      I feel like smith is less about electoral reform and more about “Alberta has the right to extract as much oil as it wants, in whatever method it wants and is exempt from any and all regulations”

        And all the other provinces have to build pipelines to ship it. And no transfer payments to provinces that didn’t accidentaly have oil underneath, but we still get full services from the government.
