Fort McMurray, Alberta, is located about 435 kilometres northeast of Edmonton, nestled in the boreal forest at the confluence of the Athabasca and Clearwater rivers. What attracts people to the community are the rewarding jobs created by the oil sands industry. What convinces people to stay is the sense of close-knit community, abundance of natural beauty and excellent quality of life.
