Alberta alienation seems as old as Alberta itself. It has become a touchstone and a trope of Canadian politics. But what does that alienation spring from? And how has it changed over the last hundred years. In Part Three of Alberta Unbound, host Paula Simons discusses Alberta struggles and Alberta stereotypes with panelists Dr. Jared Wesley, a professor of political science from the University of Alberta; Shannon Stubbs, the Conservative MP for the riding of Lakeland, northeast of Edmonton; Dr. Diana Steinhauer, the president of Yellowhead Tribal College; acclaimed journalist Omar Mouallem, and author and former Alberta cabinet minister Doug Griffiths.
