Here I thought it was a thread about insurance rates. Those turbos really raise the premiums.

I'm pretty sure if Alberta's population was demographically adjusted you would find it no worse than other provinces. We're pretty much the only province with a median age below 40.

Does the article say "some" STI's as opposed to "all" implied by the title of the thread?

Yup and you can add to that the number of workers who work out of town. That makes a big difference in behaviour.

As many have said, it's absolutely because of the high transient worker population in the province. Globally, this is one of the indicators of increasing STIs.

STIs were way cooler when they were called STDs.
