A Bassano woman is using Facebook to defend what she calls the "Alberta way of life".

In response to a series of anti-Alberta campaign targeting the Calgary Stampede and the oilsands, Tayla Fraser started a group on the social networking site. She's selling bumper stickers that read "Eat Cow. Drill oil. Rope calves. Welcome to Alberta."

So far she's sold 200 of the stickers. She tells 660News the response has been fantastic and her main challenge is to keep up with demand.

As of Tuesday evening, the Facebook group had 1,600 members.
