What's weird is that we don't get more alpine success from Western Canadians.
Yeah, the same kind of hills like Canyon I Red Deer. But beginner programs anyway, in my experience, are very cheap there. Community programs. $40 there where I would pay $275 in AB. TBH, I do not know for certain it applies to 'all' sports, but it was for anything we put my daughter in there.
It was about the only value I could see in the high tax burden. Well that, and snow removal.

BTW, here in Chicagoland, what was $40 in Quebec is now $500. It's way different though. It's private. It's Exclusive.
It's very American
