It's all about society today, the people that expect to have everything handed to them, rather than having to work for it, the people that live their lives borrowing to the limit, then struggling to make their payments. And that description seems to describe far more big city people, especially in Edmonton, and now Calgary is headed in the same direction.
Voters look at none of that, they are looking for goodies. It is sad what we have devolved to in the west.
