I ' m more of an independent myself but wouldn ' t you say the same thing about Liberals ? One of the things that drives me away from both parties , neither really understand compromise anymore and it makes for an incredibly ineffective government <| sep |> What I mean is , why aren ' t BC and MB generating more hydro power than they use and selling it to AB and SK ? I recognize that there are losses over distances , but the distances between the Hydro projects in MB and Winnipeg are already pretty substantial and it seems to work out pretty well for us regardless . I ' m sure there are some closer to Saskatoon than Winnipeg . I ' m less sure about how the hydro projects are laid out in BC relative to AB cities , but I ' d imagine it ' s similar .
