Carsia sororiata seems to be quite a variable species but I think that's what I photographed. Confirmation of this identification is appreciated!

I've collected specimens very similar in pattern to this one in the Swan Hills, AB.

Looks good .... to me
The only moth i know that might look simliar, is a Xanthorhoe defensaria moth .... and they're only way out west. Besides, your specimen has the Carsia sororiata's "rusty" TM.
