Since the distance between New Mexico and Alberta is not very far, and ceramic tiles are not very sensitive items to transportation, truck would be the best choice. It is a cost-effective option and can deliver the tiles directly to the construction site. Air transportation might be too expensive for such heavy and bulky items, railroad transportation would require extra handling and potentially transfer, and water transportation would be too slow and not feasible for delivery to a landlocked city like Calgary.
