I recognize this area even though it is in night!!! That is in business district of Calgary exactly below the plane and Eau Claire neighborhood above the left engine where you can see Prince's Island Park in middle of Bow River running across the screenshot. On bottom of screenshot is Elbow River. You can see five bridges starting from left to right called 5 Ave SE bridge, Langevin Bridge, Centre St bridge, and 10 Street NW bridge.

Nice paintjob!! Had to surf the net to find out about that company.  They usually fly smaller aircraft than a T7 though. Fictional repaint?

 

Lovely screenshots of the snowstorm on approach!! (see Aharon's link.)
