yabut, surely you know that Alberta knowingly, willingly, and repeatedly takes known risks in funding public services with volatile resource revenues. Riddle me this member kimmy/Alberta: for all the year-upon-year multi-decadal blathering concerns acknowledging the need for Alberta to diversify its economy, how's that been working out, hey!
can ya help a bro understand just what is the so-called problem/and where it lies? I mean, c'mon... look at historical Alberta production numbers - and, by the by, as I read, the so-called glut has been/is being addressed. So, other than that price differential thingee, where's the beef exactly - particularly when rail-by-oil movement has been huuuge?
speaking of that rail-by-oil, even as a temporary "stop-gap" measure, how does Alberta's UCP Premier Kenney rationalize his promise to cancel the purchase/lease contracts for 4000+ rail cars... an action taken by the former Alberta NDP government? By the by, the waldo highlighted "bitcrude" transfer previously in another thread - somehow, Alberta's Energy Minister seems to raise its profile but Alberta Premier Kenney won't mention anything about production numbers... or rail transfers - cause that just gets in the way of his SepartistTrolling agenda - yes?
where's the beef member kimmy - why all the claimed job losses? By the by, is there another type of... glut... when over 300 companies are trying/wanting to produce oil in Alberta?
And we're subsidizing them to do so.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be profitable.
Alberta doesn't get to
**** on the rest of Canada without getting some uncomfortable truths spoken back to them.
