They say Yahoo in Calgary.

We also say calgry, but usually only if born here They usually get a lot of foot traffic during stampede, as the display is usually either near near one of the entrances. what sounds like is different (from talking to people) is more people are actually stopping to chat and ask questions vs just looking at the cool military kit

The hats are gifted to the the CAF by the City of Calgary.

They aren’t $9.98 and they don’t come from Walmart. Mine is made by Smithbilt.
