It seems the liberal plan is to overwhelm Canadians with insane spending decisions, outrageous taxation, climate change stupidity and corruption on the all levels. And you know what they started this under Trudeau with scandal after scandal after scandal till it was all meaningless Kearney is as bad or worse and it's working. As a n Albertan and once proud Canadian I've had my fill. I just want to get out of the mess that is Canada and start worrying about my own backyard a little bit.
Good and valid points. Follow the money! Carney, and all his cronies, along with Brookfield and all its subsidiaries are closely linked. We need investigative journalism - on steroids to expose this rot before it's too late. Carney is a scam and taking the country for a ride for personal ego and gain in my opinion.
I don’t listen to CBC. I know AB like the back of my hand. Lived there for a lot of years. Rural and Edmonton. Lots of relatives all over the Province. If I want accurate info I get it. Brian Lilley is not a good source of info. All hat no cattle. You are dead wrong on Smith. You are also in for a big surprise come the vote.
And hopefully after Albertans vote to stay in Canada you’ll move to the US. Then you can come up with a new slogan. Instead of “backyard” try this one from AB - don’t shit in your drinking water.
"hopefully" is a fleeting fantasy. When Albertan's realized that Lukaszuk's idiotic "stay in canada" petition was actually a vote on separation they quickly made sure he had all the signatures he needed. A no vote will mean separation and now Lukaszuk doesn't want to present the petition as it will probably result in the separation vote he wanted to stop. I used love canada and I worried when Quebec voted to separate. Today I'll help pack their bags. I am exhausted by the scandals, corruption, mismanagement, inflation, immigration, taxation, government borrowing money to send that money to the world, federal interference in Alberta's business, the attack on out economy and the lying day after day to the good people of Canada. If you feel Canada is worth fighting for and go ahead I'm not stopping you. But as a taxpayer of Canada I'm ready to fire Canada just like I would fire any contractor that I'm paying for. I give up! The corruption and people stupid enough to vote for the liberals have won I no longer feel that Canada is rescuable and that is sad. But so many people today pay so very little attention to what is actually going on. People think the liberals are protecting them and yet they just listed the Canada pension plan in the asset column of the budget. While other parts of Canada can't see it here in Alberta we understand very clearly that Canada is a millstone around her neck and our future lies outside of Canada.
Interesting. Your Premier is the second most corrupt politician in North America. And it seems some in AB want to sign on to the most corrupt politician in North America. Go figure. Cut out the middle man. Move to the States.
Paul, you have no idea what you’re talking about. Premier Smith is all in for Alberta, something Ford is not. You need to read Lilley’s post more often and stop listening to the CBC to get your “news”. I’m 100% behind Smith.
What is your problem? You give a typical left response the "just leave". It is childish, Albertans are Canadians, they are tired of sitting on enormous wealth and not having a government willing to do anything with it. If you cannot or simply refuse the be objective or honest (with yourself) please don't bother to post your hate.
I’m not the one advocating for separation. I’m also not openly advocating for joining the States. What is childish is the constant whining. In fact most Canadians are sick of it. When Canadians built a pipeline for oil to the Pacific, you are still whining. Whine, whine, whine. After Albertans vote to be Canadians it would be my hope that you would either shut up or leave. The reason a Prince Rupert pipeline will not be built is because Canadians in BC are tired of your whining. I’m tired of Smith using federal money and blowing it on Tylenol and stripping benefits intended for disabled Canadians.
Election is irrelevant until the people have decided to take control of our resources for the good of the country. Leadership of the past 60 years or so put us in our current situation. China on one shore, US self interest on the other make us the modern Ukraine and ripe for plunder. I truly believe Federalism is dead and Canada would be better served as a Republic of provinces.
We need equal rights amongst the provinces, EEE senate. It will never happen, imho Canada will continue its downward spiral and eventually be absorbed in bits and pieces by the US.
Agree. Freedom fighters, Canadian patriots, wake up, rise up, unite, train, plan, organize... revolt, ...this is beyond serious. We need money, weapons', a plan....i wish i was rich, i would pay for it myself, but sadly i am not. We are under attack daily from govts.......loss of rights, censorship, control.....Why? kebec - Ottawa, kebek, Ottawa, the country.... $$. They control it all. All planned. “First quebec, and Ottawa and then the entire country…” ‘french power..." PET $$, They are revising, eliminating our BNA history all over the country as they rename, remove all things English, Scottish. Election fraud? YES, guaranteed. Why? Simple, they lie about everything. Welcome to Marxist - commie Canada where your vote is meaningless. Why? Bigoted = Socialist = marixst = commie = kebec runs the nation. This IS the problem, and No party, NO ‘leader’ will touch it. ‘Cons’ Poliver, Ford ?...nothing, not a word. “First quebec, and Ottawa and then the entire country…” ‘french power..." PET. $ Seriously, how do we get these lying, crooked, corrupt greedy franco - metis bigots out of Ottawa, Queens Park...? We have no-one to vote for. Liberal, Tory, same old story. Stop all immigration now. Repeal the commie – kebek charter. Deport now. Kick kebek out = Fix Canada. Or break up Canada. Anybody, somebody? HELP! The commie - fascist takeover of Canada and when it began....proof – context- https://beforeitsnews.com/power-elite/2012/01/canada-how-the-communists-took-control-1637973.html Rise up or it will just get worse.
