Migration to Alberta from other provinces jumped in the second quarter, Statistics Canada said Wednesday.

From April 1 to July 1, a net total of 2,820 Canadians moved to Alberta.

Only 312 Canadians moved to Alberta in the first three months of the year and Alberta posted net losses in the two quarters before that. ) l4 d- ^7 c4 l8 ]& R# n" s

“Alberta just experienced its most solid quarter of interprovincial migration in a year,” Sumner said.

But he said a still-recovering job market in Alberta means a quick return to the pace of migration seen during the boom is unlikely.
