The easiest way to clean up Lethbridge is to make it the gateway to paradise for Americans coming up to highway 3. Social pressure would transform that city.

That, or just give it all the world's most hated Australian.
You would think. Some locals don’t like “citiots” and their liberal ways. Part-timers have driven property values up 40% in four years. I think my home
has gone up $100K in one year. Many don’t want CNP to be another Canmore or Fernie. I think this a much better path than a coal mine.

People don’t want minimum wage tourism jobs, and believe a coal mine will pay handsomely.
