@politicalham @MarkJCarney @ABDanielleSmith And what percentage (60 to 70%) of O&G profits actually leave Canada to pad the bank accounts of foreign owners and shareholders ..? Mark Carney may understand Economics, but perhaps not Business ... never mind the price our children will pay in the future. 😕

Well, we sang this often enough
(perhaps),
and for all its flaws
and the fools it's produced,
it is home ...
and you don't mess with our home.

@sarobertson_ Says the "Premier" who threw out the results from the legally mandated Electoral Boundary Commission in order to Gerrymander Democracy for her re-election: “We think that this decision is incorrect in law and anti-democratic, and we will be appealing it as a result.”

Huh ..?

The last thing the world needs is more wars over oil and resources.

In the face of unprecedented drug poisoning deaths, we need to get louder and more vocal in the call to save lives during this ongoing crisis. I just sent a letter to my MLA to call for urgent action—Add your voice!

@furmsies @ABDanielleSmith Indeed ... ten questions, and my consistent response to having read the lot of them (including the Wanna-be-American APP question to come):

@nenshi Thank you, Canada. 🇨🇦🫡

@RjSigurdson Suggest perhaps you watch something die from Strychnine - if only to determine whether you have any conscience whatsoever, before advocating for its use. We must be better than this ...

Reading Orwell's "1984" in High School was SUPPOSED to help us AVOID this kind of sad, scary, and ever more dangerous time ... these are the "bad guys" in the stories that raised us. Remember that!

“If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism,
it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.
This isn't life in the fast lane, it's life in the oncoming traffic.”

@GlobalCalgary Of COURSE Judges - steeped in (& bound by) centuries, if not millennia, of precedent and Constitutional structure are entitled to over-rule some short-term tentative representative of the peoples' current preference. Democracies require strong & independent Checks and Balances.

@furmsies @Alberta_UCP For the record, the NDP - during some of the worst global O&G revenue streams in history, added between $40&43Bn to Alberta debt - WHILE (unlike the UCP - even in better times), "keeping the lights on", and serving Albertans.
