 :: This is why we don't leave the writing of Wikipedia articles about Canada solely in the trust of people who know more about ""BC bud"" than geography. >GRIN<. Seriously. I am a long time resident of Alberta, and we (at least most of the people I associate with) always include Saskatchewan and Manitoba when referring to ""Western Canada"". Let's keep the articles focused on striving for encyclopedic quality, which usually means toning down the xenophobia and leaving out personal political opinions.  16:08, 27 October 2007"
