Please do not feed the birds. Feeding creates a dependent population that is a potential health hazard and makes a costly mess. Birds. Just birds.

@Factory2590 @CanadaWillPrj It's funny that federalists think the Americans will let a petulant Canada shit off their heavy oil supply. Has anyone seen what Americans do when their oil is threatened? I hope they try to shut down Enbridge's Alberta clipper line. FAFO.

@CanadaWillPrj @14thBaseline All pipe going south touches another province first? Do you have a map handy? See that thing called "Montana"? Do you think that's a province?

Separation makes no sense for Alberta. It will produce years of uncertainty, make Albertans poorer, and lead to AB being swallowed by the US. HQs will move, and people too, crashing home prices. And it would be 100% self inflicted. The numbers don’t add up #ableg

@CalgaryDave Sad week for the methheads. Must be tough on them.

No smoking crack for at least 11 days.

@Doubletapp187 @Alberta_UCP The population has gotten a lot softer and now thinks the government should hold a central decision making role in their lives?

Can anyone in the @Alberta_UCP tell me why it only cost newfoundland 150 million in nation start up costs in 1907 vs the "400 billion" it would cost Albertans in 2026? That 400 billion number seems detached from reality. That 150 million is in today's numbers.

@CanadaWillPrj Do you think there's only one pipeline? Brother, we export millions of barrels / day right now. We sell enough to be a successful independent nation already. The argument for the future is over exceptionalism.

@14thBaseline Except the one new US proposed pipeline, in the last 20 years, was rejected by the US. Has Trump not taught you anything about overrelying on one trading partner? #factsmatter

@CanadaWillPrj No country, except Canada, is dumb enough to landlock their resources. Fortunately Alberta is already an example of a richer landlocked province. Access to tidewater would be a great benefit. Access to the American market matters more.

@14thBaseline But yet you don’t provide an example of a landlocked oil producing states that has gotten richer via separation. All talk.

@JoeyTweetz @CanadaWillPrj To be fair to Quebec, they have good natural gas reserves. They just choose not to use them because it would take work and might jeopardize the free money Albertans are forced to send them. It's smart, if the goal is grinding mediocrity.

@CanadaWillPrj @14thBaseline Quebec and Alberta are vastly different. Alberta has the 4th largest oil reserve on the planet. Quebec has poutine?

@CanadaWillPrj Provide an example of an small oil rich independent nation having a good economy? Gee, I'm sure I can think of something. Your logical fallacy to avoid decision making has no power here. The whole point is to make decisions, federalist.

@14thBaseline All pipe going south touches another prov first. I am not advocating for worst case. You called it that. I showed it could be worse Provide one example of an expert who says AB will be richer under separation. There are none. Even Grok knows.

@CanadaWillPrj We don't need Ottawa to keep our economy growing. We have products the entire world wants and, unlike Canada, a population willing to do the work to sell them. Don't worry most exports go south. Not east and west. We don't need the rest of Canada's non-function domestic market.

@CanadaWillPrj You are making bad assumptions based on a faulty premise because you don't understand the nature of confederation. Will, Alberta losses money in federal transfers. We send far more to Ottawa than we "get" back.

@ColdWarVet1980 The problem is a lot of fellow voters would gleefully vote for socialism. Our socialists friends need to know there'll be a lot more cheese for Albertans as soon as we stop sending it to Ottawa.

New Banner for the garage door

@Landonforward14 Cut spending. Cut services. Cut government. People can no longer afford the cost of government.

Calgary city council sets the 2027 property tax rate in November. Setting aside the provincial education portion (which council doesn't control), what municipal increase would you find acceptable next year? calgary.ca/our-finances/b…

@WomanDefiner Albertas have a saying for the rest of Canada and its stupid energy policy: let the eastern bastard freeze in the dark. The euros are free to melt in the dark. If they're too stupid to understand hot weather can be solved they, like Africans and aids, deserve their fate.

I much rather my tax money go towards getting Europeans Air conditioning than Africans AIDS treatment to be honest.

@nenshi I'm over taxed. Can you do something about the size, scope, and cost of government.

If you've got stuff you need to get rid of, look for the community cleanup in your neighbourhood.

@yegwave He's right, separation will be an incredible amount of work. But it is a solution. Carney will not give a solution. He will also not acknowledge there's a problem.

Prime Minister Mark Carney will attend the Calgary Stampede next week with a message that Alberta separation offers no easy solution. Carney plans to highlight economic risks and cite the United Kingdom’s Brexit experience as a cautionary example. He described separation as a dangerous bluff rather than a free option.

@kpac_15 Choosing Canada means choosing mediocrity.

Canadian productivity stats- Alberta- 3.8% BC- 0.3% Ontario- 0.3% Quebec- minus 0.9% Alberta’s backs are getting sore carrying the rest of these useless tits.

@somajoe69 @joshua_rangers See? No solutions. Not even an idea of the problem. Your country is dead Joe, it's dead because of apathy from people like you.

@14thBaseline @joshua_rangers You bore me with your far right ditchbilly talking points

Can anyone give me a REAL reason why Alberta shouldn't fight for its independence, prosperity and sovereignty?

@Write4Republic Public unions for sure. Private unions can understand making more money and investing benefits the works. Few do this.

Unions are basically all socialist.

@somajoe69 @joshua_rangers I can make the argument for incentivized mediocrity, imbalances in the house and judiciary, a useless senate, overreaching federal policies, internal trade barriers, and ineffective management of fed responsibilities I don't think you can explain these away or find a solution.

@14thBaseline @joshua_rangers "The country you're think of is already gone Joe. There is no soft approach to the failure of our confederation. " This is the point that we need to agree to disagree on

@Doubletapp187 How many of those 600,000 are provincial or muni funded workers?

600,000 Albertans are going to pay the maximum CPP1 and CPP2 premiums in 2026. We pay billions more into CPP than we receive back, going back decades. Albertans are being used to keep the aging population in Eastern canada fat and happy while our pay cheques get smaller and smaller. We should be taking care of seniors in Alberta only.
