More feeble and arrogant Albertans whining over normal business cycles and seeking handouts from tax payers.

A good deal of the blame can be placed directly on the failed Conservative ideology which trains corporations to believe that government has some sort of control over the economy, which it doesn't.  If the Conservatives want to claim credit for good business results in the boom times when economic demand for Canadian resources is high, then they can also take blame for poor business results in the down times when economic demand for Canadian resources is low.

Tell the businesses to suck it up.  They seem to love free enterprise only when they are profiting and seem determined to have taxpayers pay for any losses.
