How did you get to the lower income tax amount, given that it would appear from the official Canada Revenue Agency website figures[0] that provincial income tax seems generally higher in Alberta than in Ontario - especially the first 45k where the Ontario rate (5.05%) is just over half of the Alberta rate (10%). But even in the highest marginal tax bracket, Ontario seems to top out at 12.15% while Alberta tops out at 14%.
So your statement about income tax savings seems difficult to reconcile with the income tax charts without some other explanation.
