Alberta is in the calm before the storm. Sure, we’re sitting pretty now – over the past 12 months employment in province has been up by 2.8 per cent or 58,400 jobs, which is the highest employment growth rate in the country. But those rosy numbers say nothing of the major bottleneck that’s only a few years out.

The Calgary Chamber took a good hard look at itself last year to see if we could better serve the needs of the city’s business community. Since then, we’ve began the process of revitalizing our organization by refocusing on what matters most – the needs of our members.

All members will have received an e-mail in the last day with a link to our membership survey. Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts with us to let us know how we are doing, what we can change and how we can help you overcome your toughest business challenges.

A lucky member from the first 250 respondents will win 4 spots in our Play with the Presidents golf tournament in July.
