You'd need to check the Expo/Commonwealth schedules ahead of time to avoid big events (& maybe also check for festivals in Borden Park).
If you want to try actual streets, I'd bet the Edmonton Research & Development Park (next non-neighbourhood over from South Edmonton Commons) is pretty quiet on weekends.
When someone was trying to teach me to drive, they took me to a subdivision under construction (on a non-work day), which went OK. Then we tried quiet rural range roads, which wasn't too bad. Then one of those range roads intersected a busy highway at an uncontrolled intersection where I was stopped on a hill & I kept on stalling the manual transmission trying to get moving in time to get out in a gap in traffic & we ended up having to switch drivers as someone behind us honked & swerved past. 😬 So, uh, maybe don't do that part.
