@nenshi Remember when you cancelled the hospital expansion In red deer? Lagging our healthcare spending behind other communities by a factor of 10… can’t risk the health of my family by the NDP doing that again.

@MarkJCarney Pride flag is a symbol of oppression and ideological intolerance. It represents the belief that your greed and entitlement grant you the right to take from others. It is the newest symbol of the communist religion. With an open acceptance of pedophiles.

@IAMSMRT1 @gilmcgowan I mean “gerry mander” was a Democrat

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nithyavraman Look at the ratio on this fraudsters post.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi its funny... all you do is "online grift"

Now I have seen lots of "foreign accounts" really just paid bots, they have all been pro NDP

@JeromyYYC You are against Democracy? You are against the right of the people to be heard? That is a weird flex unless you are a Fascist...

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@coreyhoganyyc Yes it is uncertain... But by the numbers, it appears more certain than the future of Canada. And the far left extremist government is financially destroying Canada making the numbers worse every year.

Here is my response to a recent post claiming 5 reason why Alberta can’t be independent…

1. Landlocked. “Right now Canada guarantees pipelines”

I can’t believe after the last 20 year to you feel you can say that.

As an independent country, Alberta, through the UN law of the sea, is guaranteed access to tide water through negotiations with neighbouring countries. The US is no issue as 87%of Alberta’s trade goes south anyway, but yes we would have to negotiate with Canada. As in all negotiations a win win is the best outcome. If Canada does not want to allow our pipelines, you must remember that the port of Vancouver is connected to the rest of Canada by two rail lines and three major highways that now go through the independent Republic of Alberta. All of those pesky load permits, inspections, delays, quarantines, loss, theft etc would be a shame. Again, let’s ai m for a win win negotiation.

2. Economy, yes there would be a temporary downturn due to uncertainty but once we scrap the carbon pricing, do more to lower taxes for businesses and unleashed our innovation we will thrive.

3. Debt. Yes we will take on our portion of federal debt, about $120 billion depending on whose estimate we use, just as we will take our portion of the CPP. Currently Alberta sends $68 billion to Ottawa in the form of personal and corporate income taxes and GST. That is $68 billion we now get to put to work paying for the Federal services we have to backfill and go against the $120 billion Canadian debt. Realistically we could pay it off in ten years. When will your portion of Canada’s debt be paid for??

4. Oil harder to sell. As mentioned earlier about 87% of our trade goes north south and oil and gas only make up about 22% of Alberta’s GDP. Nations around the world negotiate trade deals every day. Alberta will not be breaking new ground by negotiating trade deals with whom we please.

5. Higher cost of services. Possibly a bit but our taxes would go down as we no longer send $68 billion to Ottawa. Alberta already has an attractive business environment and it will be even more so once independent because it is not only citizens that no longer have to pay Ottawa income taxes but business as well will no longer have to pay federal taxes. Ask any business if they would prefer not to collect GST for Ottawa.

6. A few bonus statistics for you…

If Alberta were an independent country, it would…
• have more land mass than 70% of all other nations.
• have more farmland than about 85% of all other nations.
• have a population larger than 45% of all other nations.
• have more resources than 95% of all other nations.
• have a nominal GDP larger than 82% of all other nations.
• have a larger GDP per capita than 90% of all other nations.
• have a lower crime rate than 70% of all other nations.
• have a higher education level than 85% of all other nations.
• be more diverse than 70% of all other nations.

We would be a powerhouse!
We are no longer content with being serfs in a system of systemic discrimination.

@ulfreakSV @nenshi It was there, but we all thought the east had come to the table and we could make one last try at saving Canada as a whole. Unfortunately at the same time Harper was elected some CINO's were elected in the west.

Separation is how we save Canada.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi you are a monster 😢and a 🤡

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@Doubletapp187 @KenBoessenkool @TravisToewsAB @jfdinning @PGarritty @trevortombe @andrew_leach @jengerson @DrJaredWesley I've done this many times but briefly:
- Cultural differences independence vs. collectivism.
- The financial argument, government bloat, transfer payments, government waste.
- the unequal representation 136k Albertans for a seat, 36k PEI'ers for a seat.
- the senate

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@wealthmoose I do not agree.

He has, as is the leftist pattern, used his time in office to strip wealth, buy future influence and enrich acquaintances.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi and you are a corrupt communist... try to put out some policy instead of rapid fire attack chasing.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@JeffreyRWRath @just_afellow please just focus on separation. every time you angle to replace Danielle smith you muddy up the separatist movement.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi Yes government employees are over paid after decades of leftist policies. Alberta is one of the more reasonable justifications.

Let’s index these all to the median Albertan income. And remove all the “elective “ salary bumps. your good with a wage cut right @nenshi

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi Aren’t you a globalist?

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@Sassafrass_84 If I have to save one probably Aoc I think she is too dumb to cause lasting harm

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@EliteMan091 Probably Biden his senelity and old age men he has done the harm he can do. If you save him old age will kill him off in a few years.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@nenshi You only fight for your own power and greed you have zero intention of dialogue, compromise, or even basic honesty.

[Adam Hawkings (Tormack) @ATormack]

@redsnoopy69 I mean it’s clearly the best province in Canada by almost every metric.

The one I think is most telling is the inter provincial migration numbers
