How do Edmonton business costs compare?

Businesses in Alberta benefit from one of North America’s most competitive corporate tax environments - there is no provincial, capital, or payroll tax. With these advantages and more, the Edmonton Economic Developmemt Corporation continues to project that Greater Edmonton has one of the brightest economic futures of any region of a comparable size in the world. Edmonton is redefining what it means to be a world-class mid-size city.
