Given the homoerotic context of Spartan culture, he would probably have been passed around and used by the more muscular, hard-bodied, physically aggressive men.
Idealogical, Alberta Evangelical groups have already joined MAGG movements. America doesn’t want the responsibility of the Alberta oil sands clean up. Most foreign capital has exited Alberta and even though Alberta is pumping a lot of oil, they have no foreign buyers except American that will only purchase it only if at a deep discount.

Yes Alberta continues to get shafted by the glaring inequities of transfer payments to Quebec but recently Alberta has falling on sustained hard times and is receiving a lot of financial aid from Ottawa .
let us know when that "financial aid" has reached 611 Billion
Alberta has paid $611 Billion in transfer payments from 1961 to 2017 | The Post Millennial
Ottawa's "help" also includes the intentional and deliberate efforts to shut down Alberta economic engine, "Energy" despite growing energy demand
Justin is a moron implementing Gerald's agenda
If Alberta leaves Quebec will still want its extortion money
The interest rate when Harper left office was 0.5%. Presently it is 0.25%, so anything to trigger a positive message from Pissed Off Poilievre for that fact?
Liberals must be scared. That's why the MSM was defending O'Toole so much.
Since this Pandemic the rates all over the Globe are set to trend upwards. Canada is no exception unless the nation is all set to move towards Mars. Poilievre can save his questions for Tuesday, instead of looking pissed off all the time!!

Alberta is pumping more oil under the Trudeau Liberals than they ever did under Harper. Oil is still heavily required despite the Green energy games. Who ever gets the clean up bill from this ecological shit show will not be happy though.

It wasn't egalitarian.
It was massively hierarchical. The free non-citizens didn't have any power even if they weren't slaves.
And it had WAY more slaves proportional to the citizens than most Greek city states.
The Spartiates were what... 6% of the population maybe?
Everyone else either wasn't a citizen or was a slave.
Sparta was just terrible all around.
Going “hard right” in a pandemic and expecting to succeed is an oxymoron in terms. MAGA and CERB don’t mix well and are very foreign, even alien to each.
Poilievre is perhaps an interim caretaker PC would be leader that might serve only to hold the cantankerous potential splinter factions together to avoid a “Reform Party “ like situation that would take years repair. The Cons must know that Poilievre has little chance of forming a government and even more chance of damaging their brand even with Trudeau’s shortcomings.
The Federal PCs might still want to wait until the conditions are “right” for Jason Kenney to be anointed but the shot clock may have already ran out.
Harper wisely kept ominously silent until he was in office and was able to introduce his hidden agenda, allowing him to be one of Canada’s longest serving PMs. Poilievre is useful as an effective rabid opposition attack dog at best , but as a leader he would be an ultra short termed fart of a firecracker!
You were making a slapstick reference, 300 is the silliest film I've ever seen. I enjoyed watching it but there was no repeat. What started out as a film about the Greco-Persian War has now turned silly. His brogue is too sharp to be Greek and those aren't proper keep left signs. Shove off the lot of you. Right, now lets see something decent and military!
Kenney's tainted goods and Moe won't sell outside his own little fiefdom. They need an Ontario-based moderate who's smart and has impeccable patriotic antecedents. Maybe a lawyer who served in the armed forces for a while and seems reasonable and bright. A guy like that could unseat Trudeau, if the average Central Canada voter thinks that guy is independent of the rabid extremists and regionalists in his own party.
Can you think of a guy like the guy that I just described?.... MacToole? O'Poole? What's that name again?
What do you think the CPC would do with a guy like that? Would they support him or would they simply destroy him because he's not a Prairie, right wing fuckwit?
I think that the PCs will have another split with a new radical party forming which can represent the West resulting in a Liberal majority with or without Trudeau even. Then after the Western radical off shots have spent themselves out, they will be brought into the party not likely by an Ontario politician but by a Harper typed Westerner consensus builder, with reconstructive surgeon like abilities.
Learn something about the oil industry
Investment $ was intentionally targeted, driven away and shut down
Oil is a depleting asset and requires constant investment to maintain reserves
No investment and conventional and shale oil reserves run down
The deliberate and intentional attack on pipelines also ensured the ongoing massive discounting of CAD energy continues
Alberta gets a fraction of the world price per barrel
Abandon wells is a reasonable beef
This can be addressed by a healthy energy industry
Killing the industry will create a whole lot more- ! not a threat but simple logic
Well they got 10B more then they paid in last year. Plus how much carbon did they dump into the air over those years for free?
Gt back to us when you get close to $611B
Ask the consumers of the product who actually released the Co2
Did you purchase gasoline or turn on your furnace or lights during that time period?
Buy any food, new clothing, anything made out of plastic, take any trips more than 10 Kms .........etc etc
You know stuff you demand and just expect a supply is available to meet that demand
By the way you paid world market price to the Saudis , while your countrymen in Alberta received a massive discount for the oil they sold
Bah to the military. Now being a Lumberjack, there is a man's way of live. The Larch, the Scotts Pine...
Foreign capital left the Canadian oil patch which happens to be in Alberta because it is not profitable and has a poor prognosis for many reasons, nothing to do with being driven out by the Canadian Government. The Harper Conservative were in office for many years and failed to build a trans Canada pipe line. The present Canadian government is assisting in keeping the current production going devoid of previous foreign capital. The environmental damage is epic and has caught the world’s attention.
Neil Young said the oil patch looked like “ Hiroshima “ for good reason “.
This is Canadian oil, not Alberta oil as we are all in this together which is why as Alberta moves closer to becoming a “have not province”, they can count on Ottawa to backstop them.
Alberta is in no position to leave Canada now for sure and a guy like Poilievre will attempt to opportunistically stoke the rage, anger and hatred that has long festered in Alberta which has been home to many hate groups disproportionate to that province’s population.

So you want to claim ownership of the evil carbon molecules now do you?
Not willing to buy the Western Canadian oil, but you want to lay claim to it ?
I suggest you buy land leases, do the geological study, preform the seismic, drill , test and cap, lay 10-100 Km of pipe to connect to midstream and then market it
Until then the oil belongs to mother nature or the first company to extract it
Odd how the govt tried this before, it was called Petro Canada and it was a disaster until govt sold it off via a public offering
Not when the Federal government deliberately and intentionally works to shut down a provinces economic engine we are not
That has to be one of the most condescending and ignorant things I have ever read
"we intend on driving you and your family into bankruptcy and then we shall give you food stamps"
That is precisely the arrogant attitude which will drive the odds of Albertan separation higher
Have a lot experience in extortion do you?]
Are you willing to risk the end of confederation on that uniformed opinion?

Not even close
Justin Trudeau sent a clear and loud message
Oil money will be put to sleep here via strangulation by regulatory and environmental red tape
Three pipelines were approved and ready to go when Steven Harper left office.
One was outright vetoed by the moron
The other was killed via environmental regulatory strangulation and the third had to be bought when Justin painted himself into a corner. He will not proceed with the planned expansion
How?
The Canadian Got does not subsidize production or exploration/ development
Canadian oil has one of the best records in the world for responsible development
The oil you use in your car comes from the middle east, you hypocrite
Why anybody quotes celebrities about any matter has always remained a mystery
Neil Young has musical talent and has written some really cool songs
He is not an expert in economic policy and, he does not need to worry about putting food on the table
His opinion is moot.
