There are many things I miss about Alberta. This isn’t one of them.
Where are you now, and which things do you miss?
Southern Ontario, and as a top 5, I miss the thunderstorms, the easy access to nature and the beauty of its expansive landscapes, how quickly road work gets done (working at night? more than 1 hour a week? you’d think these guys don’t even have a union or something…) the privatized government registry system and the general efficiency and lack of bureaucracy, and the best damn drinking water in the world.
TIL a few things, thanks.
No storms in particular surprises me. Doesn’t stuff come off the lakes?
Might just be a local thing, but not really where I live. We see them off in the distance regularly, but like you said, mostly over the lakes and typically late in the evening or at night. Maybe it’s just a timing thing, or maybe it’s just the unobstructed horizon in Alberta, but I used to go out to Nose Hill in Calgary and watch huge storms what felt like every week or two. Here, I’ve enjoyed a few but subjectively feels like not nearly as many, nor as good a show.
Steak. God damn I miss a good steak. Nova Scotia.
Interesting that nobody’s shipping it that far. Internal barriers maybe? I’ve definitely seen Alberta beef advertised in Vancouver.
I saw one that was for HVAC , said something like is your air system f*cked, try our duct.
Hah funny over a beer with the buddies, but immediately cuts you out of gaining any larger professional contracts with that slogan.
Not in Alberta it doesn’t.

They missed the opportunity to swap the inside taillight with the reverse light.
