Trying to be moderate in the hyper sensitive twitter verse. Chill, we are probably more alike than different.

@TomPark1n For a tourist say from Mexico visiting Toronto, do they understand strange animals perhaps they haven't heard of or say exit 3 so that they can safely navigate and see some universal familiarity in your "world class" city?

@JohnWKowal1 Vibes > Policy

It's as if the boomer cohort is motivated to vote by the same feels the under 30 cohort uses.

@LukewSavage The top 10% of income earners pays about 54% of the total amount of personal taxes collected in Canada. The top 1% about 23% of the total
L.

The bottom 50% pay about 10% of the total.

We already have a wealth tax, and you can disagree with people (or learn) w/o being a dick.

@jengerson I really have to say I dislike the combated Gerson. All of your credibility was providing rational and alternative reporting.

Your position - and passion - this issue is personal for you and is activist journalism as you are leading people to form an opinion projected by you.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@Prominent_Bryan Why does a difference or context matter?

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@kinsellawarren Yeah, he'll get more attention for his message and stunt.

Interesting he didn't cross to the greens... Always politics - never goes both ways....

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@TheAnnaMurphy When do we start focusing on the future in Canada?

There is no honour in subverting a nation to another nation not because of negotiation but guilt for actions we are generations removed from.

A one sided conversation is suppression, not reconciliation.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@jec79 Why not ask the obvious question then?

Still no proponent... Why?!?

That is the conversation starting point.

There should be dozens for options should the CDN government feel them worthy - the economics make sense, it's a govt issue at this point of the convo if you're honest.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@garymasonglobe An old saying... You can't complain if you don't vote.

Last I checked residents of Alberta participate in elections that form govt's in Ottawa and Alberta.

If you are outside of Alberta you didn't participate in the election and should not opine.

Same as the USA & Trump. STFU

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@MPelletierCIO @leasecocre Confidence is just doing something enough times that you know what is going to happen (experience).

Lack of confidence is an excuse for getting started.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@PatrickBrethour You spelt *Alberta tax payers* wrong - it is disingenuous to state that we shouldn't complain b/c we earn more on average when the federal govt plundered the revenue and legislates against expansion or incentivizing bigger incomes, increased tax revenue and more tax payers.

DUMB

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@GlobalCalgary @boehmerB Alberta's daily output is 4.1 million b/day.

$0.50 * 4,100,000 = $2million per day in industrial carbon tax?

Do the math Global, don't just repeat a self interested advocacy group.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@KevMVickers @ExnerPirot Losers never admit when they were/are wrong.

Sadly many in power are no longer represent majority opinion regarding economic and environmental policy.

It will take a generation to see a change of guard in Ottawa.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@gregbradyx Time for Canadians to decide if our current govt is unwilling or unable to negotiate outcomes that Canadians - and the mandate that the LPC was elected to fulfill.

@thefarmersheep Have Patience

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@MarioNawfal That's a Canadian stand off.

[Dave Kissel @DKTPH]

@KenBoessenkool Can you enlighten me regarding the "importance of Industrial Caron pricing"?

Is it economically important?
To make us competitive in attracting FDI?
Environmentally important?

Context in debates are missing from CDN media and pundit conversations that form policy.

Be specific.

@jengerson Context matters here. Freeland's resignation catalyzed the events leading up to Trudeau's resignation but the final chapter in Trudeau's reign was Trumps win and the meeting at Maralago in October 2024.

That personal spite is likely still the main issue in negotiations.
