From April 1 to July 1, a net total of 2,820 Canadians moved to Alberta. : \( J1 h- o& Z/ g6 u8 i/ A

“Alberta just experienced its most solid quarter of interprovincial migration in a year,” Sumner said. ! T! J! S$ c) |" N5 B& x
“The main factor driving Canadians to move between provinces is jobs and job prospects.
1 S* b5 H' [8 `9 c, d: I: P5 q: ^. C; j+ {1 T; F$ C1 r! V9 g2 B
“During the mid-decade, unsustainably strong job prospects drove migrants to Alberta from all corners of the country, although this trend reversed course quickly during the recession.” ' X- W: A* H  s  D  F! c  O
