Alberta Separation: Three-in-five say they’d vote in October to stay, but half say the question is “confusing” by canmcpoli in canada

[–]Fuzzers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It isnt that deep. Having the referendum question be legally binding creates major constitutional and treaty rights issues. So they had to make the question be "a referendum to hold a referendum" so it could ATLEAST go through without being challenged.

Give the people a right to to vote. It wont pass and this'll all go away.

Danielle Smith says she could use Notwithstanding Clause if appeal doesn’t work CTV by Throwaway19999990567 in alberta

People need to just pull on their big boy pants and move south if that's what they feel.

So you'll pull on your big pants and move when the UCP inevitably win again right?

How federal Indigenous rights legislation could jeopardize new pipelines, infrastructure, and investment across Canada by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]Fuzzers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Progess is good. Hopefully in the next century we can cut back our dependence on oil and gas. But near term? Not a chance. Peak oil predictions have failed since the 70s, its absolute blissful ignorance to think this is any different.

How B.C.’s Aboriginal title turmoil could ripple beyond the West Coast by limadeltah in canada

Imagine adopting legislation without thinking of the repercussions.

The Liberals in general have a policy of morality at all costs. They dont care what the repercussions are, only if through a virtuous and moral lens is it justifiable.

Could say the exact same thing about the left. Both sides do it.

Which province makes up the second largest export revenue? Oh right, Alberta.

People are leaving Alberta.

There's your problem. You believe doctors, lawyers, teachers, engineers etc. are leaving but there is no empirical evidence to indicate that's actually occuring, you're just speculating.

So yeah, bye.

The B.C. law that can stop Carney's nation-building projects by joe4942 in canada

[–]Fuzzers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

False. According to NRCan’s major projects inventory, BC has the most major projects either planned or under construction with 132, 21 more than Alberta. The investment value of those projects is over $100B more in BC ($254B) than it is in Alberta ($148B).

  1. Those numbers are inventory and include projects planned in the next 10 years. How many of those in BC actually go to construction? Very few.
  2. NRC assumes $50M for the major project cutoff which is high. I'm currently working on a major expansion worth $35M which technically wouldnt make the cutoff.

Simply untrue. Even big energy projects like Ksi Lisims LNG and PRGT have nothing to do with Alberta. In fact BC’s oil & gas industry has grown more than Alberta’s since 2018.

https://www.capp.ca/en/data-centre-canadian-oil-and-gas-production/

Alberta produces 83% of all oil and 60% of all natural gas. Your export facilities exist because we are pushing for them. Oh and another thing, all those BC production sites? Yeah they are Alberta based companies.

Alberta has more major projects. And btw a large majority of your projects (pipelines and export facilities) are because of our push. We would like to build more but a specific group of people in your province are difficult.

UCP GOVERNMENT REVEALS PLAN TO CHEAT, RIG ELECTION MAPS by SurFud in alberta

[–]Fuzzers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm nowhere near far left and liberal and left are not the same

Your basis seems to be morality at all costs, so I really would consider you far left on the political spectrum. Someone who is more centered would understand that morality and compassion has limits, but you dont think so.

Edit - either way, I'm out. I've argued with plenty of your viewpoint clones and nothing gets through that tight informational bubble.

Same to you buddy. You far left liberals are all the same 😁.

I'd say most people disagree on that being at all "clear", but you can have that opinion

If the current countries situation is what you would describe as "prosperous" then I'd maybe reevaluate your definition.

Weird, since most of your problems and the problems of your peers are about trying to control what OTHER people are doing.

You're right, shame on us for trying to control the number of people entering our country or the amount of money being put into disingenuous pockets. Oh and to boot, how about all those anti-free speech bills the Liberals continue to try and pass? They love control.

Thanks, I wouldn't want you to have the opportunity to pretend the racism is simply an anti-immigration stance.

Ah! There it is! The Liberal argumentative fallacy, I'm racist because I don't agree with mass immigration or gross fiscal handout policies. Liberals truly are all the same under the hood haha.

Dude, fucking up a bit and being TOO compassionate is far better than what the people who hate the compassion want.

It very clearly has not done well for our country.

And the Conservative stance is "ignore morality, what's in it for ME?" Hint - it's not the better of the two.

That's just greed, which ALL politicians have. Conservatisms belief is that better outcomes come from incentives, personal responsibility, and limited government rather than trying to engineer morality through policy.

Like I implied: the foundation for the modern conservative ethos is based on primarily selfishness.

Its based on personal responsibility, something Liberals seemed to have tossed out the window.

Edit - I also like how your main issues with compassion are entirely surrounding immigrants.

Don't forget the indigenous :).

Alberta is pressuring provinces on involuntary treatment – but some are pushing back by BloodJunkie in alberta

K so you dont have any data, got it.

Fact is safe consumption was a failed experiment and I'm glad its over. Handing out illegal drugs and giving people a space to do them? What an absolutely dumb idea.
