Appendix II: High School Mathematics Competitions in Alberta
Edited by Andy Liu
Although there are older mathematics competitions in Canada for high school students, Alberta was the first to have a province-wide contest. It started in 1957 as the •’Alberta Matriculation Prize and Scholarship Examination,” sponsored by the Nickle Family Foundation (Calgary), the Canadian Mathematical Congress (now Society), the Mathematics Council of The Alberta Teachers’ Association, the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Calgary and the Department of Mathematics at the University of Alberta.
