Chart of the Week: The Big 4 - Evolution of Canada’s four largest economies
Alberta has the third largest economy in Canada despite ranking fourth in population. There was one year in 2014 when Alberta came incredibly close to reaching 2nd place—the effects of exceptionally high energy prices and a booming economy. In that year, Alberta’s nominal GDP was $376.8 billion—just shy of Quebec’s 376.9 billion. Alberta temporarily slipped to fourth in 2020 when energy prices tanked during COVID.
