Warring for the convention trade; luring the meetings is tough but the money is good

Article Abstract:

Conventions in Alberta generated $160 million in direct revenues, and $388 in indirect revenues in 1984. Alberta's convention centers compete with 14 in Canada, and more than 235 in the U.S. Alberta has the added disadvantage of being unknown, so that site promotion is essential.
