There are several unanswered questions so I will assume you moved as your wife got a good job and was earning more than you so the family decision was to relocate. I assume you are bilingual and are not in a cultural conflict.  If you return to Quebec it sounds as you wife will stay in Alberta so what is more important your marriage or your old job. If it is the marriage then explore beyond your old career. You are bilingual so it opens the door to federal government jobs or Air Canada. You could return to school and get a teaching certificate or become a private or corporate tutor. Whatever you earn to contribute to the relationship, financially, will be more than what you could by trying the long distance two home version that will just lead to divorce.
