Value shmalue. You can have it. Fuck off to Alberta and stay there if it's so valuable.
I live in "the country". My next door neighbour is a potato field. But my office in the heart of downtown is only a 20 minute drive away (at rush hour). Everywhere here is close to the shore. The large majority of my diet is locally produced--fruit, vegetables, meat, seafood, even snack food. The farmer's markets here are typically as cheap or cheaper than the big grocery chains (for certain staples).
We have a thriving
arts scene,
amazing artisans and
innovators, and I could go on.
That's what I value. So yeah, speaking for myself, exactly. And fuck Danielle Smith, the filthy whore.
