I assume that all the people screaming about the “safety” of women in bathrooms because of the potential presence of trans women are now advocating for the elimination of all fraternities on every campus, right? Right?

Look at what happened at AHS with Athana Mentzelopoulos I think it’s entirely plausible that the UCP is putting pressure on Elections Alberta, with the implications of personal and professional consequences. And I think it’s a threat that‘s entirely credible, based on their past behavior

4 years ago, we found that half of Ontario municipalities opened their 2018 inaugural meetings with a prayer. On Monday, our latest report will show that dropped to 17% by 2022. That's still the most we've seen in any province, but it's an improvement. Watch this space for our full report on Sep 21

Starting about 3:32 in clauskellerman video: Things make more sense now. Cda walked out when U.S. again tried to control our resources , forcing Canada to rely on one trading client. #NeverAgain
Brian Mulroney's/Reagan NAFTA proportionality clause (Article 605) required Canada to maintain a fixed % of our oil, gas, and eletricity exports to the US, even if Canada faced severe domestic energy shortages. That made it problematic to sell to any other market other than U.S.

And IF Cdn production increased, Cda was obliged to sell that same % of increase to the US, again without being able to put that increase to other markets at higher prices. We were in essence, locked out of diversification.
It was in essence, an Export Guarantee to the U.S.: Canada could not cut its energy export share to the US below the average of the previous three years.

So no incentive to build a pipeline to the West or East Coast because we were bound by the proportionality clause.

Til 2018 & signing of NAFTA, our excess production was primarily promised to the U.S.

Trudeau and Freeland were able to remove the Proportionality Clause in 2018 CUSMA with Trump.
NOW Canada better able to sell oil, gas, electricity, liquified natural gas for better prices and diversify our trading partners.

After the 2018 deal, Canada realized it would raise investor confidence Cda moved to expand the Trans Mountain expansion, & next year in 2019 with a total capacity of approximately 890,000 barrels of oil per day. Almost all of that headed for Asian markets.
Now Canada is not OBLIGED to send our increased production to the US.
Now Canada has options to sell our oil and US can't control us as much.

Keystone pipeline directed towards the US may not be the one that's the most advantageous.
So - CUSMA isn't 'much the same as NAFTA'. Now we control who we sell to and aren't locked into to selling our increased production to only one buyer.
