On behalf of the Government of Alberta, it is my pleasure to send greetings to readers of Invest in Alberta/Xperience Alberta magazine.

In the face of challenges like the ones we have seen over the last two years, it would have been easy to give in to pessimism. But that’s just not the Alberta way. This is a province of resilient people and incredible potential. That’s why, in June of 2020, we launched Alberta’s Recovery Plan to begin the work of getting people back to work, building infrastructure and diversifying our economy. And Alberta is on the rise.

With a history of innovation and a maturing tech sector, access to capital, and the most competitive tax rate in Canada, our province is perfectly situated to Renew, Rise and Reposition. We are leaving behind one of the most difficult periods in our history and embracing Alberta’s bright future.

I know economic developers play a critical role in helping communities plan for sustainable prosperity, and I appreciate your contributions to growth in our province. Thank you to Economic Developers Alberta for supporting this important profession and the talented folks who help us build a better tomorrow.

Hon Jason Kenney, Premier of Alberta
