^^^ look for the dates that are $935 roundtrip

Google Flights: Edmonton to Brisbane, Australia (BNE)
^^^ look for the dates that are $933 roundtrip

Google Flights: Edmonton to Melbourne, Australia (MEL)
^^^ look for the dates that are $938 roundtrip

or
Melbourne (MEL)

- use the same dates you found on Google Flights

- the price on Skyscanner or Flighthub will usually be around $75 to $150 cheaper than what you see on Google Flights.

NOTE: The first search result on Skyscanner or Flighthub may not always be the best flights. Check out the different options on the first page of the results.

You may also want to try using the filters on either site to narrow it down to flights that are only 1 stop each way, if they're available for a low price.
