Albertans do not like being dictated to by a central authority, whether it be Ottawa or Washington.

I have no doubt the US would want Alberta but I think they would have to do an awful lot to convince Albertans that they would want the USA. The "we'll protect you because we have a big army" won't work in their favour.
