Strengthening Energy Ties: Alberta's Role in North America

In the world of energy, partnerships matter. This week, MLA Getson is in Anchorage, Alaska, meeting with legislators from 14 energy-producing states, including Alberta and Saskatchewan. These discussions are vital for keeping energy issues on everyone's radar!

One thing is clear: Alberta isn't just a significant player; it’s a powerhouse! With approximately 84% of Canada's crude oil production originating here, and a whopping 58% of the U.S. crude oil imports coming from Alberta, it’s important to promote the work we do. MLA Getson will emphasize how crucial Alberta is for energy security in North America.

“I’m honored to represent Alberta and share our story with our American friends,” said MLA Getson. He knows that the energy families and businesses in Alberta provide is essential for everyone. These meetings give us a chance to build connections and reinforce Alberta as a reliable energy partner.

Mark your calendars! MLA Getson's trip to Anchorage runs from September 16 to 21, 2024, with an agenda packed full of energy discussions. It's all about making the flow of energy between Alberta and the U.S. even stronger!
