James Cameron's visit to Alberta's economic super centres has been one of the most widely-covered celebrity visits in Alberta's recent history. Most interesting is the way which individual media centres slanted Cameron's visit based on the media's views. In particular, Macleans is very harsh on Cameron's critique of the oil sands. When examined, the article shows a "this is what Cameron thinks of the oil sands, this is what the oil companies are doing to show him he's wrong, how do you like that, James Cameron?" structure, playing him off as someone who assumed one thing and is perhaps misguided in his views.

Considering this, the majority of offshore wells is on the east coast, where Conservatives have a lesser share in voter stakes than the west side of Canada.
