Public meeting on 50 years of Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund

Oct 22, 2026 | 6:57 AM

The Government of Alberta is hosting a public meeting this Monday, Oct. 26 to hear from people about how they believe the future of the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund should be shaped.

The province notes that 2026 marks 50 years of the fund.

“We encourage all Albertans to take part in the public meeting,” said Tany Yao, MLA for Fort McMurray-Wood Buffalo and Chair of the Committee.

“Whether online or in person, every voice matters and we look forward to hearing from everyone who has an interest in the Fund.”

The meeting will be held on the 2nd floor of the Queen Elizabeth II Building at 9820 – 107 Street, Edmonton. Members of the public are invited to attend in person or watch live on Alberta Assembly TV, at assembly.ab.ca and on the Legislative Assembly’s social media channels.

The fund was created in 1976 by then-premier Peter Lougheed, with money from Alberta’s non-renewable resources.

Live Question-and-answer Session

Following an update on the Fund’s performance by experts from Alberta Treasury Board and Finance and the Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo), a question-and-answer session will allow participants to pose questions to officials and the committee in person, on Facebook and X using #abheritagefund, by e-mail at Committee.Admin@assembly.ab.ca and through the designated telephone line 1.800.717.1738 code 34098, which will only be active during the meeting.

Albertans who can’t attend the meeting are encouraged to submit comments/questions in advance of the meeting at assembly.ab.ca/assembly-business/committees/HS. The committee will respond to the questions during the live event.
