[edit] POV

These are some examples that are not NPOV:

 Alberta is well known for its warm and outgoing friendliness and frontier spirit.
Both Edmonton and Calgary have quality symphony orchestras.
Keyano College in Fort McMurray is known throughout western Canada for its quality performances and curriculum
The province's universities stand equal to and well above many other institutions of higher learning in Canada
Alberta is an important destination for tourists who love to ski and hike
Alberta boasts several world-class ski resorts

These are examples, that I don't dispute, but I think need to be cited:

 Summer brings many festivals to the province. Edmonton's Fringe Festival is the world's second largest after 
Edinburgh's. Edmonton also hosts some of Canada's largest Folk Festivals, Multicultural Festivals, and
Heritage Days (to name a few). Calgary is also home to Carifest, the second largest Caribbean festival in
the nation (after Caribana in Toronto).
the Stampede welcomes around 1.2 million people each year
Edmonton is Alberta's number one tourism destination
Alberta is an important destination for tourists who love to ski and hike
