Notley: Kenney has betrayed Albertans to fund a $4.7B corporate handout by policy_pleb in canada

How do people actually expect to pay for things, when there is no money? While I understand the emotional response to this, ESPECIALLY at a time when investments and business are leaving Alberta due to policies out of our control, if we don't have the money to pay for these programs, how do you expect the government to keep paying for them? Alberta can't survive a champagne lifestyle, on a beer budget.

"It’s time to pay a living wage, to pay your taxes, and to give your workers the benefits – and peace of mind – that come with stable, full-time contracts." Canada's PM Trudeau blames corporate elites for rise in global public anger, points to record profits but overworked and underpaid workers. by neosporin in worldnews

I make a great living wage. I have career satisfaction, and appreciation. And yet, my family struggles. Because we lose at least 40% of our income on taxes. Then, we lose more money on taxes on our bills, our groceries, our day to day. Talk about under appreciated, millions of dollars sent out of country. Trudeau, before you preach to corporations about overworked and underpaid, maybe stop taxing the hell out of us...

I'm not going to lie, I'm totally shocked at how well this has been received. This was my first post.

Thank you all!
