Or if we do, I wasn't invited.

I even bump into Brits that, shock horror, are not members on this forum. How does that work?

If enough people are interested maybe we could arrange something.

There are a huge amount of Brits that work with Mr Chookie, and not one of them is a member of BE...

I have never been invited to a meet up either...

Maybe nobody has thought of it before...I know we must have a wide range of ages, interests, family situations, but we do have one thing in common...British

No. Google www.meetup.com and then put in your city. I think if you enter "britishexpat" in the site it will link you to the calgary meet up group. Good luck.
