With the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Albertans are invited to offer their condolences to the Royal Family.

“For many of us, Her Majesty is the only monarch we’ve ever known, essential to our identity as Albertans and Canadians. In this period of mourning, let’s come together in expressing our compassion and support for the Royal Family, whose devastating loss we share,” said Jason Kenney, Premier of Alberta, on Friday.

The government says messages of support can be shared through an online book of condolence, which is available at alberta.ca/QueenElizabethMemorial. Albertans may also visit the following provincial buildings and government centres to provide handwritten condolences.

Weekdays and weekends, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, you are asked to consider donating to a charity of your choice or to one of the many Canadian charities championed by Her Majesty, such as the Canadian Red Cross Society or Canadian Cancer Society.
