He represented Calgary West, and then later Calgary Southwest. Got his degree in the University of Calgary.

I'm aware of that. So he's lived in Calgary more than any other city in his life, he roots for the Calgary hockey team, he represents a riding in Calgary, his home is in Calgary, he went to university in Calgary, and yet he's not a Calgarian. Wow, Ben.

Large deepwater port. More mines and trees then you can shake a stick at. I\m sure we'd be begging to join Alberta.

Mines and trees? WTF? That's small beans.

As for your port, who cares. Pipelines, *****es!

Tell me, Ben, how much does Alberta use your port right now? And would BC actually forbid Alberta's use of the port (which they'd pay for) had they not been in the same country? I don't think so.

Out of all of BC, Alberta, and Saskatchewan now...BC is the weakest link.
