The agreement will span five years and includes no financial engagement, but rather a sharing of knowledge between both administrations.

Duranceau says the initiative will build on each province’s expertise to create a more effective state.

Glubish highlighted Alberta’s AI initiatives and presented them as a way to increase speed and reduce costs.

Alberta has leaned into AI and is the centre of Canada’s emerging data centre landscape, according to recent research out of York University.
