After this last week, yes Alberta is screwed no matter what. Basically the coalition has put a gun to the conservatives heads "Buy votes in Quebec and Ontario or we'll do it". They had a choice before. They no longer have that option - someone will rain money down on the east. Where will that money come from? Well, where else CAN it come from?
I think the robbing will be less vicious under Harper; I at least have faith that if its the conservatives, their victim won't be beaten bloody and left for dead when its all said and done.
