Our geography uniquely positions us to supply Asia, Europe and the world with the energy they need whether it’s oil, propane, liquified natural gas, hydrogen, ammonia and more.
"Alberta’s vast wealth of energy resources can bring billions of people globally out of energy poverty and reduce global emissions by displacing high-emitting fuels, like coal, with lower-emitting fuels like natural gas.
"No other democratic ally offers the same combination of stability, proximity and abundant energy reserves that Alberta has – and we have no plans of slowing down. We’re increasing production and reducing emissions with advanced technology and strong environmental standards, while protecting Alberta’s land, water and air for future generations to enjoy.

“Alberta is built on ambition, resilience and innovation. We’re not just open for business, we’re leading the way. It is with great pride that we welcome G7 leaders and visitors to this extraordinary place we call home.
