Sturgeon River — Parkland, ab

Sturgeon River—Parkland is home to Canadian Forces Base Edmonton, which has approximately 5,000 troops. The Edmonton Garrison is Canada's second-largest army base by number of personnel and the second-largest overall military base. The base contributes an estimated $500 million a year to the economy.

The agricultural sector is the traditional industry of the riding, producing grains and oilseeds and seasonal produce for sale at local farmers’ markets. Mixed farms also raise cattle, bison, elk, and poultry. The economy has been diversifying and the riding has become an industrial centre, with parts of the Industrial Heartland falling in Sturgeon County. The largest operation is the North West Redwater Partnership, which has an estimated economic value of $90 billion over 30 years.
