I don't recall exactly what it is either, though I do recall that Alberta has the highest median family income of any province.

With over 70% of income going to home ownership in Vancouver, that's one of the reasons some people think Vancouver is unsustainable and is going to have a big correction, while Calgary is still at 45% last I saw (though it's probably over 50% by now).. still too high, but wages are increasing faster in Alberta than anywhere else too.

We're not at the top of housing prices, not yet.
