As the Alberta election campaign heads into its final days, business groups are warning that increased divisiveness and political extremism poses a threat to the province’s economic future.

Unemployment is at a seven-year low, and the province’s dominant oil and gas sector is benefiting from commodity prices that — though down from last year’s record heights — remain at profitable levels.

Yedlin said Alberta companies have the potential to be global leaders in new forms of energy such as hydrogen, as well as in emissions-reducing technologies such as carbon capture and storage. But she said there is no time to waste.“We need deliberate, visible provincial support as well as deliberate, visible federal support in order for this to happen.

“Unfortunately this election has really been focused a lot on personality and not enough on the policy side of things,” said Shauna Feth, president and CEO of the Alberta Chambers of Commerce.
