You're right I shouldn't be making light of a dark chapter in many Albertans past, for that I apologize. My bad.

However, I still believe that the NEP hangover may be clouding peoples judgement (OMG it is a Liberal get my rifle!). And I also believe that Dinning is the best choice for economic diversification (I haven't anything by Morton and Stalmech), which is Alberta's best hedge against the inevitable decline in energy prices.
