Alberta, at 3.3 million, is Canada's 4th largest province in population, behind Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. Home of two of the country's major cities, Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta stretches from vast plains of wheat to the towering mountains of the Rockies. Such notable attractions such as Banff and world-class hotels keep Canadians visiting Alberta (which, by the way, is larger than New England & New York state combined!).
