Andrew in Alberta

@therealmrbench I'd pick a hole in my head.

If you had to choice. Yes HAD to .... Who would you pick as Prime Minister of Canada? These are the only choices

@EnergyCynic oh yeah 100% lol. I was just trying to be balanced. I sold all my PEY and TOU a few weeks ago (PEY @ $27 and TOU at $68) and piled everything I have into ATH, SCR and CJ. I held WCP and CNQ.

@AndrewInAlberta I don’t disagree with elements of this but isn’t it just an argument to buy a liquids name

I’ve owned Tourmaline for 6 years and have always loved the company. But thinking if trimming my position hard. Can anyone talk me out of it? $TOU.TO

This will not age well.

Supposedly Carney made Miss Piggy delete this but unfortunately for him this clip will live forever. Repost and quote and share and make this motherfucker go viral 🤣🤣🤣☠️

@MissE_515 @AndrewInAlberta @sazu_samalox Trop juif? Qu'entends tu par là ?

так странно видеть, что иностранцы в твиттере, как оказалось, не ненавидят русских. чувствую себя как человек, которого впервые в жизни обняли, а не избили

@ExnerPirot More than $1T? That's almost $2T!

New RBC report: between 2015-2024, more than $1 trillion in investment exited Canada—the largest capital exodus in Canadian history. Six sectors where Canada can attract back investment: Oil and gas ➡️  $705 billion Electricity ➡️ $635 billion  Mining ➡️ $200 billion Agriculture and food processing ➡️ $205 billion  Defence and space ➡️ $30 billion Read the full report here: lnkd.in/e3gbwvKk

@fillpackart What is the best brand of Vodka? And what is the best brand for the cheapest price?

Кто-то должен был это сказать. У водки НЕТ ВКУСА. Её никто не любит за вкус. У виски, коньяка, джина, текилы, рома — вкус есть. А водка это считай спирт с водой. Не бывает вкусной или хорошей водки. Бывает хуёвая, и обычная. Когда ты пьёшь водку, ты абсолютно честен с собой

Ok who did this? 🤣

@Smileyyeg That's a low bar. Mine is much higher. Though I respect that list and suggest that there are lots of people who also have a pretty low bar, too. Throw us a frickin bone and watch how fast the movement fades.

I would cease in my support for separation if: - Floor crossing requires a byelection. - Liberals abandon their pursuit of the disallowance of the NTWSC, and make a strong statement in support of its fundamentality to the constitution. - Attempts to censor SM are abandoned.

@AndreasSteno @IfindRetards found one

Oil is simply less relevant for the economy than it once was..

@DMRuth4 @Smileyyeg Agreed. I voted for Leslyn in the CPC leadership race. She's brilliant, true blue big C Conservative, a Dr., and, as much as I hate to stoop to this level, Black and Female. To the extent one subscribes to intersectional hierarchies (which I do NOT!) she's the full meal deal.

So who do you see taking his place? I very much appreciate Leslyn Lewis especially after attending a small gathering of 200 true blue conservatives where she spoke freely and forcefully. She is the real deal. Andrew Lawton with fire in his belly. Raquel Sancho Rachael Thomas We need a Conservative unafraid of Rosemary & Co. After all, the Libs boldly say and do what they want. As well as the Bloc and NDP. But Conservative politicians wither and die as they attempt to please everyone. Time to become the Popeye Party: I y’am what I y’am …

Those bi-elections were terrible for the CPC. It is not his fault, but Poilievre will never be the PM. He needs to resign. Conservatives cannot lose again. A single additional loss will be the end of Canada as a liberal democratic society. Even now that may be over.

@FromPayne @Smileyyeg Hah! 🤣

@Smileyyeg Replace him with who? Mossad Melissa?

Dear Canada, The American People love and cherish you. What we don't like is your Prime Minister bad mouthing us while he and his family live in, study in, work in, own in, and profit from the United States. Get rid of this globalist turd.

I think it's pretty awesome when someone can speak another language, so when someone speaks to me in broken English I may politely correct them to help them learn the language a little better. I also may not bother to correct them if I don't know them that well. I was always taught to respect someone who speaks English poorly because it means they know more than one language and they bothered to learn Enblish, which is very hard.

