Yep..much of Ralphs popularity is basically due to the fact that he has been premeir during a time of relative prosperity for alberta. Much of this prosperity is outside his control, as he cannot control world oil prices. Klein and Lougheed both benefited being premiers during boom times in the industy. Poor Getty on the other hand was the SOB who had to see $10 and under oil, had to break the bad news that the mighty heritage trust fund wasn't as mighty as albertabs thought. No wonder he is rarely if ever brought up by anyone in Alberta anymore.

Interesting Posts Ally. But through it all,might I recommend, shutting the boarder down to Reigh Zingers who think the answer to all their ( and our? ) problems, lies at the snout of a gun? How discouraging it must be for those who have studied the humanities. How discouraging it must be for those who have studied and given much of their lives to further ourselves as a society. How discouraging it must be for those who fought in both World Wars and are alive to see the results. How discouraging it must be for those who survived the Holocaust. How discouraging it must be for those who would stand up to those who would see us enslaved. How discouraging it must be for those who saw our country rise and fall and rise again to the occasion. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs back. KC
