Grande Prairie is a city in Alberta, Canada. It is at the crossing of Highway 43 and Highway 40 (the Bighorn Highway).
Grande Prairie was the seventh-largest city in Alberta in 2016, with 63,166 people living there,[1] and was one of Canada's fastest growing cities between 2001 and 2006,[2] and Canada's most northern city with more than 50,000 people.
The city has the swan as its official symbol because it is close to the birds moving route. Grande Prairie is also sometimes named the "Swan City".
