Listen, Harper had 10 years. He was "poised". Trudeau took over and built a west-coast pipeline through sheer determination with the same obstacles Harper had.

Did you intend the word "rhetorical" or did you intend "historical"? The two convey very different messages.

Yup. We're just as hard-working as everyone else in Canada. We're not special. We're just lucky, and we have a class of politicians dedicated to telling us that it's actually a sign of virtue.

In addition, projects like the Labrador trough and other electricity intensive projects creates a higher domestic demand for electricity which in turn will increase energy costs to US and provide a lucrative domestic investment climate because of cheaper Canadian electricity.

Just a thought. US aggression started with the completion of TMX. No more discounted oil because we have options. Talk of additional tidewater capacity set them on path to punishing Canada. They now want Keystone XL to keep Canada’s reliance on US market. They fear the loss of oil dominance.

I'll tell you one thing. Government by referendum is not leadership. It's an abdication of leadership. The cowardice of assigning decisions to best campaigners without stating your own position, leads to the question of "Why did AB elect UCP to lead the province?"

You should also read David Orchard's Fight For Canada. I thought it would be dry but it pulls you in and gives you a history of Canada's continuous Fight against being pulled into the US or asserting it's kown strengths while relenting to US pressures.

If this is true, it fills in what i was failing to understand on this agreement. It still feels like blatant theft and freeloading from the USA. You sign a deal, Canada spends the money, then USA dishonorably & unilaterally changes the terms of that deal. Trump is corrupt AF.

Canada is sharing half of the bridge's operating *profits*, not revenues. And guess what: the operating profits in the early years of a new toll bridge aren't going to be very significant, since most of the revenues will be attached to paying down its costs. Kenney knows this, of course.

Ontario is chasing a nuclear fantasy when lower-cost renewables and storage would save the province billions. Alberta is doing the same with natural gas. At some point, Conservative governments have to let the market speak here -- and listen. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/06/30/o...

Ontario’s expensive nuclear fantasy will cost the province dearly

Doug Ford's government is betting big on nuclear energy. Danielle Smith's government prefers natural gas. Neither seems to want to do the actual conservative thing: letting the market decide.

Just complete nonsense. The federal NDP and Bloc Quebecois are not "fringe parties" -- they win dozens of seats every election. The Alberta separatists have never won a single one federally, and only one at the provincial level. And yet, the premier is allowing them to dictate her entire agenda.

As to "strangling" Alberta's economy? Again: it was the collapse in global energy prices that did the damage. The federal government bought and built the single most important infrastructure project in Alberta's history -- one that immediately raised the profits of its oil sector.
