In 1998, after being part of the Western Canada Region since 1989, the Members from Alberta succeeded in creating the 4th Region of Les Clefs d’Or Canada! The move was led by Elizabeth Forgie, Kim Randall and Eric Johnston.
The new Region, called the Alberta Region, regrouped Members from Calgary, Edmonton and Banff. The original members of the region included:

Elizabeth Forgie, Alberta Region Director 1998
- Elizabeth Forgie, Regional Director. Delta Bow Valley, Calgary
- Kim Randall, The Palliser Hotel
- Eric Johnston, The Palliser Hotel
- Troy Glenn, Delta Edmonton
- Kristi McClintock, Banff Springs Hotel
- Rory Zolob, Banff Springs Hotel
- Heiki Sommer, Banff Springs Hotel
The Region also counted on three Associates from Canadian Airlines:
- Arnitta Bergesen-Pahl
- Trish Haugen
- Nina Levy
Because of the new region being created, the Western Canada Region’s name was changed to the BC Region in order to reflect its new reality.
