This is telling. The UCP will say that super majorities of Albertans support a new pipeline to the coast, which is almost certainly true. But if you ask them if the public should pay for it (which is what the latest deal envisions) you get a very different answer.

@GrandpaKen05 Simply changing the rules around GST rebate and other federal benefits so those most in need, but who often do not file a tax return, now get those benefits, shows that PMMC is indeed looking after Canadians.
The turning point is here. Now is the time to lift every remaining restriction on support for Ukraine and help turn momentum into victory.

"Scotland is blessed with an abundance of renewable sources, and we don’t require nuclear."
The Scottish Government said: "Scotland does not need dangerous, extortionate nuclear white elephants built in our communities against our will. The Scottish Parliament has already passed an SNP motion demanding that power over our energy resources be fully devolved to Holyrood."

Recent polling shows 61% of Albertans oppose using taxpayer dollars to fund a new oil pipeline. 📊🚨
So why are gov’ts committing tens of billions of public $ to a project private investors aren’t willing to back? #abpoli#cdnpoli

@politicalham@ABDanielleSmith@Dave_Eby@MarkJCarney I want to believe PMMC is right on this, and that taxpayers will not be on the hook for a $40 Billion white elephant and stranded asset, but my head is saying this is a very unwise move.
@AndieWinnipeg Wage gap can be a cherry-picking exercise. Is this reporting the income disparity overall between men and women? Does it report wages for males vs females in the same job? The details matter.
Global warming has happened before and led to mas extinction.
Modern global warming, supercharged by the oil industry, is happening 35 times faster than any other warming period.
This is a #ClimateEmergency.
@politicalham@MarkJCarney@PierrePoilievre PP is an ignorant buffoon. A sower of misinformation and division. A tick sucking Canada’s lifeblood while spitting poison. Pestilence made flesh. That’s why he likes DJT and thinks he can work with the Orange Blob. Kindred spirits. Birds of a feather.
@DrNeilStone But, but, bit, but,…Bill from the internet, Bill in the MAGA hat, graduate of Red Creek Primary school, assistant clerk at the Red Creek Gas N Go, says all them vackinatiuns ain’t safe. Who to believe?
@BissonnetteRene I question this poll. Global news is not know as an impartial news source. Not by a long shot. When looking at any poll, first ask who paid for the poll. That often reveals the motive behind the “results”.
No private proponent? That signals: no business case.
So why are CDN taxpayers taking on the risk? #WestCoastPipeline#abpoli#cdnpoli
Our oil and gas expert explains on @Bloomberg 🎙️👇
Building an oil pipeline today means betting on decades of future demand.
But global oil demand is expected to plateau soon, as countries around the world accelerate their #CleanEnergy transitions.
There’s a reason why the private sector isn’t paying for this. #cdnpoli
