From the Fsheries Act (Canada) Alberta Regulations

The only legal common name for "Sander vitreus" in Alberta is Walleye.

Someone else can jump in here as to why Alberta lists the latin name for Walleye as "Sander vitreus" while other provinces and territoies use the latin name "Stizostedion vitreum". I'd rather be fishing..
