Big tough oil men turn into limpwristed traitors who knuckle under when Trump calls to them. Fucking embarrassing.
Nationalize the oil already. Get the foreign corporations and their brain dead lackeys out.
Jeez, I thought my premier was bad (Ford), but to think that she’s not just corrupt and stupid, but openly being hostile to fellow Canadians during this moment of crisis.
Albertans needs to have a hard look at how much money the oil barons are stealing from them and think about whether it’s worth letting someone so selfish to lead them. The fact that the richest province in the country has one of the lowest public spending and lowest wages is something to to really think about.
She’s a fucking traitor.
To choose this level of disunity given what is going on is staggering.
Do we need to boycott Alberta too?
BC should put a toll on the million barrels of oil Alberta pipes through BC every day. You want our coast? We have a list of demands…
Please don’t. Help us get her out instead.
Right. So what I’m reading from this is that she wants Alberta to be Crimea. The US will come to “free” Alberta and leave the rest of us alone for a few years.
They speak American there anyway. They earn for the american world
All I heard was:
No Team Canada approach unless you make me Team leader! Waaaaaah!
I hope some of these demands are a starting point for serious adult discussions. It reads to me like Danielle wants to support Carney, but she’d be selling out to her base if she didn’t press all these issues. She’s tough, but she’s also 100% Canadian. The best path for Canada will always be somewhere in the middle.
IS she 100% Candadian I didnt’ notice with how much time she has spent in America lately.
She is NOT a 100% Canadian, she is a fucking traitor who would sell us out in a second!
Like most if not all conservative they play tough but all of them fucking traitor without moral
Alberta can’t dictate the construction of pipelines and destruction of habitats on BC. She’s 100% Calgary Oil Baron - even within her province there’s a lot of push back against energy dependence and other provinces don’t want to subsidize AB’s economy with our future.
She’s 100% Calgary Oil Baron
She’s not even that much.
She’s 100% “Alberta will be the 51st state.” And always has been.
Smith hasn’t been willing to have a ‘serious adult conversation’ in her life. She’s a western separatist, anti-vaxx, transphobic conspiracy theorist. She makes Pierre Poilievre look mature and responsible.
And I’ll say it again, just to be clear: She is a western separatist.
She is not 100% Canadian. She’s a traitor to the country in every possible way.
I guess I gave her way too much credit. This thread has been enlighting. Thanks everyone!
I can promise you, she’s not 100% Canadian. I wrote my fucking MLA about the tariffs and was told to essentially fuck off.
I think it’s time to make Alberta a territory.
What unity does Ms Smith uphold now that she could take away? I know only brief moments when her party hasn’t been part of the problem, and specifically part of the problem by acting against the best interests of the country over and over.
So, derangement. Gotcha.
What a shriveled, dried up clit of a human being.
As an Albertan, I fail to see see what leverage she thinks she has here. Our province consistently votes conservative regardless of how many bones the Liberals are throwing us (ex, buying a pipeline to ensure it gets constructed when the owner backs out) or how much the Conservatives ignore us.
Leaving Canada to either form an independent nation or join the US are both wildly unpopular, and there’s nothing she can say that’ll drum up enough support for either to occur. If she decides to “turn off the taps,” her O&G overlords will punish her.
Like many of the dipshits making good money with little to no education in this province, she has a wildly inflated sense of our importance and value.
I was thinking it was going to be some crazy wack a doodle things but the first few items I could understand, but then we got into the crazy wack a doodle things.
I really hope CSIS can do something more than slap her wrists.
The tone of this is disgusting from Smith. God I am so fucking sick of conservatives. Every demand is just climate change horseshit that wont help Canada. But I think the PM should probably agree to many of these. We should probably build pipelines, and lift the tanker ban in B.C. Bring back plastic bags and plastic straws because conservatives are actual fucking children who cant compromise on basic shit like that without shitting their pants. The net-zero car mandate can be removed because its just a virtue signal anyways and people will shift to EV’s naturally, because they are just way better in every conceivable way. Ignore the rest of the demands. This will give them a win, they can stick their pacifiers back into their mouths, and we can handle the crisis we are dealing with now. Once the political situation is stabilized we can get back to work on plastics and climate change etc. But Smith is a fucking traitor and needs to go eventually.
I think nothing actually pisses me off more then the Albertan oil dudes who are constantly bitching and complaining about how they are so mistreated. I lived in Edmonton for 2 years and met a lot of oil patch folks. And I have a few friends of friends who work there. Every single one, without exception, is ROLLING in fucking money that they don’t know what to do with. They buy themselves a big truck that they don’t even use most of the time because they fly to fucking work (company pays for plane tickets) they buy themselves a condo, and they go to country bars every weekend and blow 100’s of dollars on booze and strippers and blow. Give me a fucking break acting like your this poor oppressed people because the rest of Canada wanted to lead by example in fighting climate change and keeping plastics out of the environment. Fuck me. A lot of our environmental stuff can be reasonably disagreed with. I am a builder and personally I think a lot of the step code in new homes is pretty impractical and a bit green-washy. We have added a shitload of extra costs to homes in plastics and tapes and insulation and labor making homes slightly more efficient, by just a few %, when the manufacturing of all that material far outweighs the savings in energy. However, I don’t feel the need to tear the country apart over it. I accept that I will eat some extra costs in this stuff and make slightly less, but overall, its still pretty awesome to be a builder and live in Canada. Maybe ill try to make arguments to local politicians, or vote for the changes I want to see. Threatening unity in Canada during this moment in time is fucking unforgivable.
Please don’t bring back plastic bags. Seeing those bags stuck way up high in trees always makes me sad. Paper bags are fine.
-Signed, someone who can never fucking remember to bring a reusable bag into the store
This may or may not help you, but what I do is: store my reusable bags with my shoes, so every time I reach for a pair of shoes before I leave the house, I could also grab a bag.
I gotta get the bags into the store instead of leaving them in the car. I don’t go into stores enough to make it a habit.
I hear you. I don’t go to stores often either nowadays. Just to get my weekly groceries and every 2-3 weeks, I’d go to Home Hardware or Canadian Tire.
What rapper bags bro? It’s cotton bags everywhere. I’d rather have biodegradable plastic
No thanks less microplastics.
Cotton degrades, plastic just keeps getting smaller for a few centuries until it finally breaks down. And most of those bags are just non disposable plastic.
You think’cotton" bags are 100% pure no-plastic cotton? Try burning one and see if there’s no plastic.
You can get 100% cotton items, probably even bags if you look hard enough, but you’re right, most cotton items are a cotton synthetic blend.
She’s been sucking MAGA dick for so long it’s scrambled her brain. I can’t believe people voted for this traitorous loser.
I got banned for saying this on Ribbit.
Doesn’t surprise me - I got a lifetime IP ban for saying “Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell”
It’s probably the lead and other toxins in the water. Basically brain worm.
Look if she’s that dumb, let her deal with tariffs on her own. Let her take the brunt of it all until she stops being a goddamn donut.
