I see, so now you are saying that Albertans in general are uneducated ... that educated people come from other provinces. Nice.

Well accepted by who? Please provide a link to a study that supports your statements, otherwise they're opinions, not facts and truths.

I'm curious about a couple things. You say that people go to the big city to get jobs and go to school. Who do you think populates the rural area? Illiterate, unemployed hillbillies? Have you ever actually been to rural Alberta? I find your assertions offensive and preposterous. Are they indicative of general Zorastrian thought, which your user name suggests you are an adherent of?
