Looks like an introduced species. Almost tropical of some sort, just my 2 cents.

Either way SRD should be informed if it was caught in Alberta waters.

I am assuming saltwater.

It is a spotted rose snapper.

Very good eating, even if it is small.

That's a beautiful fish, I'll bet your daughter was thrilled! Did you let it back or cook it?

PS: Nice photo
