The Brief: 2022 Year in Review

AlbertaBETTER

2022 brought us what can only be described as world-changing moments: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the death of Britain’s longest-serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth the Second, overturning of Roe v Wade, protests in Iran.

2022 was also a big year for Alberta: we are experiencing the most dramatic fiscal turnaround in our history.

Premier Danielle Smith was elected leader of the UCP and became the 19th Premier of Alberta.

Albertans were really challenged with the rise in inflation. And much more.

In this episode, BCA’s President Adam Legge reminisces and recaps the major stories of 2022, how Alberta’s economy has fared, the big challenges Albertans faced, and the major policy wins.

We also provide a sneak peek into what we’re cooking up for 2023 and what is keeping us up at night as we turn the page on 2022.
