there is no pst... alberta has one of the lowest tax rates in canada.. its also the only province that is completely debt free (or will be in november)... they are about to announce an approx $7 billion surplus for the province...

as of now, are pretty good but they are going to be injecting massive amounts of money into public school system over next few years...
