Ah, he's a bit of an attention whore. I honestly think he just says things just to get back in the news cycle for a couple of days. No big deal.

i think the best part of his comments were when he labelled people as "balkanizing"...

I like the article.

Our boom is basically lifting the country (and the Canadian hockey teams we care so much about and all the East wants to do is complain. Or at least the MP's of the East.)

I agree we need to clean up our act. But it's the whole country, not just our industry. If we're going to be singled out for making the rest a little more wealthy than they can, well you know.

If we're helping the country through equalization and such, then we're obviously doing our part.
