And of course we had our own James Keegstra.
Coincidentally, when I resided in Red Deer around 2005-06, I met a girl I dated, who moved to Eckville, after her divorce was finalized. I jokingly told her "don't mention anything about Jim Keegstra." A couple of weeks after her move, she told me that nobody in town mentions him, and it kind of a hush-hush type thing in town, as ABC did a TV movie on the Keegstra affair in the 90s, making all people in town look like rednecks. He passed away a few years ago, but people in town were not pleased with the reputation it received back in the 80s, and the negative media attention in the 90s
