We don't know of anyone that has used them in Alberta unfortunately. Whether or not they get approved seems to be hit and miss I have heard of several people in Ontario trying to use Ductless Air Exchangers, some had no problem and some were refused. I think the best bet for anyone that wants to try Installing ductless HRV ERV ventilation systems to check with their munipality first to make sure it will pass.
