@cbcwatcher @nenshi He's trying to build a narrative of Smith and UCP bad. This is an interesting take because, he's only offer made up conspiracies to paint her in a bad light. Offering nothing in positive approach to Alberta's success He's more concerned with image than the hard work of government

Could someone remind Nenshi about the two and a half year Supply and Confidence Agreement Jagmeet Singh cut with Justin Trudeau? And how it helped the Party? @nenshi

@PiBPodcast You're mistaken to believe secession is born from recent challenges.

Alberta threatening to leave Canada isn't the real danger. The threat lies in normalizing provincial secession when challenges arise. This sets a dangerous precedent, especially now, with global affairs at their most volatile in decades. We need unity, not division.

@ryangerritsen Was Kinew is being an obvious ass here. Certainly behavior unbecoming of a Premier. My question is, what is with the Speaker? Besides one faint "order", nothing? Restore order to that house Speaker. Name the Premier and eject him. The whole thing is just weird, man 😕

Listen to how Wab Kinew was acting on May 19th in the Manitoba Legislature. He was making dog growling noises, multiple cackling laughs, he when asked if he could stop he says no. Who these people are in front of Cameras are not who they are in real life.

@JackDan110 @WabKinew Isn't there a speaker in that legislature? What's happening in Manitoba?

Is @WabKinew DRUNK? Totally unacceptable behavior from a Premier. But then again, he is NDP and they are ALL radical, self entitled, activists. Check into REHAB Wabby.

@globalnews Did they get our memo about catalysing things? The stuff about ruptures, and divided though? Will they accept our best intentions? We've spent a lot of money with some best intentions, just wondering if that moves the needle.

The Pentagon official said Canada "has fallen short on deploying the necessary resources to rebuild its armed forces." globalnews.ca/news/11858961/…

@MelissaLMRogers Of course Carney wants to sell airports With this kind of security issue it may be prudent to shift liability away from the government 🙄 Much easier than government doing their actual jobs

HOLY CRAP 🇨🇦 More than 7,500 employees were flagged for some type of security CONCERN but still received their clearance allowing access to restricted airport areas Canada’s institutions and infrastructure have been infiltrated and now Carney wants to sell airports!? 👀

@sarobertson_ Anyone asking why there are so many separatists in Alberta yet. Or do you all still "know" why?

Christy Clark: "If this should succeed, Danielle Smith will go down as probably the worst premier Canada has ever had. If it fails, she'll go down as someone who got lucky and got out of there with their skin intact and certainly still isn't qualified to be the premier of a province."

@wealthmoose Double like 👍 For years we've posed the question of how do taxes change the climate... They dont. They create a market out of nowhere. The Carbon taxes are to establish a price for carbon For a market A market that doesn't exist Until our money is used.

🚨 The Alberta MOU was never just about Alberta.🇨🇦 It was a template. Carbon pricing compliance as the price of admission for every project in every province going forward. The pipeline was the carrot. 🥕 National carbon market was always the destination. 📍🤷🏽 #CdnPoli #MarkCarney #Alberta The

@sarobertson_ Naheed Nenshi lies like most people breathe. It's just so natural for him

Naheed Nenshi on Danielle Smith: "The separatists are the ones who got her elected. We always knew that there would be a quid pro quo. We always knew that she owed them something and what they she owes them is a referendum question."

@Derricktgoat They aren't Markets are traded on speculation, rather that reality. Carney is about creating some green market where private companies will invest in Canadian electricity because it's net zero.

I put in a heat pump two years ago and my local utility wouldn’t give me another 200 amp panel in my garage/apartment because they didn’t have transformer capacity. So, tell me, how is everyone switching to electric when they don’t have the power supply.

@AmazingZoltan The David Eby pipeline naming convention is an obvious winner. 👍 We dont even need a government to approve naming. We can do it through the zeitgeist Just whenever your speaking of a new Alberta Pipeline, also called the David Eby Pipeline to the West. Add a few more characters

HAPPENING NOW: Eby renames Site C Damn after ex-Premier John Horgan. Horgan opposed the project, including being photographed in 2012 with a sign reading "Site C Sucks." In the same tradition, I wonder if one day we will see a "David Eby pipeline" stretching across the province.

