  • The Siren Song of Economic Diversification: Alberta's
    Volume 8 • Issue 13 • March 2015 THE SIREN SONG OF ECONOMIC DIVERSIFICATION: ALBERTA’S LEGACY OF LOSS Ted Morton and Meredith McDonald SUMMARY Former Alberta premier Peter Lougheed is celebrated for his defence of the province and Western Canada during the energy wars of the 1970s, and deservedly so. Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau was a formidable opponent. He was able and willing to use the full arsenal of federal powers to redirect soaring western energy revenues away from Alberta to Ottawa. For those of us in Western Canada, it is unpleasant to imagine what the outcome of this struggle would have been if a lesser man than Peter Lougheed had been at Alberta’s helm. But there is another aspect of the Lougheed legacy that is less remembered because it is less celebrated—also deservedly so. These were Lougheed’s ambitious economic diversification projects. Between 1973 and 1993 (when Ralph Klein became premier), the Lougheed-Getty “forced-growth” economic diversification projects are conservatively estimated to have cost Albertans $2.2 billion. While former premier Don Getty got most the blame for these losses (as many occurred during his watch), most of these programs began earlier. Lougheed’s push for government-led diversification of the Alberta economy was a policy hallmark of his 1971 electoral breakthrough, and marked a sharp break from three decades of Social Credit laissez-faire policies. The Lougheed-Getty diversification fiascos are of more than just historical interest. While the subsequent Progressive Conservative (PC) regime of Premier Ralph Klein (1993–2006) followed an explicit philosophy of “government is not in the business of business,” the more recent Stelmach (2006–11) and Redford (2011-14) governments have not.

    Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Government of Alberta Date of publication August 2019 Alberta Agriculture Hall of Fame Inductees ISBN 978-1-4601-4557-9 [email protected] 2 Alberta Agriculture Hall of Fame| Inductees Year Name Community Biography Portrait 2018 Garnet Altwasser Brooks Mr. Garnet Altwasser, became a leader in Canadian agribusiness during his 30- year term as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Lakeside Farm Industrees. Seeing the potential of Alberta's climate and agronomy to add value to the province's large ranching base, he co-founded and grew Lakeside Farm Industries into one the largest single-site feeding operations in Canada. With the establishment of a beef packing plant in Brooks, Altwasser also began the process of modernizing and growing Canada's beef processing industry. Altwasser was one of the first commercial adopters of Temple Grandin's cattle handling designs, and was a founding director of the Alberta Cattle Feeders Association. Altwasser is insatiably curious and inquisitive about what works and what succeeds in industry, and he has quietly helped and mentored young people to enter and grow in the industry. Today, Alberta's cattle feeding and beef processing industry is large-sclae and globally competitive, thanks in large part to Altwasser's long-range vision and leadership. Alberta Agriculture Hall of Fame| Inductees 3 2018 Dr. Ron Howard Brooks Dr. Ronald (Ron) Howard has spent more than four decades supporting the growth and development of high-value crop industries in Alberta, working with more than 50 different types of crops and plant species as a research, extension and diagnostic plant pathologist.
