DESCRIPTION: Is the political froth that marks Alberta politics today, just froth or is it a sign that we are into deeper trouble than our leaders seem not to understand and certainly do not acknowledge nor address, at least in public? If the latter, where is the trouble we see in Alberta leading us? Why, why now, and what does all this imply for our future? These are the issues Ruben will chew with us.
