We have this street called George Hills Way, which basically runs several blocks parallel to the waterfront, from Cow Bay (the touristy area of town) to the Cannery area. From late June to early September, you can see F350s; Silverados and Rams, all with boat trailers, all parked along GHW and virtually all of them sporting Alberta plates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they she would fight for her country though, which ever one she remains loyal to. Rodeo people are tough/ brave folk. Honestly I don't think I've ever seen a woman driver in pro chucks.....I've see out riders though and there's four in that picture. I don't like it when people put down a culture cause it's different or simple.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats three provinces you've pissed off. Edit* think hippie knows if Alberta , s.k and Manitoba joined and left Canada ......that b.c might be a lil scared lol It hurts all of Canada. 40 minutes ago, bishopshodan said: Nope. AB put the boycott on BC wine. No...Notley did and was stupid, as if anyone here drinks wine. The turning off the taps was the right approach. 37 minutes ago, RUPERTKBD said: Just curious....why do you think we'd be "scared"? Not scared but you would really then be your own island haha. 32 minutes ago, RUPERTKBD said: Albertans already "invade". Every summer. If anything, I think they'd be the ones who are scared that they might lose access to their favorite summer fishing spots. 24 minutes ago, RUPERTKBD said: I think "boom" is a bit of an overstatement...but yes, it helps the businesses that are connected to the recreational fishing industry. You need to travel more. The okanagan, east and west kootenays and the shuswap would be hit hard without Alberta money.

Up until very recently I was a director of a liquor store group. I remember there being quite a bit of concern at the time for the BC producers. '30 per cent of all wine sold in Alberta is from B.C., and that it has a retail value of $160 million.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does any good come from our side of the Rockies...... Don't really like any kind of Rye, TBH. Beer, Scotch and the occasional glass of red wine is pretty much it for me. Don't smoke weed either. (shocking, I know, for a BC resident ) Edit: Alberta Beef is good and Bourbon Street in West Edmonton Mall was pretty cool when I was there many years ago. (Not so fun fact: I was on the roller coaster a week before it went off the rails) Edited January 21, 2020 by RUPERTKBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
