Yes, there are legitimate problems with the decisions Ottawa has made. There's been legitimate problems with the decisions the Alberta government has made as well. That holds true for every province, we're not special in that regard. The smart move is to do our best to make the best of the situation, not nurse old grudges like children throwing temper tantrums.
Every country has cracks that can be leveraged. If we'd use our bloody heads for something other than a hat rack, we wouldn't let ourselves be suckered by every interest that tries to yank our chains. We had the best education in North America for 30 years. We have zero excuses for getting dog-walked into a wood chipper like this.
