Train

Alberta’s high-tech infrastructure has a good start with the Alberta high speed communications super-net. Alberta, other than new schools and hospitals needs the framework or backbone of roads and rail to be expanded and as high-tech as the super-net to fuel Alberta’s future prosperity.

During the cold war in the Soviet Union you heard of stories where grain crops rotted in the fields because there was not a sufficient infrastructure system to get their product to market. The Soviet military had to pitch in to transport grain to the cities. This must have been embarrassing for them; however Alberta is going down the same road unless something is done about the outdated hydrocarbon transport system.

New rail and pipeline systems need to be built now. Alberta needs a leader to recognize this problem and address it.
See “Alberta’s high-tech infrastructure” plan detailed below.

There is an easy solution to the energy producing global warming dilemma, the answer has been around for over fifty years and is cost effective, reliable, green and not dependent on unstable foreign countries. Other than saving the planet, Clean Coal technology is the responsible and economically smart way to proceed. This technology has many benefits and minimal downfalls as compared to renewable, bio-fuels and nuclear energy creation sources.
