Every time I see something like this happen that headline and picture come back into my memory. It's the most self righteous BS I've ever seen. Not to mention, the editor of the Herald is a clearly a complete ###### bag. Do they really think most of their costumers wanted to read something about how a few rich guys are getting richer? Bunch of crooks.
Is anyone in Calgary doing this? I doubt it. Clearly oil execs in Calgary will benefit, but they aren't making the price skyrocket based on some vague "reasons" tied to the bank bailout in the States.
