- Edmonton (/ˈɛdməntən/ (listen) ED-mən-tən) is the capital city of the Canadian province of Alberta. Edmonton is situated on the North Saskatchewan River and is the centre of the Edmonton Metropolitan Region, which is surrounded by Alberta's central region. The city anchors the northern end of what Statistics Canada defines as the "Calgary-Edmonton Corridor," a region spanning between Edmonton and the city of Calgary, which includes the many smaller municipalities between the two.
As of 2021, Edmonton had a city population of 1,010,899 and a metropolitan population of 1,418,118, making it the fifth-largest city and sixth-largest metropolitan area (CMA) in Canada. Edmonton is the northernmost city and metropolitan area in North America to have a population of over one million. A resident of Edmonton is known as an Edmontonian.
Edmonton was first inhabited by several First Nations peoples, namely of Algonquian, Athabaskan and Siouan origin. These peoples and their ancestors inhabited the area of the modern city to varying amounts beginning at the close of the last glacial period, perhaps as early as 12,000 BC.The city was also a historic site for the Métis, who held many narrow lots along the North Saskatchewan which gave access to many resources in the area. By 1882, these lots numbered about 44, which was their peak, as they would soon be displaced and integrated by the expansion of the city of Edmonton. Anthony Henday may have been the first European to enter the area of modern-day Edmonton, whilst exploring the prairies of Rupert's Land for the Hudson's Bay Company in the autumn of 1754. By 1795, many trading posts had been established around the present metropolitan area, and by 1801 they had all moved to the current site of the city of Edmonton. "Fort Edmonton," as it was known, became the main centre for trade in the area after the 1821 merger of the HBC and the NWC. Edmonton remained sparse until the Canadian acquisition of Rupert's Land in 1870, followed eventually by the arrival of the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1891, its inauguration as a city in 1904 and its designation as the capital of the new province of Alberta in 1906. Edmonton's historic growth as a city has been facilitated through the absorption of five adjacent urban municipalities (Strathcona, North Edmonton, West Edmonton, Beverly and Jasper Place) in addition to a series of annexations through 1982, and the annexation of 8,260 ha (82.6 km2; 31.9 sq mi) of land from Leduc County and the City of Beaumont on January 1, 2019. Known as the "Gateway to the North", the city is now a staging point for large-scale oil sands projects occurring in northern Alberta and large-scale diamond mining operations in the Northwest Territories.
Edmonton is a cultural, governmental and educational centre. It hosts a year-round slate of festivals, reflected in the nickname "Canada's Festival City". It is home to Canada's largest mall, West Edmonton Mall (the world's largest mall from 1981 until 2004); and Fort Edmonton Park, Canada's largest living history museum.

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed the tour having lived in Edmonton for 24 years. The changes are amazing in the downtown core.
Was there last spring to visit, had a great time. Would you recommend ever living downtown?
Wow great vid friends, we moved from Alberta in 2021 to Mexico as it was our dream for the past 12 years to retire in Mexico. Alberta was good to us. Cheers everyone from Mexico. 👋🏽👋🏽✌🏽
Thank you for the great video. 😊👍

Nice video, thanks for sharing, greetings from Z travel logs :)
Wow great video
Big city, small town vibes
Firstly, great video.
Secondly I'll be visiting Canada from the UK next month. I'll be driving there so I have some questions, when are you allowed to turn right at the red light? I assume there will be signs saying no turning right at red light?
Also I noticed that you stay in the middle lane as you drive across the crossroad. I assume that this allows turning cars from the right side to turn into the far right side of the road. Is this the law?
One day I will come to have a walk in Edmonton
What is downtown Edmonton like in comparison with downtown Winnipeg in terms of rough people? I live in Winnipeg and whenever I am downtown I see a lot of rough people and sometimes even crime.
It's ok you mind your own business you will be alright.
As a resident of Edmonton, I don't know how this city can get more... uninteresting. Overall safe city, and a good place to raise a family but if you're looking for lots to do... you get the idea.
How about Nightlife to go out? and diversity?
Looks just like Winnipeg
Except it has slightly more people and is slightly larger
