lets not forget that Nova Scotia didn't want to join confederation, then did and had our money leave to go out West.
Now that we need a helping hand we're saying that it's bad and shouldn't be?
I made a post a number of month ago about Nova Scotia's diversification back at the turn of the 1900's. Steel, Coal, Fishery, while coal was an input to steel they weren't so dependant on each other that was effected on devistated the other. Sydney Steel could have kept operating without Devco Coal.
Regardless, all those industries collapsed at roughly the same time.
But Nova Scotia would be cut loose because we're a drain on the system, and taking hard working Albertans money from the tar sands.
