But thanks for the pocket change.
It went both ways.

We had a lunchroom chat with one of our executives last week and he told a story of when he was a teenager growing up in Ontario and his experience coming to Alberta for the first time. His father sent him to Alberta to work for the summer and when he returned to Ontario, his family (I guess it was an important family) was having dinner with Pierre Trudeau and they had this discussion:

Ontario Boy: "Did you know there are a lot of hard working people in Alberta that feel like your government doesn't care about them and that they don't matter?"

Pierre Trudeau: "That's right. They don't matter!!!"
