“Today, we recognize and celebrate Canadian Multiculturalism Day and the many cultures, languages and traditions that have shaped our province and our country.
“Alberta is home to people from around the world whose skills, work ethic and perspectives grow our economy and strengthen our local communities. These efforts play a key role in making Alberta the best place to live, work and raise a family.
“A strong Alberta depends on everyone, regardless of background, having the chance to contribute to the communities they call home. Our government will continue to champion multiculturalism to support that work and drive continued growth across our province.
“On Canadian Multiculturalism Day, I encourage every Albertan to celebrate the many cultures that surround us and take pride in the communities we are building together.”
