Tourism Marketing & Development Receive $71 million
The Government of Alberta's 2009 budget also allocated $14 million to tourism development, to generate economic activity and support expansion of tourism attractions and destinations in Alberta. Funding for tourism marketing and development is based on revenue collected through the Tourism Levy.
Travel Alberta has released a three-year business plan to guide its activities to stimulate increased tourism expenditures in the province and to become Canada’s pre-eminent tourism marketing agency. Goals include encouraging more Albertans to holiday and vacation longer in the province, and working to increase expenditures, visitation and length-of-stay with travellers from key domestic and international markets by building awareness and consumer preference. Travel Alberta’s 2009-2012 Business Plan is available online at www.industry.travelalberta.com/businessplan.
