Alberta Act
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Alberta Act, 1905)
The Alberta Act, effective September 1, 1905, was the act of the Parliament of Canada that created the province of Alberta. The act is similar in nature to The Saskatchewan Act, which established the province of Saskatchewan at the same time. Like the Saskatchewan Act, the Alberta Act was controversial because (sec 21) it allowed the Government of Canada to maintain control of all of Alberta's natural resources and public lands. Alberta did win control of these resources in 1930.
The Alberta Act is part of the Constitution of Canada.
