What the **** is wrong with them ? Why do they take it so personally when one national party loses over another ? Why do they blame the Liberal party when oil prices dive ? Why don't they see where things are going with oil & gas ?
Now they're talking separatism ? We blew $4.5B on a pipeline for some reason...
I'm going to start calling them the Quebec of the west...
Alberta's going to go down fighting.
They've been trashing the rest of Canada for so long, nobody cares.
Yank all the subsidies out of fossil fuels and put them in renewables.
No bailouts.
**** Alberta.
There. Now I'm there ... behaving as badly as they do. Lol
I feel sorry for the oil workers, who dropped out of high school and into high paying jobs. The real world doesn't work that way. Now the industry is dying while the oil bosses and Alberta government keep lying, telling them it's Trudeau or the East that's to blame. But it's just Alberta and the oil companies that are to blame for failing to plan, failing to diversify, failing to care about their workers, filling their uneducated workers heads with devious propaganda and outright lies, sucking every last drop of labour out of them and then kicking them to the curb.
If I say "
**** Alberta", I mean those devious leaders in the oil industry and government, not the workers.
Bail out the workers, but not the industry.
Educate, retrain, redeploy into renewables and energy retrofitting across the country.
Alberta employed a lot of Canadians, not just Albertans.
Give back, give Alberta workers some love, and some new jobs.
And maybe some travel experience to get to know Canada. : )
