May hope and happiness fill your home this Easter!
Alberta is becoming a global leader in the aviation industry, attracting top companies like Lufthansa Technik Canada to invest in our future. Lufthansa Technik Canada has announced their $120 million investment in a cutting-edge maintenance facility at Calgary International Airport which will create hundreds of jobs, boost Alberta’s aerospace sector, and further establish Alberta as a global aviation hub. This investment is the catalyst for a $3 billion, 15-year service contract with WestJet, which is helping Alberta’s aerospace and aviation sector soar to new heights. As well, Alberta’s government is committing $7.45 million dollars to the project through the Investment and Growth Fund (IGF) and the Aerospace Workforce Development Grant.
Albertans in Calgary and southwest Alberta will have greater access to critical care as Rockyview General Hospital expands its ICU, cardiac, and endoscopy capacity. Alberta’s government is committed to ensuring Albertans can access the health care services they need, when and where they need them. The completion of this $84-million project is a significant investment in health care infrastructure in Calgary, increasing critical care capacity, and improving access to life-saving treatment.
Alberta hosted three major international sport events and two national championships from February to March, driving athletes and fans to the province. Alberta is continuing to build upon the province’s strong reputation as a premier destination for world-class sporting events and sports fans. From FIS Snowboard Sopestyle and Halfpipe World Cup at Winsport, to the Western Transmountain Festival and the World Youth Open dodgeball tournament, as well as the 2025 Nordiq Canada Ski Nationals returning to the Canmore Nordic Centre. Alberta’s government has committed more than $440,000 through the Major Sport Event grant program to support the success of these five events.
Happy Easter!
