Your comments show the absolute little you do know about Alberta and the diversification. There are many areas that are not related to the oil and gas industry, just that you cannot see them due to your extreme envy of Alberta.
Serious economic analysts, including those in Alberta, disagree with you.
Okay, who?
Absolute unproveable garbage. Quit your whining.
Actually it has come up time and again at premiers conferences because you've been poaching people from us. It's a major point that is discussed at all levels of government and private industry.
Quit whining. If your provinces had half as much on the ball as Alberta, then they would not leave, would they? You keep saying how Alberta is so bad, but then complain because people come here. Pretty inconsistent. Quit dragging Alberta to your level, and try to get your province up to the level of Alberta if you are losing too many folks to Alberta.
If that were true, and given the vast amount of ego you possess about yourself, one would have thought you would have been hired first of all.
Why the hell would I want to move to Alberta.
Well, you said the best and brightest come to Alberta, but then I guess that answers the question, doesn't it.
Yes I have scruples, something you know nothing about, and it is not a lie. Proven records.
What proven records, Dougie? Do you mean the way the economy in Manitoba improved when doer took over? Do you mean the way Romanow saved Saskatchewan from bankruptcy after Devine's mismanagement? Do you mean the way that, for all the years he was premier of Saskatchewan, Tommy Douglas never once ran a deficit but managed to institute universal health care, and build highways and infrastructure?
The record of the NDP speaks for itself, Troll Boy. It is as good or better than other parties with the added bonus of bettering the lives of average people. You can't handle that so you perpetuate lies.
And what about the engine plants and their employees?
Do you think they care if they are building engines to run on gasoline or eco-diesel?
