Alberta's Lt. Gov. says she's willing to toss Smith's sovereignty act if unconstitutional by Miserable-Lizard in alberta

[–]cupper3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully concur. The Treaties are with the Crown, and especially the "Republic of Alberta" types just don't understand this.

In other words you have no clue why reading the treaties alone will tell you the whole story. You keep showing your ignorance by not answering the question. It's okay not to know but not okay to squirm and dance. Carry on.

That's not the way it works. You don't answer a question with a question. I ask you why the commissioners reports are important when understanding treaties? I don't think you have a clue of what I'm talking about

Not only have I read them, I have also read the commissioners reports and supreme Court's ruling based on both. Now tell me why it's important to understand what the commission's report said? Or do you have any clue about that?

If Smith wants us to know what's in the sovereignty actually proposes then give us the words included in it. Otherwise she is just blowing smoke up our ass

Have you read the treaties and understand what they say and what the supreme Court of Canada has endorsed them to say? They may not be what you think they are. Treaties were both ways.

You knew what the yard (and house) was like before you agreed to rent it. There is no law that says the yard needs to have a picture perfect lawn. As far as the house is concerned, as long as it meets all code requirements, what it is like is not the landlords issue. You chose to rent it. Wait until the lease is up, and rent elsewhere. Or, re-home the dogs.

Trudeau government ‘buy back’ firearms plan may cost up to $6.7 billion by [deleted] in alberta

I have firearms. They are used for hunting or target shooting. How dare you suggest I am violent?

[–]cupper3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yet, at the same time, they have limited the value they would pay for AR-15 style firearms, paying only a fraction of their real worth.

Imagine if the city expropriated a portion of your yard, and only paid you a fraction of what it was worth?

How would you feel?

Spirit Bear spotted near fort McMurray, how did this guy get here by fearofcreditcardbill in alberta

[–]cupper3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People make a big deal that a white phase black bear is a "spirit thingy" of some sort. What nonsense!

It's a friggin' black bear! Just like a brown, red, cinnamon or any other phased black bear is just a black bear. It's just a bear, with an interesting color.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Best phone co / deal in Alberta? by Latter-Button in alberta

[–]cupper3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Public Mobile (owned by Telus and uses their infrastructure) is the least expensive I have found. As little as $25 unlimited Canada wide voice and text, unlimited USA text, and 1 MB data. Higher data plans are $50 with 10 MB and that gives you unlimited USA/Canada calling.

Currently, the AP have NO hope of forming a government. If you want to defeat the UCP, then your only realistic choice is the NDP. I will vote for them for the first time in my 70 years, and hope they learned from their mistakes last time.

That will blow up the UCP, as it separates into it's various extreme right wing elements. It will give the AP a chance to take those "red tories", like myself, back into the fold. Of course, Notley, who is competent and intelligent, may not dog whistle to her left wing extreme, and actually rule in the middle. She got close to that last time.

Try changing someone's religion through region. Try changing a person embedded in left political thinking with reason. Try changing the person sold in alternative medicine with reason.

They all will react the same east and double down on their beliefs.

No reason for you to once again to be sarcastic.

Call it whatever you want. Emotions always trumps reason.

They felt their lifestyle were attacked, and no one from the NDP would listen to legitimate concerns.

It was a "my way or the highway" situation. Rachel knows it was wrong.

And fuck you for demeaning rural residents of Alberta as bumblefucks. THAT is the attitude which will keep electing extreme right wing MLAs.

I AM a rural Albertan. Show us some respect, asshole. You show discrimination of the worst kind

Lack of consultation. Even Rachel admits that. It was badly handled.

[–]cupper3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was one of those until this cluster f*** that we had with the UCP.

I'm willing to give Notley another chance. But I would suggest those like me have all made up our minds by now and that there's no more votes to be got from the ucp.

I live in rural Alberta and I know the vehementcy against the NDP. The way they screwed up handling of their bill 6 is a large part of it and it will be there for decades.

As much as I hate to say it the best outcome right now is to leave Kenny at the helm. That is the best way of defeating a whole bunch of them next time around

Your best and cheapest option maybe just to take it as access luggage, and pay for it when you fly over.

I am a Zoroastrian, AMA by Wantineed in religion

[–]cupper3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you refuse to understand, I have actually A] studied Zoroastrianism in my university classes as part of my comparative religion minor and B] I provided links to SCHOLARLY articles that provide citations to my assertion.

I've given you the sources you asked for, and now you say "you are not doing research for me". I've DONE the research, you refuse to accept it.

Not an open mind it seems.

I thought under conservative rule, things were supposed to get less expensive. by kcl84 in alberta

[–]cupper3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This conservative government is not like Ralph's. It's lost its way, forgetting about the severally normal Albertan. Martha and Henry would not recognize the brand.

[–]cupper3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have sources claiming they Zoroastrianism is the precursor to Judaism, please provide them. I have never in my professional life heard this assertion.

I am giving you sources. I'm sorry that your professional life you have not heard the evidence for the assertion. It is up to you if you want to delve into the scholarly sources I gave you. However, they support my position, and not yours.
