Actually Alberta did have a law against scalping until the Amusements Act was repealed. I think it was in 2009. If you look at the first sticky posts on the Ticket Exchange, they were posted when scalping was illegal. I don't know why it was repealed but if I had to guess, anti-scalping laws seem a bit anti-free market so it might have been an ideological thing.
