Oh please!  Get over yourself along with your arrogant, petty perceptions of regional disparity and injustice... with your comment, you blatantly typify the selfish stereotype of an arrogant and out-of-touch lotus-lander.

The fact is that BC has done far more to hinder and obstruct the economy of Canada than the other way around.  It's borderline treasonous, especially given the fact that were BC to have a huge earthquake, along with a huge hit to its economy, I doubt that the rest of Canada would ever be quite so isolationist, unsupportive and uncooperative in terms of helping fellow British Columbians to rebuild and get their economy back on track.  Too bad the selfish lotus-landers can't see fit to reciprocate!
