Alberta Stock Exchange


The Alberta Stock Exchange was a stock exchange based in Calgary, Alberta, established in 1913. It featured mostly mining, resource exploration, and oil sands stocks. The ASE was the original listing exchange for Bre-X, one of the biggest corporate frauds in Canadian history.
On November 29, 1999, the ASE was merged into the Canadian Venture Exchange, along with the Vancouver [Stock Exchange] and later the Winnipeg Stock Exchange and the minor-cap stocks from the Bourse [de Montréal]. The corporate headquarters of the new CDNX remained in Calgary.
