This morning CBC radio confirmed the passed motion in the Edmonton legislature that Rodeo is well on its way to being Alberta's official sport. My animal complaints aside, it irritates me that white male-dominated rodeo is officially the sport of this fine and balanced province. Women's participation is limited to barrel racing, flag bearing and, oh yeah, being pretty. Miss rodeo, anyone? Ah, rodeo beauty pageants. Cowboy inspiration.
