Gain of 2,820 from other provinces follows losses

Migration to Alberta from other provinces jumped in the second quarter, Statistics Canada said Wednesday. " m& t5 |- g1 [8 ]+ U' e5 _* h' R

From April 1 to July 1, a net total of 2,820 Canadians moved to Alberta. % p! K- h. a! G& |

That means people from other provinces are being drawn by Alberta’s economy after months of dwindling or negative interprovin-cial migration to Alberta.

3 H/ @4 K* W3 M: E' Q2 sOnly 312 Canadians moved to Alberta in the first three months of the year and Alberta posted net losses in the two quarters before that.

Between 2009 and this year, Alberta lost 2,200 people to other provinces. * c' y0 |. D9 k

It was the first time Alberta had lost more people than it gained since 1994-95. . _: \7 N( l6 I0 ]5 W) o  A; }2 f- I

It followed a peak during 200506 when 45,800 interprovincial migrants arrived.

! l( q! _; ?. o' S9 R) gATB Financial economist Dan Sumner said interprovincial migration is one of the best measures of the relative economic and social health of a region.
& `  z2 V; d6 C7 ~" T) X4 u8 L, M- y. j9 e- f
“Alberta just experienced its most solid quarter of interprovincial migration in a year,” Sumner said. 1 c# u$ X9 ~9 u- w- d+ R' D
“The main factor driving Canadians to move between provinces is jobs and job prospects.

“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.” 2 S/ K) o. D3 k+ ^+ L$ j6 ]
# y$ D  F3 A' j/ D+ L
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. 8 k5 h7 c; _/ j

* ?* h% Y: A8 j" y6 e# qStatistics Canada said Alberta’s population in the second quarter climbed by 18,538, or 0.5 per cent, to 3.72 million. % H& ]! J$ f& C2 t+ Z2 g

Sumner said the province’s strong natural increase was partly due to its population having the lowest median age at 35.8, compared to the national average of 39.7. 0 R4 ?' F/ ]2 h$ w7 W& m' Q  v+ `

As of July 1, Canada’s population was estimated at 34.1 million, up 120,800 or 0.36 per cent from April 1.

no. between 2009 and this year, a loss of 2,200, which means before the second quarter of this year, from 2009 to march this year, a net loss of 5020 (2,200 plus 2,820) to other provinces.
