OP is being warned to "stay away" specifically from Alberta because we're apparently not safe to be around, how am I supposed to be taking this? So far the only solid reasons that have been given are:
- Alberta produces a lot of oil.
- Someone in a small town post office didn't wear a mask while picking up a box of books related to Christianity, which I might add is far more widely practised in Canada's eastern provinces.
- Apparently "everyone" in Alberta thinks being compared to Texas is a compliment. Based on the fact that you personally didn't know anyone who thought otherwise, in your particular social bubble.
So yeah, I'm rather offended. I think OP would have a perfectly fine time coming to visit Alberta.
