Yes, once near Mannville Alberta, I can't recall the town name, maybe it was Vermillion.
I don't really have anything against the bank, it looked fine and I am sure one's money is secure these days. But, some people don't like getting into things that involve the government, that is all I was pointing out. Say, when it comes to taxes and the like, its like the government has a good idea of your net worth and your interest income, as they would in a socialist country.
Also, I know history, and yes, there was a time when Alberta was at the bottom of the financial barrel, a dustbowl. I applaud William Aberhart for the efforts he put into building Social Credit and boosting people's faith in the province at a troubled time. I think with all his good work and his focus on doing good , he did not realize he was straying at times into a socialist framework. Alkthouth that is not all bad either, like in Saskatchewan, when they adopted universal health care, as many of the farmers there had a hard time affording health care in the lean years.
