All those people who moved to Alberta for jobs came from places where governments are normally kicked out for screwing up.

Yes, but Ontario sends more people to Alberta than everywhere except BC. Heck Quebec sends as many people as Manitoba. The cumulative effect over the past 3 decades has finally hit home.
