Alberta should lead in GDP growth for next 2 years, TD forecasts

Fucking NDP.

And, is it me or is that building in the right side leaning to the left?

All the buildings in the right, lean left... all the buildings in the left, lean right... only the one in the middle looks OK.


Perspective.

Yea, I wondered if it might be a lens effect from a wide angle or fisheye lens or not.

After a long day of staring at lots of numbers in small fonts, I can't always trust my old peepers.

When you look at train tracks, the distance between the rails appears shorter and shorter the farther away you look. When you look at two buildings that face each other, the distance between the buildings appears shorter and shorter the higher up you look. No lens effect required.

I understand perspective, just in this photo:



I was looking at 'straight' up and down from the man in the blue shirt, and comparing it to the straight line of the building over his shoulder. They didn't match.

With a wide angle lens, I know you can get barrel distortion. I just wondered if anyone else saw it, or if my eyes were lying to me.

You can perspective all you like.

Doesn't speak much for the rest of the country.

Gonna take two years for the Arab supply glut to be used up. And it won't be until the middle of the next decade before US shale oil starts to decline. Looking at probably two terms of Clinton, who's already said she won't allow Keystone, as well as a growing anti-pipeline mentality inside the US to match the moronic one in Canada and there's no reason to believe that exports to America from the oil sands are going to increase for at least ten more years.

That's the death knell right there for anyone in this industry above the age of forty. There will be no recovery for them and the replacement generation of workers certainly won't be flocking to geology or trade classes for future employment. Alberta is fucked, permanently. There will be NO recovery.

As Kid Rock so aptly said, time for Alberta to give the next generation of Canadians the big FUCK YOU!
