However, its relatively remote location resulted in slow growth until the arrival of railway lines in the mid-1910s. It was one of the few agricultural cities in Alberta that continued to be successful during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, as it was spared the severe drought that plagued much of Alberta and the other provinces. Grand Prairie continues to have a large agricultural economy to the present day.<\/p>\n<p>Grande Prairie\u2019s entrance into oil and natural gas production was relatively late compared to similar cities. Explorative drilling did not begin until after the oil strike at Leduc in 1947, and exploration and production did not begin on a large scale until the 1970s. Grand Prairie proved to have reservoirs of natural gas and oil \u2014 the Elmworth Deep Basin, to the west of the town, proved to be the second-largest gas field in North America when it was discovered in the 1970s \u2014 and its economy and population both expanded quickly as a consequence. Unfortunately, this period of growth was quickly tempered by the decline in oil prices in the early 1980s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grande Prairie Natural Gas Retailers and
