Western Canadian Place is an office tower complex in Calgary, Alberta. It consists of two buildings, the taller North Tower and the shorter South Tower.

It was designed by the architectural firm, Cohos Evamy (the same firm who designed Bankers Hall - East and Bankers Hall - West in Calgary) in late modernist style.2 The office complex was purchased in 2004 for $230,675,000 by GWL Realty Advisors, one of the firms involved in building the structure.

It is the headquarters of Husky Energy and Apache Corp.'s Canadian subsidiary, Apache Canada.
