This afternoon's Calgary Stampede has taken on a distinct flavor, with a strong emphasis on economic development and investment attraction for the city. The event has drawn a high level of attention from prominent figures, including Premier Smith, who attended the Calgary Chamber of Commerce event earlier today. This gathering of business leaders and stakeholders provided a platform for Premier Smith to engage in meaningful discussions about the city's economic future and the role that Alberta can play in driving growth and progress.
Following her appearance at the Chamber of Commerce event, Premier Smith proceeded to the Business Council of Alberta & Calgary Economic Development Stampede Reception, where she continued to promote the province's vision for economic development and investment attraction. This prestigious event brought together a diverse group of business leaders, investors, and policymakers, all united in their commitment to fostering a thriving economy in Alberta.
Premier Smith's busy schedule also included a visit to the US-Canada Cross Border Round Up, where she seized the opportunity to advocate for Alberta's role in achieving North American energy dominance. Her discussions with US officials focused on highlighting the province's unique advantages and capabilities in the energy sector, and exploring ways to strengthen bilateral cooperation and collaboration. Through these efforts, Premier Smith is working to position Alberta as a leader in the global energy market, and to create new opportunities for economic growth and development in the region.
