You're right, of course, but the takeaway from every single peak and valley in resource prices is that resource revenue is a windfall, and using it to deleverage is smart.
Some here don't see the appeal either (38% apparently). I'm not too keen on talking smack on the national level either - I remember very well the years we were a have not province and we could be back there quite easily with a couple twists in markets.
