Our PM Carney is absolutely right. We have had this “free trade” agreement with the USA for many decades and it’s always the Americans who keep wanting to change it for their benefit. It’s time we Canadians woke up and smelled the coffee. We were slowly becoming Americanized thanks to our media 🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪

While O&G production in Alberta year after year except for the pandemic years you could never guess that from the Alberta government and the media. In a newscast Ottawa bashing and “grievance” comes first and the facts at the end. It gives me pause if these “journalists” actually read what the say

You just have to laugh at the words of Jimmy medal of freedom guy Jordan about “draining the swamp. Seems he was wading in it and couldn’t find the plug. Typical American. Just an observation

In my foggy memory diesel fuel was dirt cheap but we convinced governments that trucking was far better than trains and let’s convince people paying an extra $7000 for a diesel pickup truck was going to be a huge savings.Best sales pitch ever given by the API and the automakers.SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUPS

Well maybe I am wrong but it was white Christian capitalists who sold off land they didn’t own to immigrants for a good profit to make something of a new life in a province now called Alberta. Seems that some things never change in the insane asylum. Just an observation

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

In my life as an Albertan the only “grievance” we ever had with Ottawa was the Crow rate for the transportation of livestock and the final product shipping.That was resolved over 50 years ago. To be fair we did have a good health services with a collaboration of government and the medical fraternity

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

There is this illusion created by the Alberta government and the media that we Albertans “own” our O&G industry when we really don’t. As soon as oil or gas leaves the ground it is owned by the producers and enters the world marketplace at a price of whatever “traders” (Wall Street” determines.

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I have to laugh at Albertans and how easily they are manipulated. All the screaming and yelling about a pipeline. We build one and what changed? More jobs? More production? More Alberta prosperity? NONE OF THE ABOVE. But now we need more pipelines. The same old circle jerk. Now data centres next?

010

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Well call me stupid but I think a data Center is the “cloud” coming down to earth. The tech bros have taken away the individuals ability to store his own data, fed people the tech candy of cell phones, and eroded our abilities of privacy for the betterment of the tech bros and not society.

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

In my past as a Canadian and Albertan we used to have a PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE PARTY. The “ progressive” part was the attention to our social programs and our diverse cultures. The “conservative” part was our fiscal management of our money and resources. Seems we have NONE OF THE ABOVE right now

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

YAHOO!!! I received my referendum ballot in the mail. Time for me as a Canadian born and raised in Alberta to send the MAGA mutts my message. NO TO THE NINE AND WE ARE CANADIAN. Time for MAGA Smith to pack her bags and head off to Panama. The sooner the better in my book. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

So as I say we can not forecast people. We plan on a 25% absentee rate in civilization and then AC/DC roles into town. By noon of the day 50% gone. The next day by noon maybe 50% back in some kind of condition. ITS CALLED LIFE and you can never plan for the human condition. ITS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

So some say those patch workers make “big money” nothing can be further from the truth. Seems people forget the long hours away from home, living in cattle cars built by horse jump freaks.There is nothing glorious in working in the patch. The illusion of money. Just saying

010

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

I just want to say when I was managing projects in the patch we always had a “captive audience” and an absentee rate of less than 2%. When you have a project in “civilization” the absentee rate increases to 25%. WHY? Life impacts everything. All life changes when you have a normal life. Just a fact

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Personally speaking I think our Canadian PM Carney understands that the transition from bottle feeding to eating pablum to eating real food is going to have a few tantrums and resistance to the change especially with the “old guard”. Onward, upward and elbows up. 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Personally speaking it’s about fucking time we stopped kissing the Americans ass. Although we are 40+ years late our Canadian PM Carney is showing what being a Canadian really is. There is a great big world out there and we have finally joined it. AWESOME👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I find it ironic that we elect millionaires and billionaires and political parties funded by the same and expect them to serve the people??? Seems the definition of insanity to me. And you wonder why we are so fucked up?? Just an observation

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

In my mind there is only one reason why we have NOT had East/West pipelines and pursuing Asian and European markets in our Canadian past. AND IT WAS NOT OTTAWA. Everything South was Alberta energy policy for many decades. WHY?An energy company that has Canada behind its name doesn’t make it Canadian

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I find it ironic that in Alberta we have the Strait of Anthony Henday as it surrounds our refineries causing our fuel prices to skyrocket. It seems our oil comes out of the ground and then enters the the Wall Street made “world price” before it even gets to Strathcona county or even Reginas refinery

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

In my foggy memory in Alberta we used to build pipeline compressor packages including jet engines. We also had a jet engine repair depot to maintain them. Even donated the older versions to technical institutes for the kids to learn with. What a novel idea that we should open a jet engine repair

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I find it hard to understand why buying Canadian and especially local is such a hardship. To me it’s investing in ourselves as well as our economy. Even in the Alberta insane asylum we do produce very good products other than dinosaur blood. Just an observation 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

While the events of 9/11 were horrendous we never seem to take stock of the WHY. We do know the aftermath and the knee jerk reaction it caused in our world and not for the better. The same forces that created 9/11 are still existing and even worse today. Will we ever learn??? Just saying

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

In my foggy memory at one time the only real market for diesel were trains. So let’s get rid of trains, put more trucks on the road and put diesel engines in pickup trucks for an extra $7000 and tell consumers how much money they will save. Corporate marketing hard at work. It’s working well!!!!!

