The Alberta government is showcasing the economic boost authentic Indigenous tourism brings to the province.

The province said Friday that more visitors are coming to Alberta than ever before, and one in three international travellers is seeking authentic Indigenous experiences when they arrive.

“Indigenous cultures and history are central to Alberta’s story, and these investments in Indigenous tourism will help communities continue sharing their vibrant cultures with the world through authentic Indigenous experiences,” Minister of Tourism and Sport Joseph Schow said in a news release. “As Indigenous tourism expands across the province, it will continue to create meaningful employment and ownership opportunities for Indigenous Peoples and generate revenue streams for Indigenous communities provincewide.”The province held a news conference at Métis Crossing in Smoky Lake on Friday morning to showcase the contributions of Indigenous tourism to Alberta.
