Proud to be from Alberta. Views are my own.

I didnt realize when the @liberal_party said "Elbows Up" they were only directing them towards unionized workers. @cupenat @cupw

I have a lifelong friend who claims that @billyjoel performed on his cruise in April 1995 when my buddy was 16. His parents back his story. We've now made a fairly substantial wager but I can't find the proof to debunk this and win the bet. Can anyone help?

If Canada wants Alberta to stay, it's actually quite simple - just treat Alberta fairly.

Here's how Ottawa could do that:

1) Fix the House of Commons so it's proportional to population.

2) Fix the Senate, so it's elected and there are an equal number of seats per province.

3) Repeal the multiple pieces of legislation preventing pipeline and energy project construction and let the private sector get to work.

4) Get rid of the equalization program.

5) Convert transfer payments using a tax point transfer.

6) Give up the "spending power" on issues that are provincial jurisdiction.

Note that literally none of these would change things to favour Alberta, they would simply remove existing inequalities to make things fair for all provinces.

If the rest of Canada isn't willing to even consider making things fair, why should Alberta stay?

The estimated $225 Billion in new debt is closer to $500 Billion when converted to @liberal_party dollars.

With the Stanley Cup playoffs starting tomorrow, i thought it would be cool to get alumni to share pics of their cup rings. Any chance of you guys getting it started @commie22 @hockey_tr @TheoFleury14?

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

This is gold.

I’d break the record by doing the Michigan on an empty net but that’s just me

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

I thought this was timely and ironic.

@Bkrahn3Krahn @Sportsnet960 Flames win... Awesome. On TV during the Kadri goal... cool. Seeing a Krahn jersey at the game... fricking epic.

ICYMI: Alberta will defend our critical infrastructure from any and all overreach… including the federal government. Take a look 👇

@Yvan_Baker If someone says they weren't the one who moved their company to the US, they are definitely the one who moved their company to the US

@KeithOlbermann I would rip the maple leaf tattoo off my shoulder before calling Gretzky un-Canadian. He is Canada. Anyone who suggests otherwise has become politically clouded.

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

Anyone in Eastern Canada who thinks that @MarkJCarney has intentions of building a needed east/west pipeline should reach out and talk to their fellow Canadian from Alberta to hear what they have to say. We've lived this before. He won't actually say it because he won't do it

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

Can we build 2 national pipelines in 30 days? We need to create leverage that protects Canada's interests.

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

@franocavar That would be a lot of maple syrup to sell to fund our hospitals

@Google Your AI search results are way not accurate. Half of these answers are wrong

@Fan960Wills I bet it's a fun plane ride after that win.

[Brad Hugel @bradhugel]

@Fan960Wills Fricking glorious!

He also taught a generation of broadcasters at Mount Royal's broadcasting school. Calgary legend who will be missed.

@elonmusk US politicians did the same thing during the last Canadian election. Clinton and Obama endorsed Trudeau.
