@dhh @FireworksAI_HQ How good is it compared to the mainstream models?
English
@RyanWJanzen @JeffreyRWRath How about "The Free Republic of New Buffalo".
English
@logan__woolf @JeffreyRWRath Ya, youโre right. How bout โUnited Prairieโsโ or โLushlandโ ? What do you think would be a good name?
English
Should we call the new country Alsask? ๐
Rise Of Alberta@RiseOfAlberta
Alberta and Saskatchewan together will become an economic powerhouse. Oil, natural gas, fertilizer, uranium, potash, and critical minerals. The resources the world needs, built by two provinces no longer held back by a declining Canada.

@logan__woolf @shirleyturnbull @YukonStrong @JeffreyRWRath The plan is assumptionโheavy and unrealistic. Even the authors admit to rough estimates (ยฑ10%). Core elements like CPP/APP transfers and projected billions are negotiable and uncertain, while major transition costs are barely addressed. #AlbertaIndependence
English
Canada hasn't caught on how serious this is yet.
All conservative paths lead to independence right now.
I agree w/ @JeffreyRWRath, at minimum a separatist Bloc Redneckois will form in the fallout ...and not just in Alberta.
English
English
@logan__woolf @shirleyturnbull @YukonStrong @JeffreyRWRath #AlbertaIndependence is built on speculation, exaggerated assumptions and additional costs that would arise are being ignored.
English
@JamesDueck same here. if we call it "new canada" maybe that will make them feel better.
English
The only argument Iโve heard against Alberta independence is nostalgia. Thereโs nothing wrong with this argument, but looking out for your children and grandchildren is 1000x more important than a nice picture of Canadiana.

@Mangan150 @indexnforgetit yeah a nice car that doesn't cause you stress because you can't afford it is worth every penny
English
@indexnforgetit Disagree. A nice car need not be expensive, and massively improves your life.
English
Don't do this
Instead, create a life so amazing you don't give a shit what kind of car you're driving
Buying flashy cars is a cope unless you're ultra-wealthy
the ultimate G@mrplentyhoes
Don't wait till your 76 to buy a nice car Buy a nice car as soon as you make cash Buying a nice car will improve the quality of your life which is to whole point of cash Nice car > 40k in bitcoin Nice car > 100k in the S&P 500 People won't tell you this But it's a fact

@Martyupnorth this is the least productive topic in politics
English
Tell me you're a bigot without telling me your a bigot. ๐
๐จ๐ฆWayne๐จ๐ฆ@Reil76
I follow people for who they are, not their political party, religion, or any other label. I genuinely donโt give a fuck about that shit. I follow conservatives, MAGA folks, Indians, Catholics, Muslims, whatever. Doesnโt matter to me. What I care about is simple: donโt be an asshole. Iโve got zero time or patience for that. How fucking boring would the world be if we all thought and believed the exact same damn thing about everything?
English
English
@YukonStrong @JeffreyRWRath And mar Alberta politics with this futile attempt of secession by a bunch of individual groups who canโt get their shit together; scaring away investments. The opposition and our current government is not on your side, and thatโs a huge obstacle.

We had another full house in Calgary yesterday.
During the Q&A someone asked how we reach the younger people? They seemed worried that there weren't many in the crowd. Here's my answer.
"Don't equate the crowd tonight with the overall support for the movement. We reach people through small events like this, social media such as Facebook, one-on-one discussion, podcasts, living room meetings, ralies, road-side petition locations, and even mainstream media stories.
Different groups engage differently. Older Albertans like to meet in settings like this. But right now, we also have more than 350 folks watching us while we live stream. Many are younger supporters, who have families, jobs, and can't take time out of their lives to come attend an in-person meeting at 7:00 pm on a Thursday."
I can assure you from my own personal experience, especially as a canvasser who has collected over 600 signatures, that the movement is reaching across the entirety of Alberta's population.
See you in Lethbridge tonight.

@JeffreyRWRath i'd rather have New Canada than some dumb mashing together of province names. Republic of Western Canada, Republic of Buffalo, New Buffalo are decent but the best name has probably not been suggested yet.
English
English
@RyanWJanzen @JeffreyRWRath there isn't anything good about that name. i really hope we're smarter than to just push two words together.
English
@sweet1lew @JeffreyRWRath this is honestly a pretty good idea
English
@JeffreyRWRath I would name it Buffalo as they almost did in 1904 debating in parliament to split it up because โthey will have too much power โ their words not mine but true
English
@ZemuUrdock @JeffreyRWRath if the new country has two names smashed together i'm leaving the movement
English
@JeffreyRWRath Choose wisely so that your kids wonโt making jokes about it ! ๐คฃ๐
Or hold another referendum ๐ง !!
๐๐
You know, with the DudleyDoRight option, we could get that character mounted on the freakinโ flag ๐ป๐ช ! ๐คฃ๐
English
@59years_of_gray @JeffreyRWRath true fact
English
@JeffreyRWRath It was called Buffalo before the Feds broke the 2 apart. It was too large at the time, and the Feds wanted to make sure that all Canadian power stayed firmly in the East.
English
@DorinTheOld @JeffreyRWRath i definitely don't hate it
English
@JeffreyRWRath @yegwave i wonder if anyone has bothered asking him why those numbers, or why not zero or negative numbers.
English
@yegwave So we are down to 2,000,000 a year from 4,000,000?
English
@levelsio the funny part is when you ask people why feedlots are needed they get extremely pissed off. and if you mention grass fed beef they say it "tastes bad" which is totally false.
English
I told you guys before Argentinean meat is one of the worst in the world
Their farms switched from free roaming grass fed beef to factory farmed feedlots like America
None of it is original great Argentinean meat that they were famous for 30 years ago
Uruguay still has free roaming grass fed beef
A tragedy really
Great article on this: traveldeeper.co/culture-food/tโฆ
BowTiedMara@BowTiedMara
China ๐จ๐ณ rejected 22 tons of meat from Argentina ๐ฆ๐ท after finding chloramphenicol, an antibiotic banned for human consumption for 30 years, and suspended exports from one of Argentina's main meatpacking plants.

@AngetheBrave72 @AshleyW72096520 i think i've only ever done it like once. now on the list for this summer.
English
@AshleyW72096520 It really is! I love the drive across the border at Chief Mountain crossing to Babb MT. You canโt get any closer to Chief than this way. It is phenomenal.
