[can.general] WEM

  In answer to your question: Yes.  All the advertizing you hear about
  the WEM is true. We here in B.C. are constantly bombarded with news
  clips, ads and travel info concerning the WEM. I have also seen ads
  for it while travelling in the states. I have been there, it is big.
  But as usual it is as much hype as substance.  For all the stores
  etc. there isn't really anything there that you can't find else
  where. I will admit I did enjoy the killer water slides and the
  indoor ocean.

  As an interesting side comment, I once saw a cartoon in an editorial
  of a newspaper (can't remember which one) showing a picture of what
  one would consider the most outstanding feature of each of the four
  western provinces. For B.C. they showed mountains and the ocean, for
  Sask. they showed wheat fields, for Man. they showed lakes, and for
  Alta. they showed the WEM.
