Closer to Texas. Lots of oil money.

Presumably a lot fewer heavily armed bigots chomping at the bit for a civil war, though.

Back in university, my friends and I played this game called “Alberta or Kentucky,” where we send each other images had to guess…well, whether they were from Alberta or Kentucky. (Eventually this became more like “American or not.”) My favourite one was an image of a shirtless man standing in front of a trailer with a rifle in each hand and a Confederate flag painted on his chest. IIRC he was from Quebec.

Alberta is like Montana but with Texas oil money.

You should visit if you get a chance, its beautiful and does the American West better than the American West.

Closer to Texas, we have oil and cows and farms mostly.
