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.

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.: T1 E. P% x1 o5 ]$ b# J# c5 z7 a

anyway, a very nice reversal, gaining half of the loss of about 2 years in one quarter.
