Just a reminder, if you are anti-antifa that simply means you're fascist ❤️

Dave from Alberta, again our
Northern neighbours.

Before we embark on another day of fighting for the end of our Alberta Government’s black ops blackout advertising operation to ruin hockey broadcasts across the nation, a little background.

Unlike Dave from Canmore, I have done stuff. I was the Utilities Consumer Advocate for several years before the Office was neutered.

I’m an economist with 30+ years experience in electricity. I am not an engineer, but I’ve had a lot of them work for me. Some were pretty smart.

The problems we have here stem all the way back to deregulation. During the late 1990s, financial virtualization was all the rage. It led us to a bad market design.

Which was made worse by the PC Government in 2012, when they changed the rules to allow Economic Withholding.

If you understand OPEC, you understand economic withholding.

Hold back some product to drive the price WAY UP for the rest of your sales.

Our producers do this by pricing some product at the cap $1/kW.h driving up prices for the power they do sell

The NDP made an attempt to reform the market, but failed to finish. They did stop EW for a few years.

When the UCP took over, they let it right back in.

Some people think Jason Kenney is really smart.

The people like Jeff who are paying 32 cents per kW.h probably don’t think so.

Anyway, since January 1, 2021 four companies have been allowed to drive up the price FIVE TIMES HIGHER

And blackouts?

Smith was complaining that we had ten “emergencies” last year.

If you wonder how that was caused by future Federal regulations, you are not alone.

The very things that the ads warn about - blackouts and quadruple prices - have already been visited on Alberta electricity consumers.

Help us stop the psychological abuse that comes with being a sentient being in this hillbilly heaven.

Don’t believe a word Smith says on electricity.

She knows what the real problem is. She even said it - once - right after the election.

It’s economic withholding and bad market design.

It’s not Trudeau.

It’s not gas.

It’s definitely not coal.

It’s a callous and disgusting strategy to let four companies hold us all hostage.

And fuck, it makes me angry.

Time to repost something I had taken down after the election.

Thanks for helping us get the focus back on their incompetence by trashing these shitty ads, you absolute beauties.

Dave from St Albert

Appropriate (foul) language ahead.

BREAKING | Smith government announces plans to withdraw from federal income and corporate taxes

"Alberta is entitled to half of all federal taxes paid since 1905. Once we have that, we'll set up our own tax system with lower rates": Danielle Smith.

@DevinDVote Stop lying deedee

[Beth @bethjosquat]

Twitter's still a cess pit, but finding @PostMalone dad on here has made it a bit more wholesome. The apple does not fall far from the tree @rriproarin

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@CallofDuty Dmz is pretty much unplayable now. I built up a nice stash of contraband to load in with only to lose it all because of getting booted every other game. And the new plea thing sucks.

@ABDanielleSmith how can you "elevate debate" when you refuse to listen to/acknowledge Albertans who don't subscribe to your same POV??

[Ryan Jespersen @ryanjespersen]

If you're wondering why Max is tagging me in his tweet, here's the moment on #RealTalkRJ where I pitch Premier Danielle Smith on unblocking Albertans on Twitter: https://t.co/QnUXJWoYIb #abpoli

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@LailaGoodridge You are so out of touch with reality and regular people that it's actually embarassing.

[Beth @bethjosquat]

Not too sure what @ABDanielleSmith was thinking with this one but I'm sure we'll see how her MAGA but in Alberta approach is gonna unfold

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

.@AbDanielleSmith just made Alberta a more welcoming place for women.

Past President of an anti-abortion organization just became Alberta’s health minister.

For the record, the Alberta NDP has a 20-member "Council of the Elected" ready and happy to advise on the priorities of Albertans living here in Edmonton.

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@ABDanielleSmith Does "All Albertans" include the ones you and your party have blocked? #ABPoli

[Jason Scott 🇨🇦 @JasonOnTheDrums]

#Ableg Fact:

Danielle Smith’s $300,000,000 taxpayer giveaway to an O&G Billionaire HURTS!

It SHOULD pay for:

👩‍⚕️- 900 Family Doctors

👨‍⚕️- 3,420 Registered Nurses

🧑‍⚕️- 8,565 Health Care Aides

👩- 731,799 women with free IUD’s

We get NOTHING instead but wasted taxpayer money

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@Rubberbandits help me out - someone stole my Gospel book, and I'm blanking on the name of the short story with the weed farm above the chippy...I believe you read it on the pod but I'm trying to find it for a pal!

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@VoszlerJohn @FreeAlbertaRob Unsubstantiated? There's literally a source tagged. It's more like Bobby and @ABDanielleSmith are the ones making unsubstantiated claims

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@FreeAlbertaRob @ABDanielleSmith And what good is that medicine doing now, hmm? What good is it doing now the shortage is resolved and nobody has a need for the $80m worth of medicine that arrived late? Did you not anticipate that happening? Course not

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@maxfawcett Can you suggest any that I could easily access in case of emergency? Not having a credit card means I'm hesitant to lock anything away but also get mad at the piddly interest rates

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@realDaveB34 @cspotweet I'm one person. Costco is not feasible to buy everything at. I was just commenting on how little choice there is, no need to be rude.

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@realDaveB34 @cspotweet Options are slim though. I think in AB only other options are Walmart (sucks quality wise), Safeway/saveon (also expensive) or Costco.

[Beth @bethjosquat]

@ABDanielleSmith @RachelNotley Ok but how many left?
