Alberta Government Leaders

Noé, Kiona and Aarav are visiting Alberta’s Legislative Assembly. Help them discover who does what in Alberta’s provincial government. Read the leader cards, then solve the activities. Remember: Alberta is a province in Canada.

Meet Alberta’s Government Leaders

Premier: leads Alberta’s government and chooses cabinet ministers to help make decisions. The Premier is usually the leader of the political party with the most elected MLAs. MLA: means Member of the Legislative Assembly. People in an electoral area vote for an MLA to represent them. MLAs discuss and vote on provincial laws and issues. Cabinet minister: an MLA chosen by the Premier to lead a provincial area, such as health or education. Lieutenant Governor: represents the Crown in Alberta. This appointed role includes giving royal assent to provincial bills so they become laws. The Lieutenant Governor does not lead the government.
