The Alberta government is planning to recruit more skilled workers from Ontario and the Maritimes, with a second “Alberta Is Calling” campaign launched on March 13.
In a news release, the government said labour shortages in the province are affecting skilled trades, health care, food service and hospitality, accounting, engineering, and technology.
