Alberta doesn't have a revenue problem nearly as much as it has a problem managing expectations.

Or you could make more money and afford to pay for quality rather than spending less and driving around in a 1974 Lada, staying at the super 8 motel, and having a vacation of seeing the glorious backyard.
Obviously we won't be able to afford everything we like, but when there are people who are complaining about the government and spending who have received money to rebuild their basement, it rings hollow. People only want the government to spend money on things that benefit them directly.
