Price of gas is one thing, but the carbon tax is such a minor amount in comparison to everything else. It's a good sound bite and morons believe it has a bigger impact than it does. I don't believe they are super effective at actually addressing CO2 pollution, but it's a pretty negligible amount in comparison to the other rising prices happening out there.

Oh no? You think we can't adapt as a species? When the population is billions and still climbing fast millions isn't that significant. The world is always in Flux. The most adaptable species survive and we just happen to be pretty good at adapting. Especially when we possess the brains and opposable thumbs to modify the environment to suit our needs.

Ummmm no... I would argue that their products are a large reason we see such a large population of humans on the planet. We as a species have thrived because of the cheap, reliable, easily transportable energy that fossil fuels have given us. Climate change will **** up lots of other species but humans are a resilient bunch. We as a species will get through just fine. I think you are backwards there too. Oil and gas hired the cigarette propagandists to work for them.

**** gas prices, the cost of power bills in Alberta is skyrocketing.... this is what conservatives do. Corporations get profits and we get stuck with bigger bills. It's not a tax hut higher utilities, higher insurance... God know what else will be higher. But oh yeah it's the pennies on a tank of gas affecting my bottom line.

as it was, as it is, as it ever shall be

And now think of the provincial government who has jurisdiction over natural resources and the reaction there.... you want socialized oil and gas it's gotta be a provincial crown Corp.

Nationalize a natural resource.... do you want to rip the country apart? Cause you start so brazenly stepping into provincial jurisdictions that is what will happen.

It's hard to judge receivers in winnipeg since until last season they were just an afterthought in the game plan to Harris. We saw a more qb focused game plan and suddenly Lawler led the league and Bailey emerged and demski looks pretty damned solid...

Do you think they aren't doing that? Walters is the most proactive gm out there by far and he always brings guys in.

Oh I have no doubts he believes that's actually a viable thing. Guy just lies all the time so it fits his MO.

Hmm that might make China irate.

The way that Peter McKay was rejected in the last leadership selection and how otoole was booted for trying to be moderate after winning tells me that the right is fully in charge.

Rule of acquisition #34, war is good for business.

This is exact how otoole won. He pondered to the right wing and once the hard right so-cons dropped out their votes went to otoole.

Republicans at this point are entirely Russian assets.

Yeah never a doubt in my mind who got to be 97

I remember a lot of people wrote walls off purely based on size. He was such a solid player though. Not as flashy as some other guys but rock solid.

How many pipelines got built under Harper? Sure they made a bunch approvals but there was nothing built then either. The time to start building pipelines isn't now, it was 20 years ago.

He has calendars though! And think of PJ... and Squee... and Donkey Dong Doug...

for 99 I definitely thought of Wayne Weathers first... doing the ******* championship belt thing.

not realising that failing so hard as a conservative premier in Alberta that they give you the boot means what the **** chance do you even have federally? No Kenney gets the old heave ho from the UCP I reckon that's the end of his political career.

Lowering the bar is what kenney does best

Sickens me how tied to the Republicans assholes down south some of the current conservatives in Canada are. Rotten to the core.

Cancelling a country that is invading another country at the moment unprovoked? Sounds good to me! GOP probably worried their money is going to dry up.

Putin bet the farm on the rest of the world not caring and Ukraine just rolling over. Now that those things haven't happened I wonder just how crazy he actually is... will he slink away with his tail tucked or double down on a mistake...
