ABOUT THE ST. PAUL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The Chamber of Commerce in St. Paul-now known as the St. Paul and District Chamber of Commerce-was incorporated under the Federal Board of Trade Act in 1929, and the Alberta Societies Act in 1994, beginning a rich history of involvement in the community. We have served in many capacities-from the 1967 Centennial UFO Landing Pad Project to regular attendance and input at the Alberta Chamber of Commerce AGM and Conference.

Our Misson

We will be the champion of the business community through support to businesses, support to economic development, and advocating supportive business policies.

Our Chamber of Commerce is a local member-based not for profit organization, governed by the Board of Trade Act at the Federal level and the Societies Act at the Provincial level. The association is comprised of business, professionals, residents and other community groups working together to ensure a healthy economic and socio-economic base to benefit the entire community. The Chamber exists to:

Advance existing business and support economic development initiatives;
Constructively influence public policy and governments in support of a healthy business climate; and to
Provide valuable support, tools and programs for our members.
