As a former Alberta community representative on the Steering Committee for Citizenship and Immigration Canada, I can tell you that Alberta has not reached the stage of recruiting from abroad, something that has become a primary objective. Demographic migration occurs interprovincially. Unlike Manitoba or the Maritime provinces, we have not reached the stage of recruiting from abroad.
The Centre d'accueil et d'établissement d'Edmonton at Saint-Jean Campus made two or three trips to Africa and Eastern Europe, but these were not very successful. For now, people are arriving in Alberta of their own initiative.
