Alberta-
United States Relations
Relations with the United States are of vital importance to the province for several reasons.
Alberta has close historic ties with the U.S. since many early pioneers immigrated to the province from the U.S. Midwest.
The U.S. is by far the largest destination for international exports from Alberta. Over 90% of all provincial exports abroad are shipped to points in the U.S. Seventeen of Alberta's top twenty international export destinations are U.S. states. Additionally, the U.S. is the source of two-thirds of all foreign investment in the province. Sixty per cent of tourists visiting the province from other countries are from the U.S.
Alberta participates in a number of organizations whose membership includes U.S. states. These include the Pacific NorthWest Economic Region (PNWER), the CanAm Border Trade Alliance, and bilateral councils with the states of Montana, Idaho, and Alaska.
