Alanna Hnatiw

First elected in 2017

First elected in 2017, Mayor Hnatiw lives on the small farm where she raised her family—both the two-legged and four-legged kind.

As a leader, she is dedicated to removing barriers and seeking innovative solutions to current challenges, all while building a community rich with opportunities for people of all ages, from youth to seniors. A prosperous and self-sustaining future for Sturgeon County is a key priority for her. Mayor Hnatiw is committed to diversifying agriculture and industry, supporting small businesses, and making progress at the speed of relevance.

She is the founding Chair of the Edmonton Region Hydrogen Hub, a past Chair of Alberta’s Industrial Heartland, and a former Vice-Chair of the Edmonton Metropolitan Regional Board. For four years, she served on the governing body of the Canadian Hydrogen Convention, where she was named Hydrogen Leader of the Year in 2023.
