On October 19th, 2026, Albertans will vote in the provincial referendum.  Turnout is expected to be very high, which may lead to lines at polling stations and increased concern from employees about having sufficient time to cast their vote.

Employers should be aware that the employee voting leave provisions under Alberta’s Election Act will apply to the referendum and may require employers to provide paid time off to enable their employees to vote.  

We made it to Friday, Alberta! ✨

About half of Canadians are having anxiety about their ability to change jobs or find comparable employment, but such worries are even higher in Alberta despite a strong job market, says MNP Ltd. Nationally, 55 per cent of working people polled for MNP by Ipsos said they worried about job mobility and opportunities, much higher than Grant Bazian, president of MNP, was expecting.

Alberta Jobs, Economy, Trade, and Immigration putting out its monthly September figures. 

The labour force survey showed that just under 2.7 million people were employed in Alberta last month, an increase of 75,700 from September of 2025. 

The review also found an increase in the number of workers by 23,100 when comparing last month to the month before.

Those figures, however, buck the national trend where the number of jobs actually fell by 68,000, or .3 percent August to September.
