I’m a Canadian that believes in “peace, order and good government.” I guess that makes me a radical leftist. #yeg

What would it cost to clean up Alberta’s oilpatch? “Cleaning up the Alberta oilpatch could cost an estimated $260 billion, internal regulatory documents warn.” -Energy Regulator (AER) in a presentation to a private audience in Calgary Quote from 2018.

100% of the 260 billion cost of cleaning up the tar sands is on the Alberta and Canadians taxpayers.

During elections I always make an effort to see politicians in person. In the last federal election I saw Mark Carney talk with a crowd of Edmontonians. He spoke from the back of a pickup truck. He was witty, plain spoken and smart. In every way he was impressive.

A traitor is defined by their actions. All of Smith’s actions favour the extreme monied class and especially wealthy Americans, MAGA American politicians and American owned businesses. Her actions tell us her dislike for Canada. Her friends tell us who she is and wants to be - American MAGA.

What if: If OpenAI’s revenue falls by 2%? “USA’s economy is one giant bet on AI, with seven tech companies representing more than a 1/3 of the S&P 500. The best way to ignite positive change, without hurting consumers, is to carry out an economic strike the tech CEOs can’t ignore.” #CancelTech

Edmonton is home to many new Canadians from around the world. “Alphonso Davies Born in a Ghanaian refugee camp, Davies' family found a new home in Edmonton. In 2018, a 17-year-old Davies was signed by Bayern Munich. "Phonzie" is now considered one of the best left-backs in the world.” -CBC News.

Smith and the UCP terrorize sane Albertans every day! On example: Edmonton elected 100% AB NDP and is continually punished for being “communist.”

Max Fawcett, National Observer. “A new oil pipeline, and especially one through northern British Columbia, is simply a non-starter“ Smith still needs to negotiate w/First Nations & BC Premier David Eby. The oil industry needs to invest in this high-cost growth project. & Tanker insurance $$$!

Cruelty is the point of the UCP. The bloody spectacle of the vulnerable is what their faith-based supporters seek. Smith’s nastiness is another distraction designed to consume the time & resources of sane Albertans. It allows the oil corps to continue to plunder Alberta with no consequences.

The actions of Smith and the UCP makes life in Alberta more difficult and expensive. Plus they download expense to municipalities and don’t pay their bills.
Meme outlines the 143 million dollars the UCP owes the city of Edmonton in unpaid taxes.

Smith’s actions tell us she is only interested in creating chaos, division and fear. She wants working class people to fight each other. Ask your self, why?

The USA maybe the wealthiest country in the world? Nah. The correct phrase would be: the USA has the most wealth people in the world and that they do not care about the poor, the working class or anyone else other than themselves. The wealth thrive in chaos.

Albertans are not all the same. The hard core, free-dumb, Alberta nut-bars are ALWAYS quacking about something & are the minority. These freaks give the corporate media, social media and Smith the drama they crave. Everyday I walk in and around YEGs core. Most days, most people are drama free.
