The significance to Alberta being the story in this case is context. NB and every other province worse than Alberta clearly has a problem they need to deal with, however Alberta has a substantially larger compatibility of doing something about it but none of the desire or competence.
New Brunswick falling behind even faster than Alberta. And then you have Ontario more than doubling Alberta’s decline rate, and not a “have-not” province either, even if they’re currently at a better rate.
New Brunswick is 80% and this isn’t the story?

Seems like someone has an axe to grind.
