You are correct but 50% of the blame has to be put on the shoulders of western politicians and prairie voters. We should have followed the lead of Quebec and established the equivalent of the Bloc Quebecois years ago instead of groveling for acceptance by the east, something that never happened and never will. We looked at Laugheed as being our best shot at recognition and what we got was the theft of our oil and gas revenue.

Western representation in cabinet can achieved only if the Conservatives win the next election, Alberts has two Liberal M.Ps, Boissonnault from Edmonton and Chalal from Calgary, this man was probably overlooked for a cabinet post because of his police investigated campaign interference in his riding. Boissonnault certainly seems very woke and fits in nicely with Trudeaus agenda. We also have Wilkinson from Vancouver who works closely with Trudeau to kill the fossil fuel industry. We, in the West, certainly are second class citizens in Trudeaus mind!!
