The fact they say we don't have a tax then you get your hotel bill and their is 129 a night plus city travel fee plus visitor fee plus life fee. Oh bill is now 169

When ever we drive in AB, always get better mileage than here. Down hill gains more than up hill costs?
Extremely busy highways is a minus.

They are not Quebec

They don't smell like fish like the newfoundlers

They have a few libertarians

They have the west Edmonton mall

They have Tom so god must be on their side

It's Feb 19th and 12C! Highway 40 through K Country. Badlands. Peace Country. Peter's Drive In. Co-operative spirit - over 700 registered co-ops in Alberta. Reigning Grey Cup champions. International airports. A Muslim mayor named best in the world by his peers. One party rule (sarcasm)!

[rkaiser]

blackpowder, a little white powder and close enough to BC to the green leafy stuff whenever we need it.

[rook]

2 CFL teams
1 nhl team ( as an oil fan it pains me to say that, although they've been improving)
Rockies, parkland, and prairies, cypress hills, big rivers including the peace and athabasca
Oil, gas, feedlots, coal, lactose, rodeos, oilsands, pickups, GMOs, gluten, fracking and other things that irritate granolas and liberals
A highway named after the queen
A significant (but decreasing) chunk of the population that will still give give the middle finger to intrusive government
Relative to the rest of the globe, fair government, although not as good as it could be

[furrowtickler]

Close enough to Sask to visit when needed.
