Edmonton is the capital city of Alberta, Canada, and known as the "Gateway to the North" as it is the staging point for large-scale oil sands projects and diamond-mining operations. Located by the North Saskatechewan River, Edmonton is a major economic center for the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries, and is also the headquarters of large Canadian companies such as the Katz Group, AutoCanada, Boston Pizza, and Shaw Communications. Edmonton is home to North America's largest shopping mall, and is the testing ground for American retailers, such as Bath & Body Works and Calvin Klein. Major financial institutions such as TD Canada Trust, Canadian Western Bank, and ATB Financial also call Edmonton home.
