1. "Advanced, open and market-based"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberta

Alberta's economy is advanced, open, market-based, and characterized by a highly educated workforce, strong institutions and property rights, and sophisticated financial markets. While most Albertans work in the service sector, Alberta does possess a significant industrial base, intelligence economy and energy sector. This energy sector is famously focused in oil and gas extraction. Oil and gas has been culturally influential, having shaped politics, generated "striking it rich" narratives, and created boom-and-bust cycles.[18]
The majority of Alberta's exports are sent to the United States, and consist of 70% oil and gas, 13% food products, and 12% industrial products.[16][17]
In 2023, Alberta's output was $350 billion, 15% of Canada's GDP.[19]

This is another big issue in rural Alberta, where municipalities are owed approximately $254 million in unpaid taxes, according to Rural Municipalities of Alberta. The organization, which advocates for towns and counties across the provinces, says its members have written off an additional $200 million in debts, meaning it will never be collected.

These jerks could totally pay a piddly 200 million but they won’t .
Predatory parasites all…
