Ya thats all you need to reregister in AB. I would also get the dude to fax you a signed bill of sale for it too. ICBC can be hard to deal with. :d

ICBC can be a royal pain...we buy stuff in AB all the time and bring it back to BC, we've had some issues even when we have everything.
You do need the small part of the AB registration form that it sounds like you may have. That will have vehicle reg info, owner info etc. and it'll be signed when they sell you the vehicle. Make sure you get the right part.
Then in BC you also need a signed bill of sale saying exactly the same info...make sure that all names on the registration, are also on the bill of sale, one name will not do, and that they are exactly the same as on the registration form. Then you'll have to get the trailer there for inspection usually too.
Good luck.

if it is a double sled trailer you can insure it as a u-built and it only costs 18 to get it registered with out an inspection. just remove the vin number and weld something on it to make it U-built lol. I do it so I only need one plate for 3 trailers lol
