Proud Albertan, ❤️ the Oil & Gas industry, freedom lover, I believe in medical autonomy, you’ll always know where you stand with me, I swear often lol.
It doesn't matter what Carney says. His party, first nations, and provincial premiers like David Eby, won't let us build any energy infrastructure.
If Carney was serious about the MOU with Alberta, he would immediately issue an Order In Council.
Smith is getting played.... or she's in on the scam.
THE MONEY IS GONE ❗️ Liberals wasted $300,000,000 of your tax dollars on PrescribeIT, a useless digital prescription system that changed absolutely nothing. Now they are trying to sweep this massive failure under the rug. LIBERAL SCANDAL🚨
Does nobody even hear what politicians are saying anymore?
"We have taken back control of immigration"...from who?
Was anyone held accountable for letting it get out-of-control.
"We have reigned in government spending. It had been growing at 10%". Again. Was anyone held accountable? Did anyone lose their job. Did you fire any Minister?
Your party's been in power for 11 years. This is on you.
House of Commons was full of talk about forced labour yesterday.
I’d like to remind people... Mark Carney, while he was at Brookfield, was fined for slave labour conditions on a soybean farm in Brazil.
This is the craziest story I've seen.
@KerryLynneFindl Way to stand up for yourself today on @CTV_PowerPlay no doubt who pays @mikelecouteur bills. What a complete fucking Liberal moron. Thank you for standing your ground while he tried to talk over you AND re-write the narrative and your words.
Central Canadians need to pay attention and come up with solutions that work for Albertans, instead of pointing fingers and calling them and their Premier traitors to Canada. This is the first article that acknowledges how past attitudes and policies in Central Canada have led us to where we are today.
Adam Waterous Executive Chairman of Strathcona Resources "Industry has a different view that they have not seen evidence that actually buyers will pay a premium for decarbonization carbonized oil."
"...There's another party which is basically the investment community, and that they're going to be very conscious of what their investment alternatives."
"And right now, the investment alternatives for many of them look better in the United States."
As Adam points out in this interview - 🇨🇦 is the only top 10 oil producing country that has a carbon tax. Under the agreement w/ AB - the tax will increase 6x. What folly that an oil producer like Cda would do this to itself especially with the energy opp that is before us
That’s not even close to the whole story. For most of us, one, two, three, or even ten pipelines changes nothing.
When oil crashed in 2014, the industry had tens of thousands of layoffs. The province was hurting but there were signs of hope: Northern Gateway, Energy East, and TMX.
Northern Gateway had its approval cancelled by Trudeau.
Energy East was cancelled because Ottawa wanted to count upstream and downstream emissions, which put the project on shaky ground.
But the coup de grace came when Québec’s prime minister at the time, François Legault said that there was “no social acceptability for a pipeline.”
TC cancelled it shortly after.
Finally, we fought over TMX because Ottawa wouldn’t assert its jurisdiction.
Trudeau let Horgan and BC make it so risky to try to build TMX that Kinder Morgan had to pull out.
Nobody wanted the federal government to buy the pipeline, they should have simply enforced the conditions to ensure it was safe for Kinder Morgan to proceed.
Albertans had stayed quiet for a long time over equalization because Ottawa was staying out of our faces, so it was just the price to pay to operate in this country.
But when came time to help Alberta after the oil crash, the whole nation turned its back on us and proceeded to crush the three beacons of hope we were counting on to turn the corner.
That’s when a lot of us started paying closer attention to politics to figure out how to get our voices heard.
It didn’t take very long before we started looking at seats in the House of Commons and the Senate and realizing how unequal and unfair our representation is in Ottawa.
Bottom line is that we’re effectively screwed and that the people we subsidize through equalization continuously vote for governments that attack our industry.
Fixing the constitutional mess is impossible because it would require either Ontario or Québec and all the maritime provinces to vote in favour of curtailing their own political power. It will never happen.
In 2019, we figured that Canada was going to be smart enough to realize that Trudeau was a disaster and we’d get back some common sense.
Wrong. Trudeau was voted in for a second time.
If you were in the oil and gas industry at the time, you probably had your first taste of western alienation with the Wexit movement instantly polling above 30% in support of independence.
Next up is covid and that’s when all hell broke loose with the spending, the OIC to prohibit common guns, etc.
Albertans’ living standards were the most impacted by Trudeau and now Carney’s insane deficit spending.
We watched as Trudeau pranced around on the world stage, virtue-signalling with our money while the cost of living was sky rocketing.
In FY 2024-2025, we watched the Liberals send $13B abroad between gender equality and climate change foreign aid, while running a $36.3B deficit.
We had one last hope with Pierre looking like he was going to get elected and stop the bleeding. But they parachuted Carney in and the rest is history.
The country’s finances are in shambles and it would take 3 generations to fix this mess if we started today by doing the obvious, which Ottawa is still refusing to do.
Ottawa is fiscally irresponsible and now headed down a very dangerous path of authoritarianism with all the bills that were passed in this parliamentary session.
Alberta independence supporters see the writing on the wall and don’t care about any number of pipelines.
Once you’ve looked close enough at the system, you realize it can’t be fixed and there’s no coming back from realizing the true extent of the mess Canada is in.
The Canada we grew up in doesn’t exist anymore. It is a sinking ship and independence is the only way to save Alberta.
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump takes huge VICTORY LAP after the climate change "experts" at the United Nations announce they were WRONG
"GOOD RIDDANCE! After 15 years of Dumocrats promising that “Climate Change” is going to destroy the Planet, the United Nations TOP Climate Committee just admitted that its own projections (RCP8.5) were WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!"
"For far too long Climate Activism has been used by Dumocrats to scare Americans, push horrible Energy Polices, and fund BILLIONS into their bogus research programs."
"Unlike the Dumocrats, who use Climate Alarmism nonsense to push their GREEN NEW SCAM, my Administration will always be based on TRUTH, SCIENCE, and FACT! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
This was one huge FRAUD.
Never fund the green scams again! 🔥
