Even through job losses and slumping oil prices, people from other provinces are still moving to Alberta. Statistics Canada’s Quarterly Population Report shows that Alberta has the strongest growth rate out of all the provinces. Alberta has held that top spot since the first quarter of 2011. In the past three months, our 15 365 people have moved to our province, giving us a population of 4 175 409. Most newcomers to Alberta were from Ontario, followed by Quebec, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
