That Wild Rose Charm

ATB Economics recently wrote an article that discussed new inter provincial migration. The article starts by saying that the population of Alberta grew faster than any other province in the first quarter of 2009, partly due to the 7,144 interprovincial migrants. Over half of these people arrived from Ontario.

Also notable was that for the first time since 2006, more people moved to Alberta from Saskatcheqwan and BC than moved there from Alberta.

This inmigration drives demand for housing, helping to explain a resurgence in our industry.

Alberta really is a great place to live and to work and to raise a family, and it seems the rest of Canada hasn't forgotten.
