Delegates are arriving in Calgary for WorldSkills 2009.

The arrival of competitors means five years of hard work will be paying off. "Really, it's about two-thirds of the size of the '88 Olympics if you look at the number of competitors. We have 40,000 hotel room nights booked, we have delegates from around the world, 51 countries, 900 competitors coming here and they're the best in the world," says Richard Walker.
