I live in Alberta. I can't speak for the rest of us but I'm really PO'd. Once again we've been given the back of the hand and told to sit down and shut up (and, oh, don't forget to keep sending those tax dollars back east).
I'll be looking for a credible separatist option starting today. My ideal outcome would be to become the 51st state.
Cheers
Jim
I don't get much Canadian news in West Texas . . . just generally what I read on FR . . . but it always amazes me that you Albertans sure seem to get pounded on a lot by the muckety-mucks in Ottawa. Most folks I've met online from Alberta seem to have the same goals and values of my Texan neighbors. I live in cattle country and I know that's also a big part of the Albertan economy so my guess is we're all from the same-type of hardy stock.
Alberta would be a welcome addition.
