Personally I wish someone would do what Air Canada used to do, and fly out of Calgary at about 10 pm. That way you have time to make an after-work flight on a weekday (e.g. Friday) and be in London or Paris or Dublin by early afternoon Saturday, and be over the jet lag by Sunday.

A quick search for the inaugural flight schedules for each of the three new Dreamliner routes shows evening departures from YYC and therefore mid morning arrivals in Europe. Arrivals back into YYC are in the mid afternoon. So connections to/from Saskatchewan will be convenient!
