No they didn't. Calgary has 25 seats, 14 of which are NDP. In 2023 there were 5 more that were lost by fewer than 1100 votes combined, which would have changed the outcome of the election. This was the best head-to-head showing by the NDP in Alberta ever.

And with high-visibility Calgary-centric Nenshi as leader, It's entirely possible that that balance flips.

Calgary isn't as conservative as you might want to believe.
