So, I had to rent a car in Grande Prairie for work and I was absolutely shocked to find out that none of the car rental agencies rent cars with winter tires. It is complete garbage.
Add on to the fact that the majority of their fleet is 2WD and anything with All wheel drive / 4WD is booked extremely quickly.
I had to do a fair amount of highway driving up there and the roads were absolutely awful. I honestly don't know how someone can drive in Northern Alberta consistently without winter tires or 4WD. I will not be driving up there again unless I can be absolutely certain of the weather in winter.
