Migration to Alberta from other provinces jumped in the second quarter, Statistics Canada said Wednesday. 1 l! q/ V' X2 i$ k8 Z

From April 1 to July 1, a net total of 2,820 Canadians moved to Alberta.

Only 312 Canadians moved to Alberta in the first three months of the year and Alberta posted net losses in the two quarters before that. ) D* }& o' u% R7 e3 v3 a

It was the first time Alberta had lost more people than it gained since 1994-95.

“Alberta just experienced its most solid quarter of interprovincial migration in a year,” Sumner said. 2 N6 f$ N3 ?6 u; m2 R6 c5 G3 i9 O
“The main factor driving Canadians to move between provinces is jobs and job prospects. * ^+ N0 Z1 P# `; P8 x8 W8 E

$ U- N' A. a! o0 M4 C“During the mid-decade, unsustainably strong job prospects drove migrants to Alberta from all corners of the country, although this trend reversed course quickly during the recession.” . t  b; ^' o" D& ~) L8 V0 l2 X% l

But he said a still-recovering job market in Alberta means a quick return to the pace of migration seen during the boom is unlikely. " t/ z- U( J! G' V! R) q2 t7 ?

That was the highest increase rate among provinces and includes arrivals from other provinces and countries, as well as births. & ]3 _7 B0 B& }+ I3 j

“Almost half the growth in Alberta came from natural increase, the highest proportion among the provinces,” said the federal agency. , i4 U! Y6 L% R/ ~4 C; D' Z7 g6 ]
( n; T* y+ F2 w# _2 t
Sumner said the province’s strong natural increase was partly due to its population having the lowest median age at 35.8, compared to the national average of 39.7. 6 E! R# R! @- Y& r4 M

no. between 2009 and this year, a loss of 2,200, which means before the second quarter of this year, from 2009 to march this year, a net loss of 5020 (2,200 plus 2,820) to other provinces.
