    MP denies plans to 'herd' Maritimers to Alberta - By Mike Sadava, Edmonton Journal
    A Conservative MP from northern Alberta has been accused of planning to herd Maritimers across the country to help fill the labour shortage in the booming oilsands city of Fort McMurray, Alta.

    "I have never, ever said anything like herding Canadians, to force them to go to work. I said provide them the communications about what's available and give them the help to go."
