In this episode of The Lawyo Podcast, we break down Alberta’s Economic Trends – February 2025, a report based on Budget 2025’s Economic Outlook. We analyze the province’s economic forecast, from strong employment numbers and record oil production in 2024 to the anticipated slowdown in 2025 due to potential Canada-U.S. trade conflicts.

We discuss how Alberta’s energy sector is expected to remain resilient, while manufacturing and agriculture may face more challenges. Housing is projected to stay strong, but slower job creation could lead to rising unemployment. The episode also explores different economic scenarios, considering how global tariffs—or the absence of them—could impact Alberta’s growth, oil prices, trade, and consumer spending.

If you want to understand where Alberta’s economy is headed and how it could impact businesses, workers, and investors, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in now!
