Danielle Smith turns her back on Canada...

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."?

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 Scenario 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.

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'.

According to public health. Our hospitals were overwhelmed with covid patients.

well were they? the ICU stats seemed pretty horrific.I don't think they were fake. The LTC deaths were real.

 

[JohnLarue]

yeah.. like when Trudeau bought Alberta the pipeline through B.C.?

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

 

[JohnLarue]

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.

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

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.

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

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 .

yawn

 

[JohnLarue]

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.

you have no idea what you are taking about
again

 

[lomotil]

She is a dumb cunt, its up to the feds, and they will do what they need to. When a deal is eventually made, she will look like a dumb cunt, which she is.

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.

 

[csmitting]

You sound like a Trudeau apologist

 

[nottyboi]

Man you are not too bright, why would you need new pipelines? The reserve locations can be selected along existing pipes. Maybe they can even use the 1.2B pipe to nowhere in AB. Oilsands is hardly ready to use oil, and there is no guarantee that they can operate in an emergency.

As for EVs, they won't need tax incentives soon. Battery prices are plunging and they are much easier to build then ICE cars. As of now they are already at aboutthe same cost and battery prices are expected to drop another 50% in 2 years,.... GAME OVER FOR ICE. Also in China they have deployed 600KW charging That is the same rate as a gas pump GAME OVER.

Yeah Northern Gateway, lets load tankers with Tar and sail them on the coast of Nothern BC. 1 tanker accident and you wipe out the livelihoods of tens of thousands of indiginous people. Would Alberta accept the UNLIMITED LIABILITY for cleanup? Of course not. They don't even clean up their own abandoned wells that are spewing poison into the air. Good ol Uncle Trudooo had to pay for it. Maybe it was a way to keep more money in AB and get some Fed transfers. Poison the people so that the Liberal twit that is dumb enough to care about people and the environement will charge in and send AB billions. Well played!! INGENIOUS!!!

yeah every kid grows up dreaming of working in the freezing cold in a dangerous job full of toxic fumes in the middle of BUTTFUCK AB. I hear even Elon Musk wanted to be a oil rig worker, but when his dreams were shattered in a bust, he went on and started Paypal then he felt soo bitter about his stolen dreams of being an oil worker he started Tesla just to wipe out the oil industry so no more young men would face the disappointment he did.... THE END

I heard JT say we were better off then USA, and that is probably true in term of covid deaths, but that could be due to their obesity as well

speaking of not too bright
energy east was going to be required to provide eastern Canada with Western crude oil
so obviously the pipeline infrastructure is not in place for your silly assed "Strategic Oil Reserve"
god you are dense

and again, we already have a "Strategic Oil Reserve" its called the Canadian oil sands- the 3rd largest reserve in the world
but you get all excited about spend about your silly assed plans to spend other peoples money

you really do not have a clue what you talk about

more bullshit that follows the same bullshit that was used trying to promote wind and solar as an easy substitute for fossil fuels . that game is over
as predicted

30 years ago FF represented 82 % of world energy consumption, now FF are 80-81%
30 years of failed predictions and a trillion of govt money down the drain

EVS sales are going to max out below 20% market penetration
Trump is going to kill the credits & the mandates
The auto dealers are already complaining they can't sell EVs

you promote bullshit unrealistic fantasies

Well maybe its a good reason to build Energy east as well, but oil can also move by rail and part of the reseve can be built in the east and loaded by rail... any other dumb assed questions?

Even if people don't buy EVs they will buy PHEVS and PHEVS will allow most people to reduce their oil consumption by 80-90%

 

[JohnLarue]

meanwhile you wanted to transport 100 MM barrels thousands of kilometers across the country to a completely redundant "Strategic Oil Reserve"
you did give a shit about indigenous folk then and you do not give a shit about them now

the odd thing about the loonie left is if you let them blither enough they will expose their own hypocrisy
and boy o boy, you do blither

lets load tankers rail cars with Tar and sail drive them on the coast of Nothern BC . all over the country . 1 tanker accident and you wipe out the livelihoods of tens of thousands of indiginous people. Would Alberta Nottboi accept the UNLIMITED LIABILITY for cleanup?

you are you own worse enemy

The oil is already moving 7x24x356. Are you drunk? you seem even more confused then normal. Any moron knows a land oil spill is typically less harmful then a sea oil spill and much easiler to remediate. Of course rivers and lakes can be problematic. Also pipelines are monitored and can be isolated when thet leak. Tankers well, there is often no mitigation in an accident on the open seas. Filling of the reserve if done by rail, will be a slow process and not many movements of the oil will happen.