@sarobertson_ "Low Risk" is from Canadian tax payers being responsible for the fund the Carney Government intends to borrow to finance. His intention is to shift the risk onto the Canadian tax payers Haven't we endured enough Liberal bad deals yet? How are those battery plants we funded doing?

PM Carney: "Canada is on a path to become a low-risk, low-risk being one of the most important elements here, low-cost and low-carbon supplier that the world needs."

@junonewscom When demand for a commodity, like energy without matching supply... The price increases

PM Mark Carney says Canada needs millions of households to switch to electric heat pumps, arguing it will lower energy costs and strengthen the country's "net zero" transition. He added: "When we master energy, we master our destiny."

@mario4thenorth @NorthrnPrspectv For years it has been why carbon tax, taxes dont change the climate. This is why carbon tax. So they can quantify CO2 with a dollar value. So they can force the creation of a "Carbon Market" So they can sell carbon offsets. He's PM to make Canada create a market... for him

Jasmin is right. @NorthrnPrspectv put out an unbelievable report yesterday: -2018: Trudeau government commits $400M to the International Finance Corporation (IFC) for “blended climate finance” -2023: Mark Carney sits on the IFC advisory panel that publishes a report calling for “public subsidies” to de-risk private clean energy investment -2024/2025: IFC announces $105M for a Brookfield solar project in India. And $100M (plus $75M co-investment envelope) into Brookfield’s Catalytic Transition Fund. Carney is Chairman of Brookfield -2026: Carney announces the Sovereign Debt Fund He’s now cutting the cheques. And we don’t know his holdings either. Everything they told you was a conspiracy theory, is objectively true. He’s going to de-risk private investments, with taxpayers being on the hook. He’s the most conflicted PM in Canadian history.

@KathleenGanley Why are you against democracy here?

It’s time for Smith to let the separatists down, act in the interest of Albertans, and cancel the referendum. Smith had a way out - she changed the legislation for the separatists four times - she could definitely claim to have done her best and finally walk away.

@The_Brian_Life Except all recent threats of incursion have been intercepted by the US Airforce. In these instances, the Canadian Airforce was unable to respond in a timely fashion

Hot take: The United States doesn't actually protect Canada from anyone, & the idea that we're under some kind of special "American security umbrella" is coercive nonsense. European NATO allies would sooner help us out of good will than the US, for whom goodwill is not a factor.

@peteremcc Once Lukaszuk, who is seeking relevance again, realized his question has multiple interpretations, he is now trying to pull it back.

There's no argument - Lukaszuk is just lying. He repeatedly said he wanted a referendum, including in his application. (See 🟡) It's true he ticked Legislative/Policy, not Constitutional Referendum. (See 🟢) But the law allowed referenda under both categories! (See 🔴)

@coreyhoganyyc Making energy more expensive results in faster inflation

The path to net zero runs through construction sites, transmission lines, factories, retrofits, and investment decisions. In a world where we already know HOW to decarbonize, climate action is about growth. My latest: 👇 f.mtr.cool/wrbortnzxt

@gator_gum Cheering for taxes? That's weird 😕

You fight taxes because that is the lowest common denominator of your base. Crime and taxes. Year after year... That's absolutely not "the job" There is nothing wrong with taxes. It's about what do you get for them. Fighting taxes as a blanket policy is pandering.

@DavidColetto She treats them as frustrated Albertans whose concerns deserve a process. What your missing, is 25% supporting separation today. All Albertans are familiar with these discussions. You would like separatists to be a fringe minority. Western Separation is a common discussion

Most Albertans oppose independence. But enough of the UCP’s activist base supports it that Danielle Smith appears unwilling to shut the movement down. My latest essay explores the politics, incentives, and polling behind her choices. open.substack.com/pub/davidcolet…
