The Alberta rules that apply

Consumer credit in Alberta is licensed by the provincial or territorial regulator, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.

Small places are covered the same way as large ones: census figures for the place, and the provincial position on lending.

How borrowing works locally

Provincial licensing decides who may lend, and federal rules add a ceiling where a licensed payday regime exists.

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments. A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision.
