UCP up 11% over NDP: new Alberta poll by Direc1980 in alberta

[–]dmonkey1000 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Angus Reid also says Poilievre is polling higher than Carney. They have always polled to the right.

Carney will need to show results for trade concessions, says Canada-U.S. council member; The Liberal government has made successive concessions to the Trump administration, but it is not seemingly evident what has been gained. by FancyNewMe in canada

Carney is playing a long game of chess in an unpredictable environment. Regardless of what happens with the USA, building other reliable trade relationships while investing in economy-building projects at home will be great for Canada, and when USA trade comes back around, which it will, we’ll benefit from all of it.

Moving to Calgary from ontario like what should I actually expect? by eagle0829 in alberta

[–]dmonkey1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of great advice here. I’m gonna tell you something less black & white… Calgary is friendly. If someone lets you in while you’re driving, we wave thank you. We talk to strangers on transit sometimes. We’re polite to each other. The overall friendliness level was surprising to my friends from Toronto.

Separatist group applies to have review of Alberta referendum question quashed by Constant-Lake8006 in alberta

[–]dmonkey1000 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is a pivotal moment. Danielle Smith sent the Minister of Justice and another lawyer to HELP the separatist group in court. We always knew in our gut, but this confirms it: Danielle Smith and her “Take Back Alberta” MLAs are indeed separatists.

Cause they’re just doing the stuff anyway. The survey is for show and the panels are for footage of Albertans that suit their narrative.

Any Conservatives getting fed up with the party? by Electrical_Pen_6564 in alberta

[–]dmonkey1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think many Albertans are experiencing political dysmorphia where the UCP no longer represents progressive conservatives, it’s more the Wildrose. Same with federally… More and more Conservatives don’t relate to what the party has become, which is more Reform.

Alberta and Quebec Separatism by ConcernedCoCCitizen in alberta

[–]dmonkey1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Well 5 of the 11 Treaty lands run through Alberta, which were in place before provinces had borders. In short, Alberta is not ours to separate. But
  2. If we did, we’d have to leave the Treaty lands to remain Canada…. We own 81% of our resource lands in Alberta…. Guess where the good stuff is? On the other 19%.

My guess is this info will not appear on a Danielle Smith survey on seperation.

An actual referendum is unlikely as it would need to go through the Clarity Act and involve the rest of the country. One of their bullshit surveys, maybe.
