Effective April 1, 2023, the Provincial Court of Alberta will be renamed to the Alberta Court of Justice.
Requested by the Provincial Court of Alberta, this change better “describes the relationship between our citizens and the justice they seek from our court.”[1]
UPDATE (April 3): Judges are now referred to as Justices.
