The two most populous centres in Alberta are Edmonton, the capital of the province, and Calgary which is seen as the corporate epicentre of the province. Both cities are very close in population both hovering around the 1.4 million mark. There are two levels of court in Alberta dealing with civil litigation: The Court of Queen's Bench and Provincial Court Civil Division. Appeals from Provincial Court are to Queen's Bench and appeals from Queen's Bench are to the Alberta Court of Appeal.
