Edmonton does, to a lesser extent.

This article says: "The word “trail” is used across our city and pays homage to the the old oxcart trail that existed between Calgary and Fort Benton in Montana."

Why Henday and Whitemud in Edmonton, 2 of the busiest urban freeways in the country are named "Drive" seems to have no explanation either. Alberta is just built different.
