According to a report from RBC Economics - Alberta has the most affordable housing in the country.

GP Realtors Association President, Lesley Craig, isn't exactly surprised by the report.

"The nice thing about our position here in Alberta is our recovery has been nice and steady, so prices of houses haven't really increased a huge amount just yet. We've got lots of activity going on, so lots of jobs lots of economic activity."

For the rest:
