The Alberta Canola Producers Commission (ACPC), founded in 1989, was the province's first refundable checkoff producer organizations. The mandate of the Commission, reflected in its mission statement, is to increase the long term profitability of Alberta canola growers through research, promotional activities, consumer and producer education programs, and policy development. The Commission in no way regulates or is involved with the production, buying or selling of canola.

The ACPC is funded by a refundable $1.00 per tonne service charge paid by Alberta canola growers when they sell their canola.

All decisions regarding the Alberta Canola Producers Commission are made by the Board of Directors. Alberta is segregated into 12 regions. Each region elects a director to represent the growers of that region in the ACPC. The Board of Directors meet as a whole every three months. There is no active executive committee. The Board is guided in its decisions by the recommendations from four committees: Research and Demonstration, Market Development, Member Relations and Extension, and Administration. The ACPC Board elects the Chair, Vice Chair, and Committees at the first Board Meeting after the Annual General Meeting.
