Where you are unsure, confirm the details with the consumer protection regulator in Alberta before you sign anything.
Rules and Costs in Alberta
If you borrow in Alberta, two layers of rules apply. Federal law sets the criminal rate of interest at 35% APR, and Alberta adds its own consumer protection requirements on licensing, disclosure, and cancellation.
Payday lending is the clearest example of the difference: nine provinces operate a payday regime and Quebec effectively bans payday loans. Check the current rules with the provincial regulator rather than relying on a general guide.
When you compare instalment loans in Alberta, ask each lender to confirm in writing that it is licensed to lend in the province and to provide the APR and total cost of borrowing.
