Among the many things I believe President Obama to be, I strongly believe he has a Robin Hood complex...in that his socialist ideals want to take from the rich (i.e. ME), and give to the poor (i.e. YOU). Obama and his "merry men" are destroying America, and they must be removed from D.C....but where to put them if Gitmo's closed? Sherwood Forest? Or perhaps somewhere that sounds similar, like the subject of our twenty-first installment of the CCC's 28-part series, Better Know A- Lberta!

Today's feature is the riding of Edmonton-Sherwood Park: the fightin' Little Johns!


The riding is home to the hamlet of Sherwood Park, which, although having a population of nearly 60,000, is still registered as a hamlet, officially the world's largest. Now, normally I shouldn't be this upset at such a quaint community, but shame on you, Sherwood Park! Clinging desperately to your unincorporated status to avoid paying taxes to Strathcona County? Seems like President Obama has been through the riding after all!

 

Sherwood Park is also home to the city of Fort Saskatchewan, of which I give a Tip O' My Hat to, for being the birthplace of Lost star and über-hottie Evangeline Lilly! Thanks are due to producer (and friend of the show) J.J. Abrams, for bringing this beauty to the masses...and for making Doug Hutchison that much more tolerable. A sexy actress, former Bible Camp counsellor, and devout Christian? When's the next Oceanic flight out of LaGuardia?

 

However, Fort Saskatchewan also gets a Wag Of My Finger, for being known (and subsequently ridiculed) worldwide for opting to avoid man-made lawn equipment, instead using a flock of 40 sheep to tend to the city's grass in the spring and summer. Hey, "Fort Sask," how about you enter the 19th century, get yourselves an American-made John Deere, and use the sheep the way God intended: for lamb chops, Christmas sweaters, and singing songs that never end!

 

And which MP has the has the mutton and haggis to oversee this provincial tax haven? Why, it's none other than Conservative MP Tim Uppal, who has served the riding since 2008. Contact MP Uppal here to lock down the forests, arrest the yeomen and pay the piper, cause Stephen's coming to town!
