Brilliant! At one point Premier Stelmach tried to negotiate royalties with the O&G. They threatened to leave and he caved.

A lack of Education and misguided hate

Great video analysis. Had to laugh about BC. Had a guy in BC telling me that Manitoba was not in western Canada. I asked him who appointed him gatekeeper of western identity. But, hint, you want to be noticed: elect some representation that sits at the governing table and bring your ideas.

I mean, if the premise is "we'll only listen to you if you vote for us", that's not gonna turn anything around

I do like the idea of the NDP championing nationalization of resources.

Sorry, didn't mean it to sound that way. I look at the political map and we have a blue west and a red east. I am trying to formulate a strategy to get a couple of "blue" moderates with some good ideas running as liberals. Stealth politics.

The equalization program, if anything.

Why do you think Smith wants a provincial police force? She wants the Canadian influence out. But she does not have a massive majority, and I do not believe that the majority of Albertans want to split from Canada. Not even close.

Too many rural seats and not enough Urban ones. The population is not represented. 40 years of gaslighting by American media. Alberta thinking they are the "west". SO many reasons...

Great video!

🚨 #UCP MLAs want a referendum on breaking up Canada.
🧨 This isn't leadership. It's political arson
😡 It's betrayal dressed as bravado
📉 It's a reckless distraction
Albertans want solutions, not a separatist fantasy crafted to please extremists. We see you. We won’t forget

And the repeated delusion that political leaders control the world oil price. We budgeted $72 and it’s $52 a barrel? If we ever do get a different party in to see the books it will be horrifying, if we get that chance before bankruptcy.

This is great video, a must watch. The people of Alberta and Saskatchewan don't benefit from their natural resources. The blame lands on the federal government. Steve explains why they need a national resource company, a publicly managed resource company that benefits residents, not corporations.
