      I thought “conservatives” were supposed to be conservative? This really goes against their whole globalist hate thing. They’re literally doing shit they said they wouldn’t do.

    Ben Shapiro said he would put our prime minister into a work camp after they invaded and subjugated us.

    He is a Jewish orthodox maga fascist.

      Funny how Fascist he is. Being Jewish, you would think he would have a bit more understanding, considering his family/grandparents also suffered under it.

      Speaking of, why isn’t Ben doing his military service to Israel? Probably because he’s a sneaky rat who only sides with whatever benefits him at the time.

        Israel is proof that people don’t necessarily learn. In general, the abused often become abusers.

          Yeah I guess that makes sense from a mental point of viewpoint. It could fuck people up, but still no excuse considering Ben has access to the vast collective knowledge of humanity aka the internet and they can see shit with their own eyes but yet still refuse to believe something.

          I’m starting to believe, that Ben doesn’t care. He’s just for himself and whatever is convenient for him right now. He’s using Danielle as an example for his stupid views, just to give the illusion of what he says is true, because she repeats everything the American right has been saying for years.

          Ben should should shut the fuck up, and go back to comparing AOCs and his sisters feet. Sticking to what he knows best.

      “When we take Canada, you will be expelled to Panama to work the canal,” said Shapiro.

      Showing slightly more respect for the Conservative leader, Shapiro suggested that the United States would put off their invasion plans if Poilievre became prime minister.

      “We will call off the planned invasion if you are elected PM. We will make no such guarantees if Fidel Castro’s son remains the PM.”

          You’re not surprised by the fact that Ben said just that America had invasion plans? I know we knew they wanted to, but did he actually let it slip?

            America has had Canada invasion plans for centuries.

            Also that has nothing to do with what I said.

              I’m aware, just triggered and frustrated by this whole thing. But it’s just the fact that we’re facing it as a reality is so fucking stupid. Shit like this is supposed only happen in video games, not real life. It’s like this whole situation is coming from an imagination of a ten year old child.

                  This whole thing is so silly. I wish world leaders would bring this up more and make him look silly. Maybe if he gets embarrassed enough he will stop, but I highly doubt it. It’s a nightmare.

    export tariff on Alberta oil used to fund pipelines in Canada. Dictated. If Smith successfully gets a referendum, then we keep the money and tax Alberta oil. Another mistake of our slow transition to renewables, is the energy insecurity that occurs with fuel extortion. Solar (and batteries/electrolysis) has massively more lifetime energy content that justifies transportation costs without capital investments in dead ender energy, or tolerating politicians desperate to destroy planet by lying that it will be good for us.

      Let’s say that a referendum passed, how would that even work? Found this Supreme Court remark from Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin in 2014 when I was searching around for an answer of “is that even possible?”, apparently the Feds referred that question to the scoc during the Quebec referendums in the 90s, (see section 5) and the answer seems to be, certainly not unilaterally (I’ll read this in detail when I have a chance). The also touch on treaty rights which is my question as well, Alberta is like all treaty land, how would the indigenous land rights be handled? On top of that, as far as I recall there’s a tonne of crown land in Alberta, again, how would that be handled?

      I don’t have answers to these, just something I think about when these rumblings come up. I have my doubts about the actual popularity of an Alberta sovereignty movement, and frankly Canada is stronger with them than without, like with Québec it would be a loss to the federation.

        You’re right that secession can’t be a unilateral declaration of “we keep all federal assets”. I don’t believe that native treaties are as difficult as they are made out to be. = “they keep all rights they enjoyed from previous federal government” seems possible.

        A fair secession process/referendum should also include a 2nd/3rd referendum for counties/cities to declare their own independence from province, and then join another country. Where humanist principle of self determination is being invoked in secession, its humanist principle all the way down.

    Can’t or won’t run on solar, wind, and batteries? Alberta is widely regarded as an effective province for solar, and southern Alberta already has great wind options.

    Smith is actively working against renewables. I could understand if we tried to expand either and it didn’t pan out but it’s getting stopped before it starts.

      Plus with all the oil exploration, geothermal is actually promising as there are essentially hundreds of thousands of test holes we have data on.

      She doesn’t care about any of those. She’s just adding another excuse to her pile of excuses to try and justify or trying casually to get people used to the idea of Alberta and America being tightly associated

      They’re using her and she thinks she’s making friends.

      What bugs me, is that I’m already annoyed she’s a traitor, but she’s also embarrassing us Canadians with her lack of knowledge, especially from someone who is supposed to be an educated elected leader and understand these issues but she really doesn’t and she doesn’t think about the future at all, she’s always just living in the present, as if nothing she does today will have an effect tomorrow.

      I also don’t believe she understands what her actions are currently doing to her.

      I believe she truly perceives herself as some great leader, but in reality, she’s just a moron.

    As much as I wish she’d be investigated for treason, I don’t think there’s even a snowball’s chance she’d get a conviction. Instead, I hope she’d get a proper investigation on corruption. There’s plenty of evidence of that already, and tons of it is hard written into the policies she’s tried to put into law.
