Life Insurance Alberta

Alberta is a province of Canada, with an approximated population of 4,000,000 and is Canada’s fourth-most populous province and the most populous of Canada’s three prairie provinces. Its location has to do with 660,000 square kilometers.

Alberta is surrounded by the provinces of British Columbia to the west and Saskatchewan to the east, the Northwest Territories to the north, and the U.S. state of Montana to the south. Alberta is among 3 Canadian provinces and territories to border only a single U.S. state and among only two landlocked provinces. It has a primarily humid continental environment, with plain contrasts over a year; however, seasonal temperature level average swings are smaller sized than in areas even more east, due to winters being warmed by occasional chinook winds bringing abrupt warming.

Alberta’s capital, Edmonton, is near the geographic center of the province and is the primary supply and service hub for Canada’s petroleum, the Athabasca oil sands, and other northern resource markets.

About 290 km south of the capital is Calgary, the largest city in Alberta. Calgary and Edmonton center Alberta’s two census city areas, both of which have populations exceeding one million, while the province has 16 census piles.

Tourist destinations in the province include Banff, Canmore, Drumheller, Jasper, Sylvan Lake, and Lake Louise. Alberta is home to six UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks, Dinosaur Provincial Park, the Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, Waterton– Glacier International Peace Park, Wood Buffalo National Park, and Writing-on-Stone.
