Government of Alberta e-newsletter
March 2009

Introducing...

 

Alberta has a great story to tell, and we're going to tell it. The perception of Alberta has a profound impact on the success of our province.

As we tell the world about Alberta, we have the opportunity to influence exports to world markets, sway investments, and draw tourists and immigrants.

Attracting investment to Alberta

Premier Ed Stelmach

A message from Premier Ed Stelmach

There is no better time than now to promote our province - to reach out to new markets abroad and create new prosperity here at home. In the midst of the current worldwide economic slowdown, Alberta is the best place to invest.

The province has a solid financial footing, low taxes, and a connection to the world’s most secure banking system. We have an educated, skilled, and talented workforce; access to major markets; abundant natural resources; effective infrastructure; and innovative technology.

The Alberta government has an economic plan - we will watch our spending; draw on our emergency savings to protect the programs and services that Albertans rely on; continue to invest in our people and our infrastructure; and, promote Alberta in the global marketplace to preserve our export markets and our future prosperity.

You'll see Alberta at important national and international events in the coming months. I'll be in Geneva talking to investors. There will be extensive information about Alberta at the Oilfield Technology Show in Houston in early May. Alberta will have a significant presence at the Vancouver 2010 Olympics and Paralympics.

Alberta is about Albertans

Our province and its people have many dimensions, and we have much to be proud of. We are inventive, resilient, creative, hard working, and down to earth. We care about our land, air, water, wildlife, and about our neighbours.

All businesses and organizations are encouraged to get involved in promoting Alberta. Together we can show that Alberta is a place like no other.

Get inspired by fellow Albertans' stories, and then contribute your own to help spread the word.

About the new look

If you’re a regular reader of Your Alberta, you may notice the e-newsletter has a new look. This is just one part of a project to help us tell Alberta’s story.

Look for these visuals to be used around the province in the coming months, not just by the Government of Alberta, but by businesses and other organizations.
