no worries, i'll explain the situation briefly, mind you, my views on it will have a HUGE anti conservative bias, but still, the facts speak for themselves.

Alberta is the only province in canada that actually had a budget surplus, which is nice, except klein is letting it go to waste. We're by far the richest province in canada, and yet university fees this year went up by 6%. He blew up the bussiest hospital in the city, and the health care system has been in absolute dire condition ever since, I think i've given enough examples to make that situation quite clear. Now, instead of improving the health care system, or helping out university students, he decided to give every albertan $400. I know most of you probably think i'm a spoiled brat for complaining about this, but it's absolutely useless. It's f*cking easy to get a job in alberta, we don't need $400 from the government. That money would be FAR better used improving our hospitals. Putting even HALF that money into health care would help. I guess I shouldn't be surprised about any of this, you can't expect a high shcool drop out to be sympathetic towards students looking for a higher education.
