I am a born and raised Calgarian, but have shared a french last name with my grandfather who moved out west from NB when he was in his 20's a long time ago. I also speak with people across Canada every day, so, I definitely know the difference between a Newfie and an NBer.
Anyways, I named my team Calgary Spitfires due to, 1) "Fire", similar to Flames, Calgary's beloved Hockey Team. 2) A Spitfire is a british WWII plane, the single seat aircraft was the latest and greatest of combat aircraft technology during World War II. Calgary and Alberta as a whole held a pretty big military presence during WWII and has a pretty big history as far as training/housing Canadian Military during the early 20th century. Kinda rolls off the tongue.
