Dave Bradley joins the show to tell us all about Bitcoin in Calgary, Alberta, including the Bitcoin Rodeo conference coming up in July, plus much more! 

Key Takeaways:
🔹Bitcoin Brains was one of the first physical Bitcoin stores in Canada, and Dave Bradley played a significant role in building the Bitcoin community in Calgary.
🔹The political climate in Canada, particularly the divide between Western Canada and the federal government, has led to frustration and a sense of being ignored by the government.
🔹The diversity and cultural differences within Canada, particularly between provinces, contribute to the challenges of governance and decision-making at the federal level. There has been a significant transfer of wealth from Western Canada to Eastern Canada over the last 30 years, with Alberta being the most affected province.
🔹The rise of woke culture in Canada has led to a shift in political dynamics and a growing dissatisfaction with the current government.
🔹Bitcoin has the potential to play a significant role in Alberta's future, with the possibility of putting Bitcoin on the province's balance sheet and leveraging its energy industry for Bitcoin mining.
🔹Bitcoin aligns incentives and allows individuals to act in their own self-interest while benefiting the greater good.
🔹The Bitcoin Rodeo conference is in Calgary on July 2-3, just before Stampede - use code FREEDOM for a discount!
