Mr. Munchy, I'm not really sure what you mean about violating the constitution...the notwhistanding clause is a PROVISION of the constitution. If memory serves, it's section 33 of the Charter.

And heroquest, although I love King Ralph, I understand that a lot of people feel the way you do. Like Bush in the US, Klein is right wing to a large enough extent that he acts as a polarizing force. And it's altogether possible that he would be less popular if Alberta wasn't awash in such oil wealth (but I doubt it). However that's a moot point anwyay, because Alberta is going to be Canada's richest province for all of my lifespan, and likely my children's. So I think perhaps calling him shortsighted would be inaccurate.
