Overview

The Job Creation Tax Cut (Alberta Corporate Tax Amendment) Act (formerly Bill 3) reduced the tax burden on job creators.

The corporate tax rate was lowered from 12% to 8% as part of Alberta's Recovery Plan.

Alberta is now the most tax-competitive business jurisdiction and among the most attractive investment destinations in North America.
