This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Hi. Am Canadian, am originally from Alberta, love everyone except fucking fascists, and can confirm Alberta is currently Canada's stanky armpit and has been so for some time.

Well, it's an armpit with gorgeous parks. You've got Banff, Jasper, and part of Glacier, that's pretty awesome!

Oh, is that where all that smoke has been coming from? I thought it was somewhere in BC... We're getting a bunch of smoke down here in the US (all the way from Glacier down to me in Utah).

I think between here and BC we are always on fire somewhere these days.

SMOKE is now a normal weather condition.......

Fair. The armpittines is due to a small percentage of really weird people and their propensity to be simultaneously ignorant and outspoken. Sad that they affect policy and people's lives.

The place itself is breathtaking. Though in fairness, I've moved from there to Vancouver Island and it's kind of been eclipsed by a few orders of magnitude.

Same in America unfortunately. I love camping but there are always confederate flags when driving to the state parks.

Eh, most of those are just idiots who tend to keep to themselves anyway. Just ignore it and consider filling up gas/electricity in one of the larger cities in the region.

But yeah, plenty of rednecks throughout the rural areas...

Yeah, I'm just a little worried being alone with my daughter. My passing rate is maybe over 50%.
