Danielle Smith put a $400 billion price tag on Alberta freedom.
Keith Wilson’s response?
“Patent nonsense.”
He says the costs have already been studied, the federal functions are known, and Albertans should not be scared off by inflated political numbers.
@RobertL63444839@Martyupnorth Robert thank you for being kind in your speech and questions. I have met many People from Ontario who moved here and have actually apologized because they said they had no clue what Ottawa has done to us. There is no fixing it because they dont want to.
Ottawa plans to spend $93 billion a year on a Universal Basic Income while the country sinks deeper into debt and inflation.
Canada is walking the same road that led Venezuela to ruin.
Alberta must separate to protect our wealth, resources, and way of life.
You selfish sell-out.
You say nothing during a decade of Liberal destruction and then when you finally speak up this is what you have to say?
You sold Canada out to China. FIPA was indefensible and treasonous. So was Nexen. I didn’t complain retroactively. I complained then, because no honest person who looked at those agreements could excuse either one. If anything is proof of a uniparty, it’s those two deals.
FIPA is a 31-year agreement that requires 15 years’ notice to opt out of. It allows Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) to sue the Canadian government in secret tribunals if domestic laws negatively impact their profits.
There was also a secret customs agreement with China. Why? Why would a supposed small-c conservative make a secret customs agreement with a totalitarian Chi-Com regime? What has happened under this agreement?
Offshoring our manufacturing sector to China, to the tune of billions, without factoring in future earnings and making us beholden to them so Canadians can buy cheaply made $10 t-shirts and other junk, was not patriotic. Protectionism is a core pillar of conservative philosophy, particularly as a means of building national strength and industrial independence. You did the opposite.
You shipped our manufacturing to China and let the Chinese buy our resources.
You also signed us onto the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals. So you withdrew from Kyoto, but signed us onto something far worse, while quietly building protection mechanisms for Chinese Communists to operate in Canada. I didn’t even know about Agenda 2030 at the time because you quietly signed us onto it before leaving office.
It could not have been more obvious at the time that the CBC needed to be defunded. It was the primary mechanism of keeping Canadian minds brainwashed. “They will complain about us even more if we defund them,” when they already lied about Conservatives all day and for decades, was a loser strategy that cemented Liberal hegemony. You didn’t defund the CBC or the legacy media that to this day, keep the Liberals in power.
You could have installed Conservative judges. You didn’t.
And now, after saying nothing for a decade while Canada has been systematically dismantled and destroyed, you suddenly pop up calling for unity? When the Alberta separation movement actually has legs and Canadians are finally waking up to the realities of mass immigration and the treason of our managerial regime?
The people you want me to make unity with are trying to bankrupt me, starve me, seize my assets, and force me to take deadly injections. They are replacing Canadians with foreigners and they wish to throw me in jail for expressing the words in my mouth and the thoughts in my brain. They want me to rot in jail for documenting foreign radicals on our streets.
They are letting deranged male perverts into female spaces with little girls, unattended. They are turning vulnerable, mentally ill children with multiple comorbidities into Pharma dependents for life, with chopped-off organs and Frankenstein bodies. They provide euthanasia to hopeless young people. They recently murdered a woman who didn't want to die because her husband found her an inconvenience. They permit late-term abortions, of innocent full-term babies, and are training more doctors to perform them in Canada. They give foreigners a slap on the wrist for murdering Canadians with trucks. They are letting rapists out on bail.
You want people like this running our country? You want unity with them? You want me to make nice with them? Why?
Once a Liberal, always a Liberal.
I regret supporting you.
Look, Alberta, you're in a deeply abusive relationship with Ottawa. They control our finances, slap us with endless equalization payments, restrict our main industry every chance they get, impose policies with don't agree with, and treat us like an ATM that also has to apologize for existing.
But hey... divorce is expensive. You'd have to get your own apartment (sovereignty), pay your own bills (debt share, military, borders, pensions), and figure out groceries (replacing federal programs).
That's like $200 billion upfront (i.e first 3-5 years) and $25 billion a year after that. Call it $40,000 per Albertan just to stop the beatings! We'll send that to Quebec in the next 5 years.
The alternative?? You're miserable, disrespected, and getting robbed blind every year... but at least you have a roof over your head (sort of) and you know the devil you know.
Is it really better to just keep quiet, take the abuse, and hope they occasionally throw you a few scraps instead of having to adult on your own?
Brett, Premier Smith, Kenney, Nenshi and so many others want you to belive that staying in a toxic relationship is the fiscally responsible choice.
"World-class morons for even thinking about leaving. Except my buddy Keith." Thanks Brett.
P.S. Alberta's GDP would immediately make it a G30 country.
P.P.S. There are 50+ smaller countries around the World that manage all this already. Think Ireland, Sweden, Norway, Israel, Thailand. We can do this.
🚨 Young Canadian just dropped a brutal truth bomb on Mark Carney and the Liberals.
The exact demographic that got them elected — seniors over 50 — is now getting screwed:
• Cutting Old Age Security (OAS)
• Cutting funding for senior citizens’ homes
• Cooking the books by putting CPP on the government balance sheet like it’s their money (it’s NOT — it belongs to Canadians)
Same week? They announce another couple hundred million to Ukraine… while Ukraine builds a **billion-dollar ski resort** for tourism.
Your tax dollars are funding luxury infrastructure abroad while Canadian seniors get the knife and new home builds tank at home.
This is what “thank you for electing us” looks like from Carney and the Liberals.
Seniors who voted Liberal… still feeling the love? Or are you done?
Drop a 🔥 if you’re sick of Canada Last politics.
#MarkCarney #LiberalBetrayal #OAS #SeniorCuts #CanadaFirst #UkraineAid #cdnpoli #CarneyHypocrisy
So, I have run professional organizations with budgets in the hundreds of million dollars with thousands of employees....and you really think I can't manage a government department?
Have your read the Value of Freedom? I was principal author.....can you challenge its conclusions? Are you capable of writing a factual rebuttal?
We're developing a transition plans via a team of experts in their respective fields - do you really think that we aren't able to do such a thing?
That we're somehow not "up to the challenge"?
The very people who run the businesses who pay the taxes that employed you are the ones who are most disgusted with the state of things in Alberta.
And the citizens who once elected you are the ones collecting signatures and pursing campaigns.
You really think we can't progress an independent Alberta?
Do you have so little respect for citizens?
@jkenney You forgot that Albertans hold interest in all the federal parks etc across Canada we will allow you to keep our portion in exchange for ours. Peace
