Her message should not have been for AB tax payers to leave and become BC tax payers, it should have been to try another profession in the short term until O&G recovers. The most important point being... STAY IN ALBERTA.

Unfortunately for you guys, looks like you may be headed towards a 'Great Exodus' much like what the NDP put us thru in SK for decades.
The Saskatchewan ndp under aroma ow saved the province from bankruptcy and provided the road map that Canada followed to get out of deficits.

Blakeneys NDP and Devines Conservatives was what drove investment out of the province. Wall has been quite could there after the lacklustre Calvert years but this great Exodus concept being blamed on the NDP is pretty false.
