The power outlet plug is same as US (110 volts). Telephone line same as well. Area code for Calgary is 403, area code for Vancouver is 604/778/250. Will you be driving your TL up here or a rental?

Dude, for something different in Vancouver you may want to check out Wreck Beach. And for a bit of fun try driving the Sea to Sky Hwy (Hwy 99) to Whistler/Pemberton. This is where they introduced the TL to journalist back in 1998. There you'll really wish you had your TL in those short passing lanes.

Calgary-->Vancouver is 975km or 606 miles. It'll take about 10-11 hours to drive.

Have fun on your trip here.
