It is. Try living in a maritime province where all you get from the government is promises, promises. While a couple of provinces who seem to have things figured out in today's economy and politics (Alberta, Quebec) still get more attention than is deserved because they are somehow more "distinct" than other parts of the country. Bull!

What irks me most is that many Albertans forget where they came from and that most of the funding for the exploration and development of the province came from eastern parts of the country. Now they want to get while the getting is good. I consider that very disrespectful.
