Alberta (/ælˈbɜːrtə/) is a western province of Canada. With an estimated population of 4,196,457 as of July 1, 2015, it is Canada's fourth-most populous province and the most populous of Canada's three prairie provinces. Alberta and its neighbour Saskatchewan were districts of the Northwest Territories until they were established as provinces on September 1, 1905. The premier has been Rachel Notley since May 2015.
Alberta is bounded by the provinces of British Columbia to the west and Saskatchewan to the east, the Northwest Territories to the north, and the US state of Montana to the south. Alberta is one of three Canadian provinces and territories to border only a single US state and one of only two landlocked provinces. It has a predominantly Humid continental climate, but seasonal temperature average swings are smaller than to areas further east, with winters being warmed by occasional chinook winds bringing sudden warming which moderates average temperatures.
Alberta's capital Edmonton is near the geographic centre of the province and is the primary supply and service hub for Canada's crude oil, oil sands (Athabasca oil sands) and other northern resource industries.

Canada is the fifth-largest producer of oil in the world. But when the price of oil plummeted in late 2014, the country’s oil-rich western province of Alberta began hurtling toward a recession, with widespread layoffs and historic reductions in drilling activity. The impact was felt across Canada, too. Crude oil is the country’s number one export, and 99 percent of it is sold to the United States. But in recent years, the US has emerged as a major oil producer in its own right, following a revolution in controversial fracking technology that has increased US oil production and contributed to a global oversupply of oil. Now, Canada's energy sector faces the difficult question of how to meet new markets in a changing global energy landscape. VICE News visited Alberta, known as Canada’s “T...
Roughly three hours from Calgary and Edmonton and in the foothills above Rocky Mountain House and Caroline, Pepper's Lake is a pretty spot to trout fish Alberta on the edge of the Canadian Rockies. We came to pitch Pautzke salmon eggs in the evening and caught piles of pan size brook trout. Floating salmon eggs enabled us to drift above the weed line in search of feeding trout. We soaked Orange Deluxe and Yellow Jacket salmon eggs (three per hook) exclusively and caught an endless number of fish while filming Pautzke Outdoors. Catching trout normally isn’t a chore. The Alberta Fish & Wildlife keeps the lake well stocked. If you’re going to fish from the bank, the area adjacent to the campground provides the easiest and best access to the fish. Anywhere you can walk down to the bank affo...

On May 14, 1914, wet natural gas sprayed out of the well bore at the Calgary Petroleum Products No. 1 Well. This discovery of petroleum led to the development of Alberta's first natural gas processing plant and changed the province forever. Located 60 km south of Calgary, the Turner Valley Gas Plant is a tangible symbol of the development of the Turner Valley Oilfield, western Canada’s first commercial petroleum producer. Turner Valley Gas Plant is a provincial facility operated by Alberta Culture and Tourism, Historic Sites and Museums Branch.

On Thursday, August 18, 2016, Hockey Alberta unveiled its new visual identity. Alberta is represented through the use of the official gold and blue colours of the province; a stylized letter ‘A’ that also forms the profile of a net; and the inclusion of the Alberta wordmark at the base of the logo. In addition to the profile of the net, hockey is represented by the silhouette of a player. The player reflects Hockey Alberta’s new Mission statement (adopted in 2015) which focuses on ensuring that all players have the opportunity to participate and enjoy the sport, as well as Hockey Alberta’s status as a member of Hockey Canada.

(Es nuestra isla para dos)
Voy a tejer un mundo a la medida
Donde tú y yo seremos soberanos
Una pequeña encantadora isla
De eternas primaveras y veranos
Bajo el ardiente sol de las pasiones
Crecerá nuestro amor fuerte y risueño
Y sin otras tareas y ocupaciones
Velaremos por él con fe y empeño
La tierra del fuego será mimada por las aguas del romance
Y con el color de nuestros sueños pintaré el cielo azul
Brillante y cantaremos
Es nuestra isla para dos (ay gozaremos)
Es nuestra isla para dos (cantaremos)
Es nuestra isla para dos (ay gozaremos)
Es nuestra isla para dos
No existirán complejos ni malicias
Será un paraíso verdadero
Yo vestiré tu cuerpo con caricias
Y adornaré con orquídeas tu pelo
Bajo el ardiente sol de las pasiones
Crecerá nuestro amor fuerte y risueño
Y sin otras tareas y ocupaciones
Velaremos por él con fe y empeño
La tierra del fuego será mimada por las aguas del romance
Y con el color de nuestros sueños pintaré el cielo azul
Brillante y cantaremos
