Surely had some peculiar looks.

Happy Birthday Jan!
You are probably on a first name basis with all the YYC crew.

I have received calls from YVR, YEG, YYC and YYZ but never from foreign concierges.
The most proactive though are YYC and YEG, they always call when there is a significant delay or cancellation.
YYZ, I have only received a call once when I was in the air and going to miss my connection - got a voice mail that they printed my new BP and directions where to pick it up.
YVR, only once when a flight was late. I got a call after I got to the airport already.

I think the smaller the airport the more likely they will look out for you. At YYZ there is probably hundreds of SE flying through everyday, it would be difficult to call all of them whenever there is a delay although they do have 46 concierges at YYZ.
