Thats a tough question, I was in my early teens.

Here's what I know, we lost our car, my parents lost their business, we almost lost the house, but ended up selling a lot of our stuff to keep it.

Downtown was dark.

There was a lot more anger, I know that much, when I talk to my old man about it there was an air of rebellion when it came to anything Ottawa.

I would think that the general layoffs, business dying and everything is going to be similar.

I think with the NEB crisis, the feeling was it would eventually stop and things would turn around. I get the sense here that nobody thinks that this is going to turn around for a long time and that we'll never fully bounce back oil industry wise.

The anger is also a lot more directed North then West as well.
