I have hunted wild Boar and Wild pigs in France, Germany, Poland, Hungary and a number of U.S. states. The issue in Alberta is there just aren't that many running loose to make a truly huntable population. It is actually quite a lot cheaper to go to the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, Texas or even Hawaii to hunt pigs. There are also a couple of hunt farms here in Alberta for wild pig. What you pay in airfare and hunt costs will pale in comparison to what you will spend locating huntable numbers in Alberta, unless you live very close to a spot with a few animals. I don't mean this to discourage you, but you would be better off hunting bear if you are looking for meat and challenge. There are more of them and they taste better than wild pig. Hunting is fun and a guys should do as much as you can so if you decide to still go looking for wild pigs I wish you all the luck possible.
