Gender Equality
The median income of women who worked full-time hours all
year in Edmonton also grew by 4.4 per cent since 2014
A historical comparison of incomes earned by Alberta women over
two decades shows impressive gains were made until 1993, when
rapid deterioration began.
As of 2011, women in Alberta were paid, on average, 63 per cent of
a mans income. In Ontario, the study showed women fared better,
earning about 74 per cent of a mans wage

Alberta's carbon emissions as a liability
imposed on Canada and the world is
estimated at $13.7 billion valued at $50/t
CO2e. Of Albertas estimated $13.7
billion unfunded carbon liability, roughly
$2.25 billion per annum is attributed to
Albertas oilsands (16%) and $1.3 billion
(9.4%) is attributed to the burning of coal
for coal-fired electricity plants
