Let's just add this. Ted Morton is the ROCKYVIEW representative in the Alberta legislative assembly. ROCKYVIEW is the location of most of the eastern Kananaskis, for which he has okayed the clear-cutting of 800,000 acres. We voted for him. We were wrong. And we are still asking ourselves why he has chosen to do this.
