Some notes about them for my future reference:

Apparently, they offer funding to some MS applicants:
computer science calgary - thegradcafe.com

However, their regular application fee is about $119 USD ($130 CAD) for non-Canadian residents. Also, this post (Canadian CS Departments) says they are awful without saying why.

Maybe one reason they offer funding:

You can expect it to get as cold as -30 degrees Celsius (-22 degrees Fahrenheit) in winter, to as warm as +30 degrees Celsius (+86 degrees F) in summer.

But they seem good for software engineering research:

Their acceptance rate was a little less than 40% with about 150 applicants in a previous year:
