[edit]In truth, I'm not fully convinced that the new article makes a much stronger notability case than the old one did; fundamentally, it's still an article about a real estate agent whose notability is almost exclusively local, rather than national or international, in nature. If he made regular appearances on Buy Me, it would probably be easier to convince me that he cleared the bar, but being in one episode doesn't really do that. None of which is to say that it's impossible for topics of primarily local notability to merit inclusion in Wikipedia — it's just that there's a much higher burden of proof if his notability outside of Calgary isn't immediately obvious. So I'm still just not really seeing why he's notable enough to be included in an international encyclopedia — are there other things you can say about him that would make a stronger case for that?