001

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Personally speaking as a Canadian after kissing the Americans ass for over 60+ years we finally grew a set of balls.They have never been our “friends”. Most have no idea where Canada even is. Funny how the Americans always exclude O&G, electricity and water. I say fuck them and bring the hammer down

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

It just blows my mind how people can’t even figure out that ANY GOVERNMENT is a SOCIAL CONSTRUCT. It’s sole function is to SERVE AND PROTECT ALL OF ITS CITIZENS. Humanities 101. Just saying 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪🇨🇦💪💪💪💪

One thing that we must remember. The USA is a military/industrial complex that always needs enemies or a war to function. Just a fact

In my foggy memory I recall walking the beaches of Lake Ontario with the stench of dead fish and a nearly totally polluted body of water. We worked our asses off for decades to clean up the lake and get rid of the pollution of industry on both sides of the border. And now we have the moron. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Well if you think about it for more than 30 seconds ALL ENERGY is metered when it crosses the border to the USA. Seems to me the feds have a good case for an Excise tax for exports. It would not impact DOMESTIC consumption. If Alberta is happy with $20 a barrel less hey great. WCS =WTI. Seems fair🇨🇦🇨🇦

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

I kind of laugh at how the media is like Pavlov’s dog. They slobber all over anything the taco man says. Very well trained for sure. Just throw the dogs a bone and they go nuts. And you wonder why we are so fucked up?

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

It seems odd to me that the USA is at war with us Canadians and of course is fighting an oil war around the world we even consider buying American military stuff and provide them with cheap oil and gas.Time for the Saab Grypens from a reliable ALLY I say. And energy is a weapon of war. Just a fact

011

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Even in the Alberta insane asylum you can buy your food stuffs produced in Canada and even ALBERTA with little effort.With better trade relations with other like minded countries we would need the USA like a hole in the head.Funny though in “cattle country” beef is a major investment along with fuel

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

I was in Scotland in 1974 when “first oil” came to Cruden Bay. I asked my uncle where is the natural gas. “Huh” They flared it off for 20 years for $billions. Never ask a Brit about energy. They love to piss it away

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

It always amazes me that we Canadians have more “smarts” when it comes to O&G but we still kiss the American ass. I guess things never really change. Kiss the ass that feeds you. Just my observation

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

There are some people who think that king Pete was some kind of hero for Alberta and Canada. I BEG TO DIFFER AS I WORKED MY ASS OFF TO GET HIM ELECTED. And then he sold us out. Just saying

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Don’t you just hate science? The more they dig up stuff the more the story book is full of shit. Seems must be better to live in some dream than face facts and reality. DUMB FUCKS WITH A “b”

So as I watch the commuter planes take off and land 50 + years ago we Albertans were talking hi speed rail. Seems we just decided to join Marty and go back to the future. At least Marty has a disease. We are just brain dead

I am not so sure in air travel these days but it used to be the marketing as soon as the wheels were up, got the peanuts and water unless paid for more until the wheels went down. A captured audience for a few hours. Capitalism hard at work

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

In my days of travel I always interfaced( big word) with the airline people including the airline dudes who welcomed you aboard their ship. The face of an airline. And the airlines shit on them, their biggest sales pitch? Or I am I fucked up? I think not.

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I often wonder when Canadians will realize the USA is fucked? There is a great big world out there of 8 billion people. And we kiss the Americans ass? That’s how pathetic we are? Bought and paid for by Americans and the media. YOU LAZY DUMB FUCKS

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Now as an Albertan who knows and worked with many Nefies. They are as honest as the day is long. The cork goes off the bottle and life begins. And believe me they will know when they are cranky. I often wonder how many of them still live in Alberta? An amazing people for sure. CANADIAN EH?

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I find it funny that the USA moron suddenly wants the excel pipeline for “needs” he doesn’t need. And we just play along. You just have to love this O&G game. Enjoy your day at the pumps you “suckers and losers”. Let the rape and pillage continue

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I have yet to see any political pundit or “expert” in the oil and gas industry say anything factual. They never seem to have mud waders or seen a project site. Never packed skids. Never slopped in the mud. Pie in the sky dreamers with shovels pretending to know something. BEEN THERE DONE THAT

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I worked hard to get that mutt LOUGHHEED elected on a platform of change. We Albertans changed for 4 years. And then we sold the farm. And king Pete sat on every board of the energy boys as his just reward. And his “free trade” just the same. Enjoy his mountain and park. He sold us

000

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Personally I don’t give a fuck if our PM Carney ever makes a deal. We Canadians have been fucked over for more than 40 + years with this “free trade” agreement which has never been “free” you can thank Mulroney and LOUGHHEED for that. Just saying as he sat on every energy board room after “retiring”

021

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I have to laugh at the “how to” shows. From Riley and Bob to the mega builds. Money no object and just spectator sport. Sweat equaty never in any equation. If only truth was told.

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I think after 40 + years of O&G propaganda it still hasn’t sunk in. WE ARE GETTING FUCKED. And now the baby Americans want the keystone project? Our oil? Why? We have international guys kissing our ass. All just a grand game. Some how our DIRTY OIL is a hot commodity. Go figure you dumb fucks

cdnhelp.bsky.social @cdnhelp.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I find it very entertaining when Canadian premiers get out the crayons and a map. ROCKET SCIENTISTS to be sure. I have very fond memories as an ALBERTAN when we told the federal government of the day to STICK IT UP YOUR ASS. And here we are today. I am sure most Canadians are doing drugs.
