Alberta NDP leader, Naheed Nenshi @nenshi, says we need to threaten the U.S. with an export tax on Alberta’s oil and gas to create leverage in trade negotiations with the Americans.
An export tax on Alberta oil to the U.S. would literally put over hundred thousand Albertans out of work almost overnight and decimate our economy across the board - not to mention the probable US retaliation of cutting off Line 5 fuel to Ontario and Quebec.
It would be like punching ourselves in the face.
Unlike the Nenshi NDP, I will protect Albertans’ jobs and livelihoods.
So let me be clear: an export tax on Alberta oil and gas or the halting of supply to the U.S. is not going to happen…period. Full stop. It’s not on the table nor will it be on the table in the future.
I will continue with the diplomatic approach that has resulted in 97% of Alberta exports remaining tariff free, and continue to work with the many and growing number of elected U.S. officials and other allies that are working diligently to end the tariff dispute between our two great nations.

Good Morning Alberta!!!
Pathways est. cost $25B
Budget overspend: guaranteed
Projected cost: $45B
Cost to taxpayers: $35B
Rate of return to taxpayers: 0%
All for a Carney pet project.
No other oil producing country is stupid enough to invest in anything similar.
It’s time.
Spending billions of dollars to pump air into the ground will stop forest fires caused by climate change. In 2026 , third consecutive year of cooler temperatures and increased rainfall. 🤔
Bookmark my post. No major national-scale project is getting built in Canada.
We've created a 2-tier society, where one group has the veto to stop all progress.
A group with no written history that was still living in the stone age a mere 500 years ago. A group almost entirely dependent on others to take care of them.
That group now controls the country. Let that sink in.
OH NO!
First Roger’s.
Now Corus.
Soon we won’t have anyone to regurgitate post national talking points & we’ll have to rely on Western based Independent Media for our news.
Well…THAT and THIS.
WE are the media now.
“THOSE people” won’t be missed.

If a violent or repeat offender commits a crime, they should have to prove to the court why they can be released on bail.
We introduced the Bail and Sentencing Reform Act to make that the law in Canada — to make your communities safer.
Today it comes into force.
Forest fires are destroying Northern Ontario forests after our government spent all spring spraying the forests with glyphosate. When will this practice end? Its does nothing but cause damage to our forests and its wildlife habitats.
Glyphosate is also extremely flammable. Almost like they are purposely sabotaging our forests!
THE SCENE IN NORTHERN ONTARIO TODAY!!
Imagine spraying flammable glysophate over the boreal forest would make the province go up in flames??
WELL FUCK, WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THAT ONE COMING??
🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴
