> Income taxes are way lower in Alberta than Ontario; moving my remote-ok tech job to calgary was equivalent to getting a five-figure raise.

This is completely false.

Albert’s income tax rates are:

10% on the first $131,220 of taxable income, + 12% on the next $26,244, + 13% on the next $52,488, + 14% on the next $104,976, + 15% on the amount over $314,928

Ontario’s income tax rates are:

5.05% on the first $45,142 of taxable income, + 9.15% on the next $45,145, + 11.16% on the next $59,713, + 12.16% on the next $70,000, + 13.16% on the amount over $220,000

Sales tax is lower in Alberta (5% be 13% in Ontario), but income tax, especially on the first $100,000 is significantly higher.
