Premier of Alberta, Rachel Notley, is part of this year's Wealth Professional's Women of Influence.
Rachel Notley
Premier of Alberta
After becoming the leader of the first New Democratic party to sweep into power in Alberta, Rachel Notley has been on the hot seat. With the province’s economy hitting the skids as the price of oil plummeted, Alberta shed more jobs last year than any time since the early 1980s and is enduring its highest unemployment rate in 20 years. While also trying to build pipelines in the province, Notley has developed a plan to address climate change that’s progressive for a resource jurisdiction. The success she’s looking to bring to Alberta’s economy will go a long way in helping the Canadian economy bounce back from the slump it’s in.
