Edmonton, like the rest of Alberta, is experiencing an economic boom
due to high energy prices. Oil and other natural resources are
Alberta’s primary industries, and Edmonton companies are benefiting by
supplying these projects with workers, supplies, and services. This
also increases jobs in the construction and retail industries to build
homes and supply furnishings for workers moving to Edmonton to fill
those jobs.

On top of that, further growth in non-resource based industries,
such as software development, technology, and biomedical research,
continues to diversify our economy.

The benefit of all of this is a low unemployment rate (at less than
5%, it is among the lowest in Canada) and a tremendous opportunity for
workers to find jobs and to receive training for new jobs, and a
healthy environment to start and grow a business.
