Chart of the Week: Alberta’s GDP growth trajectory - Past decade and next two years
Despite all the hurdles out there, Alberta is projected to keep growing at a decent pace over the next two years according to our December outlook. That doesn’t address all issues (for example, cost of living is still a big concern for many), but it is a better path ahead than we expected earlier this year. And after a tough decade (2015-16 recession, 2018-19 market access challenges, 2020 COVID), the economy is finding its footing and now outpacing the rest of the country in growth.
