Not to be a wise ass, but when the oil runs out, Alberta will be broke.

Calgary has a bit of a high tech thing happening (though I have done nothing but lose money by investing in it - Wilan for example)

I would try to spend your money with an eye to the future.

Oil is king today, but it is a limited resource.

Why don't we follow in the footsteps of the Maritimes, rely on our resource, and when it runs out, slather on the wonderful Canadian thing called: EQUILIZATION.

The thought of another Trudeau as PM makes me shiver. As much as I hate the idea, people from central Canada would probably flock behind the man.


Huh? only you guys think we're the centre of the universe. We're too busy tryin to pay our bills to take note.

Justin was just a throw out, but you catch my drift? somebody fresh, with cachet. Even Joe Clarke's daughter would get my vote (Carolyn?) I don't care where he/she comes from, just toss out the old boys. And besides, I think the Trudeau boys are fairly Western conscious.

Exactly, Central Canada is too busy in their own world to hear the West's concerns. ;)

So you think relatives of the old boys is someone fresh? I have no issues with tossing out the old boys, but I hardly think bringing in their sons and daughters will do any good.