Oh, Canada! What a spectacle of democratic desecration we behold in this, the year of our discontent 2026. Mark Carney—banker, globalist, darling of the Davos set—has been wafted into the Prime Minister’s office on a perfumed zephyr of backroom intrigue, without the vulgar inconvenience of a single vote from the Canadian people. And with him has come a majority government so artificially contrived, so brazenly manufactured, that even the most jaded observer of our parliamentary farce must pause, rub his eyes, and wonder whether we have not slipped, quite unnoticed, into some banana republic with better snow removal. This is not governance. This is alchemy of the most cynical sort—base political metal transmuted into the gold of power by the sleight of hand of floor-crossers, turncoats, and opportunists who have traded principle for patronage with the shameless ease of a dockside huckster. The Westminster system, that venerable contrivance of British genius which we inherited and once revered, was never meant to be a plaything for the ambitious. The Prime Minister, under its ancient rules, is not elected by the sovereign people but emerges as the leader who can command the confidence of the House of Commons. Very well. Yet even this elastic convention presupposes honour, presupposes that MPs remember they sit in that chamber not as feudal retainers of a party machine but as representatives of their constituents, bound by conscience and oath. Enter Mark Carney, fresh from the boardrooms of international finance, crowned Liberal leader after Trudeau’s merciful retirement into the shadows, and sworn in without ever having faced the electorate in a general contest. No seat in the Commons at the moment of ascension? No matter. A convenient by-election, a nudge here, a whisper there, and presto—democracy is satisfied in form while being gutted in substance. But Carney’s majority? That required more than mere procedural gymnastics. It required betrayal. It required a small but decisive cadre of Members of Parliament—men and women elected under one banner—to rip off that banner, toss it into the gutter, and scurry across the floor to the Liberal benches like so many rats deserting a sinking Conservative ship for the plush lifeboats of office. And chief among these contemptible figures—let us name her without flinching—is Marilyn Gladu. Oh, Marilyn Gladu! Once a Conservative voice from Sarnia—Lambton, elected on the promise of fiscal sanity, energy realism, and a certain sturdy independence from the Laurentian elite. How the mighty have fallen, and how spectacularly. This lady, who once railed against the excesses of Trudeau’s spendthrift regime, who positioned herself as a voice of the pragmatic centre-right, has now performed the most acrobatic of political somersaults. She has not merely crossed the floor; she has executed a full vault, with pike and twist, into the very heart of the Liberal caucus. For what? A cabinet post? A parliamentary secretaryship? The warm glow of being on the winning side for once? The pension calculations must have been exquisite. One searches in vain for any principle that could justify such a defection. Was it a sudden conversion to the gospel of carbon taxes, net-zero zealotry, and the endless moral preening of the Laurentian Left? Did the scales fall from her eyes at the sight of Carney’s radiant technocratic visage? Or was it simpler, baser— the old, old story of ambition dressed up as conscience? Whatever the motive, the spectacle is grotesque. Here is a woman who was sent to Ottawa by voters who trusted her to oppose the very government she now props up. She has disenfranchised her own riding. She has spat upon the mandate she once sought. And she has done it with that peculiar smile of the professional politician who believes the public memory is short and the press is friendly. Nor is she alone in this gallery of rogues. There are others—lesser lights, perhaps, but cut from the same shabby cloth. The anonymous backbenchers who suddenly discovered hitherto unsuspected affinities with Liberal policy. The one or two who cited “the national interest” with all the sincerity of a used-car salesman swearing on his mother’s grave. Each one of them has participated in a fraud upon the electorate. They were elected to hold the government to account, to provide an alternative, to represent the growing Western and rural discontent with Ottawa’s suffocating centralism. Instead, they have manufactured a majority where none existed. They have handed Carney the unchecked power to ram through whatever agenda his globalist heart desires—more taxes, more regulation, more virtue-signalling on the world stage—without the bother of facing a hostile House or the discipline of minority government compromise. This, dear reader, is the abomination. A Liberal majority conjured not from the ballot box but from the black arts of caucus raiding. A government that claims democratic legitimacy while resting on the most anti-democratic of foundations. The people of Canada did not vote for this. In the last election—however flawed and manipulated by media and money—it was a minority outcome. The electorate spoke with division and hesitation. Yet here we are, with a Prime Minister who never faced them and a majority sustained by defectors who have made a mockery of representative government. One can almost hear the ghost of John A. Macdonald chuckling bitterly in the parliamentary corridors. This is not how the Fathers of Confederation envisioned the place. This is not responsible government; it is irresponsible power-grabbing. And the sheer effrontery of it all! The Liberals, those tireless defenders of “democracy” when it suits them, those thunderers against “American-style” populism, now sit fat and happy on a majority purchased with the coin of betrayal. They lecture us on institutions while despoiling them. They speak of unity while deepening the very fractures that make Confederation tremble. And what of the consequences? The West watches this charade and feels, once again, the cold hand of alienation. Alberta, that great engine of Canadian prosperity, sees its concerns dismissed, its resources demonized, its people patronized—and now its democratic voice diluted by this Ottawa sleight-of-hand. If the system can produce a majority government without an election, without Western seats, without so much as a nod to the grievances of the producing provinces, then why pretend the federation is a partnership? Why not, some are now openly asking, independence? The floor-crossers have not merely embarrassed their former party; they have accelerated the very centrifugal forces they once claimed to oppose. Marilyn Gladu and her fellow travellers will, no doubt, sleep soundly in their Ottawa beds, comforted by the perquisites of power and the approving murmurs of the Laurentian cocktail circuit. History, however, will record them differently. As small-souled opportunists. As the parliamentary equivalents of those Victorian scoundrels who sold their votes for a title or a sinecure. As the final proof—if any more were needed—that the Liberal machine regards Parliament not as a temple of democracy but as a boardroom to be rigged. Canada deserves better. Its people, from the oilfields of Alberta to the fishing wharves of Newfoundland, deserve representatives with spines, not weather vanes. They deserve a system that honours the ballot, not one that circumvents it with procedural contortions and purchased loyalties. Until that day—if it ever comes—we are left with this: a Liberal majority born in sin, sustained by betrayal, and destined, one fervently hopes, to be judged by an electorate that has not forgotten how to be outraged. The abomination stands. But so too does the memory of honest politics. And in that memory lies whatever hope remains for this bruised and battered dominion.