We have the power already, always did. Simply shut down the tax flow. Strangle their ability to burn cash by debt. The main problem is willpower and a new leadership candidate. I would like to see a taxpayer union of some sort.
The question always left begged is: What does Carney actually want to achieve and who are the influencers that got him where he is and what do they want? (hint - he comes from the international and central banking industry otherwise known [since the '07 '08 crash) - as Banksters. (see Edward G. Griffin's "The Creature of Jeckyl Island" to start).
I think the liberals are going to try for a majority. They've probably armed themselves with lots of fingers pointing to Trump, and they'll probably try to draw parallels between Poilievre and Trump. I hope you have lots of material to remind people who ACTUALLY messed up this country. FYI, the reason Trump is president in the first place is because his opponent's advisors knew that Americans would elect a dementia patient if they used "Orange Man Bad" as a strategy. Conservatives in Canada are about merit, and the international banker has a hard time with a balance sheet!
For what it is worth, I live among Boomers and it it hard to have any kind of a discussion about Canadian politics. They segue to how much they hate Donald Trump and they see Carney as the anti-Trump. Their pensions are secure so facts don't matter.
I wonder if anything would change this?
That, by the way, is why I think that the Conservatives would be wise to put off an election. They need to get a handle on how to deal constructively with that kind of thing.
Maybe this will help. The Liberals are in the process of revamping Canada’s Social Services departments. “BDM Canada" most commonly refers to the Benefits Delivery Modernization Programme, a large-scale IT initiative led by Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) to upgrade the systems for delivering federal benefits like Old Age Security (OAS), Employment Insurance (EI), and the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). They thought by simply giving it a new acronym (BDM) that we wouldn’t notice. And of course it’s all voluntary unless you don’t sign up for the Digital ID. That’s when you stop getting your pension cheque, social security or veterans benefits. Carney knows nothing about politics, but he’s a strategic assassin when it comes to implementing his Agenda. Target the most vulnerable among us to ensure no resistance. For the last 10 years most Canadians were asleep at the wheel and a lot still are. I liken it to a sinking ship where half the passengers are clinging desperately to the railing while refusing the helping hands from the lifeboats.
Sure. Losing their pension will do it. Point out the law is on the books to confiscate their money if banks are in distress like they are going to be when the economy fails. Cypress was a test run, the law is the same here as well. Our money is a bank asset unless you have it in your pocket.
They will reply that Carney is a banker and would know how to protect them. That's one of only two things they know about him. The other is that he will largely leave the current system in place, no big changes, and nothing is really done. So Trump can be blamed for everything.
An election will not matter. Canada is a 2 party state, just passing the baton back and forth while metis - franco kebec laughs at us. $ kebec $ Where is all the money going? Who runs the country, Ottawa? $ KEBEK $ Mass immigration, massive govt growth, debt...100s of billions stolen out of Alberta and Sask., BC, Ont. since the 1960s, 70s. Equalization (kebek takes over 50% every single year) became entrenched in his commie charter = kebek communist Pierre Trudeaus constitution of 1982. Since then, 25 years of Liberal govts have made things worse. 18 years of 'Conservative' govts, the exact same thing. Kebeks Charter = 10s of billions stolen out of Ottawa yearly and funneled into quebec and other metis (they are not french) – towns and companies, all across the country every year, all disguised as grants, subsides, equalization, transfers, bilingualism (code for french) – only outside quebec while kebec bans our language, history = bills 22, 178, 101, 96. Multiculturalism (only outside kebec), massive government growth, control, censorship, surveillance, taxes and debt. Canada now just liberals masquerading as conservatives, the rest, communists masquerading as liberals. ’French power’ in all provinces.

Floor crossing without calling a by election to allow your constituents to decide, is called treason. No one likes or trusts a traitor, his new masters just want his seat. In essence, he will be kept in an irrelevant position by his new masters. Next election he be permanently retired, if he does not take the initiative himself before.
Paul......that is an ignorant statement. Terry was making an observation and posed an intelligent question. Why don't you just Answer his question, unless indeed you do not have enough background knowledge....
Mr. Donison stopped his commentary too soon. As I recall, after Clark's government fell, Allan MacEachern, the new finance minister, essentially walked across the floor, asked John Crosbie for a copy of his budget (the one that just got defeated) and presented it as the new budget.
I know it didn't happen quite that way, however, the differences between MacEachern's and Crosbie's budgets were inconsequential.

Enormous wealth? You sell oil for less than market value and with declining oil prices, the oil is close to the break even point.

Carney and the Liberals want to run things. They want more bureaucracy, more laws and more federal control. The exact opposite of what is needed.
The question always left begged is: What does Carney actually want to achieve and who are the influencers that got him where he is and what do they want?
