That's a difficult one, because Medicine Hat is so completely unique. This is what I talk about all the time across the country. The first question I ask when I'm speaking to other politicians is whether their city owns an oil company, a gas distribution company, an electric generation company, or a land and property development company. The answer is no.
Sometimes I find when I'm speaking with other politicians and people across the country that we have nothing in common. I'm sorry to say that, but frankly, we are unique here. I talk to other mayors and they're dealing with needles in their parks—that's their biggest issue—or skyrocketing crime rates, whereas I'm talking about the price of oil.
I have a difficult time, but really I think the only thing we can say as a city to other municipalities is that it can be done and hoped for and to make it easier to access.
