Alberta Future :)

Alberta has what, 5 Billion Dollars in surplus this term ? Immagine what you could do with that kind of money....

* Put 1 Billion Dollars into an Alberta Education Fund - That would build more schools,
better curriculums in existing schools and upgrade technologies in the existing schools :)
New textbooks, computers, and younger modern trained teachers :)

Montessore schools and Waldorf schools could be the norm instead of the old ineffective and out dated school systems :)

* Alberta could set aside 1 Billion dollars to modernize the transportation industry ! :)
Our Railway systems are a hundred years out of date ! We could be at the cutting edge of magnetic levitation bullet trains technologies...

and

we could be using monorail systems in the citties. Immagine the ability to commute from Calgary to Edmonton to work on a mag-lev train that travels 500 Kmph. Or being able to take a silent monorail from your residential home "buss stop" right to the 3rd floor of your office building :)

No grafitti and no CTrains blocking traffic :) as these monorails would abe like at Disneyland up on pillars that give a platform above the traffic level. And they are quieter than a bus :)

* We could put 1 Billion dollars towards citty planning :)
Immagine building up AND down instead of spreading out :)

Thats right, underground Malls and parking lots and even hotell suits that are underground. Hey if you are just sleeping than what do you need a window for :)

And a mall parking lot that is on the serface and the mall below the surface would save a lot of space.... You arnt looking at the windows in a mall anyway :)

* Immagine if we set aside 1 Billion dollars into Building more and better hospitals around the citty areas or better yet put it to health Care ! Thats right make Nutrition, Chiropractic, Massage, and Traditional Chinese Medicine part of the "Free Health Care System" so we can actually have Health Care and not disease care...

* And Just Immagine if we put ! Billion dollars into the Environment !

Egsample - Most refrigerators and other coolant systems take water from the air. In the average Restaraunt Kitchen thousands of gallons of fresh water get pulled out of the air by the freeon system. It condenses and little copper pipes drain the water away into the sewage.

SO - we put water filters on said pipes and we have fresh drinking water - California never need go thirsty again, and neither would Los Vegas or NY.

Most Air conditioners can be equiped like this and give of nice little amounts of fresh water as well :)
