Hi, Laurie.

So I gather you like high taxes?
You like governments throwing money [away] at a plethora of problems?
You like government interference in almost everything?
You like bloated bureaucracies and red tape?
You like short prison sentences for hardcore criminals?

I could tell you this, Laurie...If Alberta leaves confederation,
B.C. would have no choice but to follow suit.
Ontario and Quebec politicians aren't very popular in Alberta.
