Ranking method

CA Influence Index™ (CII): how we grade Calgary influencers

CII is a market-relative score from 0 to 99. It combines local audience fit, engagement against creators of the same size, average Reel views, and estimated real-audience share. The creators above are ordered by this score, not by follower count.

25%of the score

Audience fit

How much of the audience sits in the Calgary market. Full marks once 30% of it is there.

30%of the score

Engagement

Likes and comments against creators of the same size here. Full marks at 3x that median.

30%of the score

View power

Average Reel views against follower count. Full marks at twice the following.

15%of the score

Audience quality

Share of followers reading as real people. Full marks at 90%.

Engagement is scored against the Canada median for a creator’s own size: around 0.8% under 50K followers, around 0.6% above 250K. Both are rounded, because the study measures them by search rather than by census.

  • A+90-99
  • A80-89
  • B65-79
  • C50-64
  • Dunder 50

The score is capped at 99 so it never implies certainty. Read the full CA Influence Index methodology. The benchmark is local, not global. Here is the market behind it.

Market benchmark

The Canadian Instagram market behind this ranking

The 25 influencers above against the Canadian Instagram market: each row puts their median next to the market's.

Read the Canada Creator Economy Report - the measurement this chart is scored against.

How the selected 25 compare with Canada

  • Pink = the 25 Calgary influencers above
  • Grey = a typical Canadian Instagram account with 10K+ followers
  • Each bar is a median, not an average, so one very large account cannot pull a row up

Median engagement rate

selected 25 list: 2.6%
Canadian influencers: 0.7%

Median Reel views per post

selected 25 list: 30,104
Canadian influencers: 4,500

Source: the Click Analytic Canadian market study, measured 2026-09-15. The grey bars are the Instagram accounts with at least 10,000 followers whose creator location is Canada. That population is counted twice by two runs: the market study above and this median run, which agree to within twenty accounts. The bars are rounded because a median found by search is a bracket rather than a point; the pink bars are computed from the 25 cards above.

The CA Influence Index scores against the Click Analytic Canadian market study, which counts 62,935 Instagram accounts with at least 10,000 followers and an inferred creator gender. That is a narrower count than the screened pool above, which does not require a gender.

Why Arshia Rezaei-Afsah is the #1 Calgary creator

Arshia Rezaei-Afsah tops this ranking with a CA Influence Index of 95 (A+), the highest among the selected accounts on this page. The source pool contains 4,168 Calgary accounts in the 10K-1M follower band.

The score breaks down like this

  • Audience in Canada46.0%100/100
  • Engagement against the market median for this size1.97%, 2.5x84/100
  • Average Reels reach against follower count2.5x100/100
  • Share of the audience that is real89%99/100

That combination is why an account of 55,958 outranks profiles more than 17x its size on this page.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Calgary questions, answered from the screen and the cards.

01Who qualifies for the Calgary page?

Calgary-based creators between 10,000 and 1,000,000 followers whose audience is at least a tenth Calgary, with 1% engagement, 60% real followers, 1,000 average Reel views and a post in the last month. From the people we read, the 25 highest CA Influence Index scores are published.

02What puts Arshia Rezaei-Afsah first?

An A+ at 95: 139,257 average Reel views on 55,958 followers, two and a half views per follower, with 46% of the audience in Calgary.

03How much of each audience is in Calgary?

Between 11% and 51%, with a median of 28%. Living in Calgary and being watched in Calgary are two different measures, and the city tile on each card reports the second.

04How are the grades built?

From four inputs scored together: Calgary audience fit, engagement adjusted for size, Reel views per follower and audience quality. The mix on this page is 2 A+, 6 A and 17 B; recency only gates entry.

05Where does the Canadian benchmark come in?

As national context: median engagement across these 25 is 2.58%, against Canadian reference points of 0.79% for 10K to 50K followers and 0.62% at 250K and above. Its Canada-wide audience figures do not compare with the Calgary city share. The benchmark comes from the Canada market study: 62,935 Canadian Instagram accounts with at least 10,000 followers, measured in September 2026.

06Does this cover every creator in Calgary?

No. Twenty-five people, ranked by the CA Influence Index from the accounts we read; the rest of Calgary is searchable in the Click Analytic database.
