It's like bragging that you didn't shoot yourself in the foot.

I think more has been done than you give them credit for.
I am not trying to puff out Alberta's chest, I just think that more credit is deserved than many give credit for.
If people want to believe that it is only due to the fact that oil is here it makes no difference to me. They are welcome to do so. I think they will be dissapointed when Alberta's economy does not fall apart in their lifetimes.
