I don't see what's so great about the "swelling coffers" of Alberta. It's just more money unused in a province that has roads in worse condition than Moncton's. If people have something to say I doubt a 25 year old ruckus over the NEP will keep anyone quiet about perceived unfairness.

Ontario fears 'have-not' status: In-the-red province eyes booming Alberta

Its almost like we're worried that cousin Ontario is gonna come over and maybe pee in the money pool. Personally I'd be more worried about Calgary kicking the rest of the Alberta family out of the pool and saying its all theirs.

Hey Daggers,

I can't make the show on friday, is there anyway we can get it moved to another day?

From Goldberg's list, I can't say I'm surprised he has Noam Chomsky at number 11 -- though, admittedly, I think that's bullshit.

The rationale?
11. Noam Chomsky (MIT professor of linguistics): While he is the most-cited living author, or the "most important intellectual" according to the New York Times, Chomsky hates America. He describes the Cold War as the United States's continuation of the Nazi agenda, and he frequently points to more extreme cases of terrorism done by the US than what happened on 9/11. Chomsky is the epitome of the anti-American intellectual.

I know little about his statement regarding the Cold War and the Nazi agenda, so I can't really comment on that -- but, yes, without any context, it does sound ridiculous. But, when it comes to him pointing out "more [Xtreme] cases of terrorism done by the US"... are we supposed to just ignore those atrocities?

The lesson? Hypocrisy is bad; pointing out hypocrisy is worse.
