Man, fuck these UCP idiots.

Provincial governments need to work closely with the federal government. The provincial government actually has a responsibility to establish and nurture that relationship, and not simply throw temper tantrums when the relationship isn't what they want it to be. When the UCP chooses to be oppositional and obstructive like this, it hurts Alberta citizens, and makes life worse.

There are a lot of things I love about Alberta. But if the next provincial election shows that a majority of the citizens truly want a provincial government that behaves like this, I'm outta here.

Born and raised in Calgary, moved to Van Island about 3 years ago. Other than the Rockies and close friends, we don't miss AB at all

BC needs to somehow convince Alberta to give us the mountians. Maybe tell em it's full of liberals or something. Idk though might be hard to convince them to give up the good part of the province.
