Well in all fairness the US would have collected the deposit. I suppose they could accept the empties and not give a refund but then people probably wouldn't return them anyway.

I was talking to someone about this last time I went to the depot, there was a sign right out front that said there was a $50,000.00 fine for redeeming containers purchased outside Alberta. I doubt they have ever enforced that though.
