Gain of 2,820 from other provinces follows losses4 F: ^: T. [6 Y; z* W
From Today's Edmonton Journal

Migration to Alberta from other provinces jumped in the second quarter, Statistics Canada said Wednesday. 3 m5 A! `; H. x& q( y

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

, n, P: }: e/ S0 y: c  eThat means people from other provinces are being drawn by Alberta’s economy after months of dwindling or negative interprovin-cial migration to Alberta.
. b3 P0 j" ]& r5 k/ E! R8 C
0 }$ M# i- _* C" DOnly 312 Canadians moved to Alberta in the first three months of the year and Alberta posted net losses in the two quarters before that. , J; ?7 ^2 k0 L7 R" \: v( |6 O+ J2 p. X

- y3 A3 N; ~  v" ~It was the first time Alberta had lost more people than it gained since 1994-95.
8 L) M5 _/ K, J, r0 c& i! q. L$ u; H7 Y# a) J5 q
It followed a peak during 200506 when 45,800 interprovincial migrants arrived.

5 X  v: a) T4 t7 ^' F  o1 N7 fATB Financial economist Dan Sumner said interprovincial migration is one of the best measures of the relative economic and social health of a region.
6 e/ H! [9 K( [: M+ l6 V' @: A3 Y4 L$ E7 A, m0 |9 O' d" x# a
“Alberta just experienced its most solid quarter of interprovincial migration in a year,” Sumner said. 9 K1 ?0 _/ n  f$ k* y- U
“The main factor driving Canadians to move between provinces is jobs and job prospects. ; {! g: C' i1 B" n5 V6 @" g) w$ H/ Y  C8 v
( D4 U$ g$ r+ h2 @* q/ W
“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.”
, i  Y* x& o. v; H7 ]! L1 l. D$ e  c% n6 c3 I
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.   e# l- t# ]% E8 B

Statistics Canada said Alberta’s population in the second quarter climbed by 18,538, or 0.5 per cent, to 3.72 million. ; y8 x2 v2 g! W/ ?( Z" o5 Y$ l

) I# t+ L& W$ N( rThat was the highest increase rate among provinces and includes arrivals from other provinces and countries, as well as births. - ~. f4 r4 e) U5 g) r
9 u! L. Q: r2 J6 i/ c3 r8 m
“Almost half the growth in Alberta came from natural increase, the highest proportion among the provinces,” said the federal agency. " ]& ]: ]+ j6 z) g, B
2 y' E3 J; @8 A* n4 K) E
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. , N# R7 o1 z3 b/ P/ i

' n5 @: v' a. k7 D' t! M& K' }' Gno. 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.( p" z7 I) w5 ?

anyway, a very nice reversal, gaining half of the loss of about 2 years in one quarter.
