No I'm not. I'm Captain BC.
Just had to abandon ship for a bit to survive.

This is the winner for the most ignorant post of the year.
I'm from BC. lived there until I was 40. Lost my job 3 times in 3 years and moved to Alberta. Albertan's are by and large the most accommodating people I have ever met. As I sit in my office up on site at this moment, I'm looking at people from Banglidesh, Kenya, Philippines, Zimbabwe, Newfoundland and Ontario. That's just my office. There are 10's of thousands of people from all over the world here trying to make a decent living.
I make fun of this province all the time (Anus of Alberta) BUT THE PEOPLE HERE ARE AMAZING! NO racial bias at all, just good people doing our jobs.
Alberta keeps most of this country at the status that we all enjoy. I know it kills a lot of people in group to hear that, but it is true. Can we do better with the environment, yes. But believe me this place is changing all the time trying to improve.
I will move back to BC soon (thanks Pyrogenesis stock PYR) because I love the climate, ocean, mountains,my family left behind, etc but don't talk bad about the people here.
Rant over...

i have friends that moved from there to here but had to move back due to jobs/economics/affordability. trust me, they say worse about alberta and albertans than me and are dying to move back.

but that doesn't mean that all albertans suck. a lot of what's said on this thread isn't meant to be taken literally (or seriously a lot of times.)

however, if you're going to take offense at every offhand joke made here, you're definitely going to be complaining a lot more than even LH and that's hard to do.

Live to fight another day

I seen yesterday that Washington are looking into purchasing Washington Generals name from the Globetrotters.

SFU Clansmen changing their name.

Edmonton Eskimos recently had multiple talks with Inuit natives and they said they are not offended by the name.

Chicago and Atlanta are on the hot seat also for name changes.

Yup, just physical distance and try not to encourage roster line ups for the 2026-27 season.
