Why? it's Feb. Vancouver's weather will be 6C and wet. It's a given.

But the way this thread is going, Van weather reports should carry SK employment status, too.

I don't read the Star Pheonix, that is Saskatoon. There was no mention of being #1 in today's Regina Leader-Post

Well if a journalist decided to write an article on provincial unemployment stats for Sask, do you think they'd lead with other province's stats? Or Sasks?

It's not about declaring a winner, it's about being pertinent to the province you're discussing and publishing in.

Let me see, employment stats for Yakutsk, RU published by the Curacao Chronicle's crossword editor. Makes sense to me. lol

WTF does that have to do with anything in this thread?

It speaks to the chronic small mindedness, parochialism and chauvinism replete in Alberta's media-which is incidentally the subject of this thread.

You're Welcome.

Ah. Thanks.

-which is incidentally the subject of this thread.

Funny, I thought the topic was the employment rate in AB, posted in the Calgary Herald's business section.

You're Welcome.

I know.

FYI-Deliberately misunderstanding other's posts adds nothing to the board.

This is rich coming from anyone in BC's lower mainland. Hell, most of your media don't even acknowledge the Okanagan, never mind the northern interior of the province, or points beyond, save Ottawa when they're on an anti-Harper rant.

No doubt... Now factor-in the child-like mentality of the population at large in Bill's city of residence and you get a strong understanding of the motivations behind the comments.

In fact, if memory serves, wasn't the VSE considered the most corrupt exchange on the planet and allowed to be such due to the myopic, irresponsible and narrow-mindedness of the gvt, media and people of BC?
