I'm not blaming anyone. I'm just saying we can't keep pretending that booms are business as usual. This province has a cyclical economy. It booms big, then it crashes big. So let's prepare for the crashes.

So what are you doing to diversify the province's economy? Have you started a business that doesn't rely on oil and gas, or customers who get their money from oil and gas? Do you create software that you sell out of province? Or develop drugs or health care technology with a global market? Let's hear your contribution.
