yeah.. like when Trudeau bought Alberta the pipeline through B.C.?
Danielle Smith turns her back on Canada...
- Thread starter nottyboi
- Start date
She is a traitor to Canada. Every other province including Quebec are on board. We need to stand united against Trump, not make secret deals to save big oil. Trudeau bought a pipeline for Alberta, so cut that bullshit about him trying to kill the oil industry. He's trying to balance the oil with the climate challenges, and that takes compromise. Alberta loves to whine but they are doing fine. "Western alienation" is a crock used by Alberta politicians just like Trump uses Mexicans. It's crazy , because half of Albertans come from eastern Canada in the last 40 years!AFAIK Smith took the initiative on her own. If you're not aware, she's been touring the United States for the last two weeks, talking to anyone she can about Alberta.
She is the Premier of Alberta, not he Premier of Canada. It's too bad there is, for good reasons, a vacuum at the top and thus others have stepped in.
I mean, HOW could she not trust the current Federal Government run by a Trudeau not to look after AB's best interests. Kill the oil industry and save the climate at the same time.
Why would a strategic oil reserve cost hundreds of billions? We are not gonna line the tanks with gold. 100M bbls of oil will cost a mere $10B I doubt tanks will cost more then 1B, the oil can be leasted to underwite futures contracts and it would actually make money. Even when EVs take over oil will remain an essential commodity for a long time, But the demand will start to fall sometime in the next 5-10 years. So lets see, Norway CRAZY RICH with over 80% of new cars EVs.. AB making Americans crazy rich ..most gas guzzling pick ups. Am I so strange? lol. You claim I am an Eco warrior when I told you I have oil stocks in my portfolio. WTF. Yes I like clean air and can't stand the smell of diesel fumes. Maybe coal roill youself while backing out the driveway lol .
That is absolute RUBBISH. We have seen the turmoil they cause again and again. Many people don't want to work in the industry because of that. Maybe if the managed it better other provinces would be willing to collaborate with them more.

Sorry, hindsight bias only works after the fact.
What other response would you have to a global pandemic with an infection no one has ever seen before?
What do you say in the initial response, "We'll just wait this out."?
She's in the US discussing trade and she doesn't even know the rules for trade.
And this is person some here support.
What do you say when nothing changes after the supposed first 2 weeks yet you keep it going for the next 2 years. Vaccines mandates were never recommended. And you don't fire healthcare workers during a pandemic.Sorry, hindsight bias only works after the fact.

Her and DoFo are fighting about it.She's in the US discussing trade and she doesn't even know the rules for trade.

The conservatives can't even work together.

Probably the same thing Ford said, we need to move forward.
Doug Ford says future COVID-19 lockdowns ‘not our goal,’ wants to ‘move forward’ cautiously | Globalnews.ca
"Our goal is to move forward in a very cautious way to make sure we don't have to have lockdowns," Doug Ford said.

And I disagree that having one of the lowest covid rates in the world can be interpreted as 'nothing changes'.
So many maritimers in the oil patch. Fort McMurray flies in codfish and has direct flights to Newfoundland.
INdeed, The govt was following expert advice, people expect a drama teacher to say "nooo PHDs you have no idea, I will just ignore you and hope millions don't die"? Even Trump, who is a socipath, deployed many lockdown measures. Even Xi the commie dictator for life. I think the lockdowns DID save some lives, but I think the real lesson is the collateral damage caused by lockdowns. Next pandemic we will apply the lessons and it will be a much more deadly virus and we will end up with a Walking Dead ScenarioSorry, hindsight bias only works after the fact.

To Trudeaus credit he did deploy a lot of cash to reduce mass personal financial destruction.Sure there was fraud, theft etc, completely normal with any emergency spending.According to public health. Our hospitals were overwhelmed with covid patients.Probably the same thing Ford said, we need to move forward.

well were they? the ICU stats seemed pretty horrific.I don't think they were fake. The LTC deaths were real.
there wre 4 privately funded pipelines ready to go when the moron came to power
he killed three and overpaid for the fourth because he had painted himself into a corner
like all things govt, a 4.5B pipeline turned into a 34 B taxpayer money pit
any you think this is an accomplishment
every thing he touches turns to shit, really expensive shit
energy east would have given Canada leverage over Trump
The moron killed that
he is unbelievably stupid

Yeah right a mere $10 B
what about the thousands of miles of pipeline ?
the Trudeau govt turned a 4.5 Billion short pipeline into a $34 Billion money pit
if it were not for Trudeau/ Quebec Energy east would have been built by private funds and we could apply energy leverage on Trump
Trudeau is an idiot
and you have no idea what you are blithering about
we already have a Strategic Oil Reserve -The Canadian Oil Sands- The 3rd largest reserve in the world
the problem is the idiot Trudeau never did and never will understand its Strategic importance
total and complete delusion
EVS credits are being canceled
EV mandates are going to be cancelled
Only the rich will be able to afford EVs as a woke status symbol
yawn

Agreed the Feds do the dealing not Smith. But what she is doing is undermining Canadian sovereignty by dancing with the Orange Hitler and given him leverage against Canada . Smith appeared on stage smirking and grinning with Tucker Carlson in. Alberta recently. and it is no coincidence that she was invited down to Florida and to the inauguration. Alberta through Smith, a known separatist will be the soft underbelly that Trump uses to manipulate Canada.
Due to the lack of attention that US lawmakers are paying to the potential horrendous damage to sectors of the US economy that Canadian and Mexican retaliatory tariffs will exact, it is probably the case that Trump will not carry out his threat anyway.
