Alberta Venture taps Edmonton Journal writer as new editor

Alberta Venture magazine, the business monthly, has appointed Paul Marck as its editor effective with the magazine's April 2010 issue. Marck had spent two decades at the Edmonton Journal, half of that time as a business writer before accepting the position. He succeeds Michael McCullough, who is returning to his hometown of Vancouver.

"To me, Alberta is an exciting, vibrant province with many stories of success, struggle and triumph yet to be told," says Marck in a release. "Canada's energy independence, a great and growing  portion of the country's agriculture and agri-food supply, and  opportunities in forestry, manufacturing and higher education depend on Alberta."
