Hypocrites indeed.  I would add:
- Support for Alberta's industry that produces oil and gas:  BAD
- Support for Ontario's auto industry that burns oil and gas: GOOD

The anti-Alberta venting in the G&M comments over the past year or more has been difficult to understand.  The province has paid tens of billions of extra dollars in equalization payments  which have subsidized social programs in other provinces, yet the response has been "Make them pay PST too".   What's up with the visceral hate of the goose that's been laying golden eggs?
