Alberta (Canadian Republic)

Alberta (/ælˈbɜːrtə/) is one of Canada's twelve provinces. It borders British Columbia to the west, Arctica to the north, Saskatchewan to the east, and the US state of Montana to the south. Its economy is based largely on oil, tourism, and technology, with Calgary, its largest city, the site of most of the last.

Politics
Alberta is generally further right than the rest of the country, with the exception of the Calgary metro area. Calgary, due largely to an influx of youth seeking employment in the tech industry, is often a stronghold for the Liberal and Social Party of Alberta in provincial elections, and alternating between the Social Democratic Workers' Party and Liberal Party in federal elections.
