October, November, December, January, February, March. That's 6. They'll also almost surely have one more big dump of snow in either April or May, or both. Won't last for longer than a few days, but it comes. They're already the primary driver of our economy. Alberta is basically...

But wouldn't the hyperinflationary collapse be more severe? Essentially, they'd just be in the same spot as they were pre-printing, but now they'd be even deeper in debt. I suppose, considering their self-interests, that they'd want to do whatever it takes to earn votes/confidence NOW...
