I thought Edmonton (AB) was the land of milk and honey?
Oil money not being used for infrastructure?
Lol. Not when your province is blowing it on other stuff. Not when your province also gave the oil companies too much discounts on the Royalty. Oil companies always cry foul even though they are making money hand over fist.
And not when your city is too focused on building and arena for millionaire hockey players with a billionaire owner. Sure, they say the hockey arena will only cost half a billion. What they are missing is that it will cost another half a billion later when they realize they haven't allowed for the necessary transportation infrastructure (whether it be light rail train, buses, roads, etc).
I imagine with all the floods in Southern Alberta, the provincial money is going to get tighter.
