*Their power is stronger than the City's power (the City is required to provide compensation for economic loss, a term that is not well-defined, whereas the province is not required to compensate), but is not often used. Individuals and the City can request the province to designate sites. Two sites in Calgary that were designated for the public good "over the wishes of the owner" in recent years include the Palace Theatre and old St. Patrick's Church. As far as I know the City has never designated over an owner's wishes.
