This isn't mine originally, I saw it somewhere else, but it really succinctly sums up much of the Alberta attitude. It wasn't until I moved away from Alberta, and then out of Canada, that I really realized how petty this attitude is.

Also, as other posters have pointed out, some of you would do well to take a look at Alberta's financial history before complaining about bailing out other provinces. How did those Prosperity Certificates work out for you all?
Other provinces aside, how is it petty in regards to Quebec. As someone who has no real desire to leave Alberta it would be great to get the Quebec perspective from a seasoned traveller such as yourself.

Other provinces we all get, Quebec is the only one.
