THE RED HOT PROVINCE IS NOW IN SUSTAINABLE CRUISING speed, WITH A solid LONG-TERM OUTLOOK.

With oil sands development in high gear, Alberta has been Canada's economic darling for the last decade. Some wonder how long can it go? Is it still a great place to invest? Absolutely.

As well, Albertans have done a stellar job in the last decade of ensuring that their future depends on a lot more than the oil. After many years of strong economic growth the government books are in great shape, and with the lowest taxes in the country people will always want to move here.
