Airports are economic generators and serve to connect communities. As the Province’s Capital, Edmonton is home to major tertiary hospitals, the legislature, government offices, industrial suppliers and businesses. The Edmonton City Centre Airport (ECCA) is best suited to service all of these needs.In 2010, a group of individuals came together to keep the ECCA available for all Albertans. The ECCA serves communities and industry across the province and its closure will affect Health Care for rural Albertans as well as drive up transportation costs to industries in Northern Alberta.Although named Envision Edmonton, the organization is working for all Albertans. Access to the Province’s Capital City is not only the responsibility of the City of Edmonton, but the Province of Alberta as well. Envision Edmonton works towards that goal.
About Envision EdmontonEnsuring that the Edmonton City Centre Airport is maintained as a vital Medevac and Air Transportation link for all Albertans.
