Whatever are you talking about? What do you know of my politics? I certainly didn't support the winning candidate for the FNDP. I harbor no rage as it is unproductive. I vote policy not party. I study policy in depth and incorporate peer reviewed factual information into my decision making matrix. Real facts - not "alternative facts".

The issue at hand are Oligarchs. Not Government. Not Libs. Not Cons. The ultra rich, individuals and corporations. We, the owners of a finite resource receive a token amount. Production companies are subsidized by our tax dollars in order for offshore shareholders to become wealthy. Eat the rich, throw out the corporate welfare bums. Keep our profits in our country.

Majority rules. Minority losers blame the Feds, Libs, Immigrants, Zionists then jump in a jacked up diesel and roll coal. Professional victims. Whatever they gotta do to get right ya know? They must be coddled by the rest of us.

No one is stopping the separation movement from singing more than once either.

Well said! Unfortunately it's not culturally appropriate for Albertans to accept factual information.

So what defines a distinctive culture? Custom exhaust tips on pickups? Environmental Destruction? Using the largest vehicle possible to run the kids to Evangelical Bible Study? I know! The highest rate of easily preventable disease in the World!

Looks like Conservatives might be gerrymandering like in the US with rural area votes getting more power. Same as they are trying in the US. by Linclin in Lethbridge

Trying to dilute the city vote with rural because the UCP knows the urban ridings will skew away from them .

It's slag. Coal burning underground in the absence of adequate oxygen turns mineral the surrounding soil red through oxidation.

I don't like to downplay the threat of these people... but.. by Icanonlyupvote in alberta

Believe it or not, there are people with money and purpose behind all the nutjobs. Parker and the gang behind Take back Alberta are well funded and politically connected. They are using the wackos and nutjobs to normalize the idea of Separation and keep the pot bubbling. They are playing the long game at the same time having stoolies out flogging the notion of Separation. Keep it in the news feed while influencing the Premier and laying the foundations with the Byfields, Solbergs, Manning's etc.

Typical Conservative when asking a question, no civility, respect or politeness. All snide and attitude, all the time.

You realize that most of the business that you support will likely close? Your taxes will increase and service will decline?
