The Fraser Institute’s 2025 Tax Index shows the average Canadian family paid 42.3% of their income in taxes – more than on food, housing, and clothing combined.

Alberta Enterprise Group advocates for efficient, low-cost government that supports, not stifles, opportunity.

At AEG, we believe change only comes when we act differently.

As Alberta charts its economic future, a critical question emerges: What size should government be to maximize prosperity? With spending approaching 30% of GDP, Alberta still outperforms other provinces, but risks slowing growth if this trend continues. Research shows that excessive government size can stifle innovation and reduce living standards. A balanced approach can keep Alberta competitive and thriving.
Alberta stands at a critical turning point – our healthcare system is strained, and our population is aging fast. But what if the solution isn’t just economic, but biological?