i asked @grok to "give me 1000 words in the voice, writing style, tone, cadence, and tenor of the late, great Rex Murphy on the abomination that is the current Liberal Majority. include a merciless lambasting of Marilyn Gladu and the other floor crossers." I'll post it in the replies.

We are going for full independence, but we will probably have to rely on recognition by the U.S. for it to succeed. The rest of the country is intent on abusing us and forcing us to stay instead of trying to create the conditions under which we would want to stay. You are exactly right. The state-funded broadcaster is putting out endless propaganda on why it isn't legal or possible, and the juristocracy is swinging in full force - court challenges every which way, with activist judges bringing a very (VERY) liberal interpretation of laws in favour of anyone trying to stop this movement. Anything to stop the right of the people to their own self-determination. Our Federal government, which operates under the British Westminster parliamentary system where the Prime Minister isn’t directly elected by voters but is simply the leader of whichever party commands the confidence of the House of Commons, has now let Mark Carney slither his way into an unelected majority. After Trudeau resigned, Carney was crowned Liberal leader and sworn in as PM without ever facing the electorate or even holding a seat in Parliament at the time. Through a string of floor-crossings, convenient by-elections, and backroom deals he’s manufactured a rock-solid majority that gives him unchecked power until the next scheduled vote (minimum 2 years away, potentially up to 3) which is exactly the kind of insider game that proves Ottawa has zero interest in listening to the West. This blatant power grab has only supercharged support for #AlbertaIndependence. Polls are jumping, donations are pouring in, and even lifelong federalists are now saying “enough” because if the system can hand one man a unelected majority, then the federation isn’t a partnership, it’s a prison. The momentum is real, and it’s growing every single day.

@AndrewInAlberta @Nebazanas How is the whole secession going? I'm sure you are bombarded with BS media everyday! Are you guys going for independence or become apart of the US?
