Calgary Herald:Leaked forecast suggests climate plan could cost Alberta billions, but NDP say analysis is invalid
47 Replies to “Red Rose Country”
The NDP analysis itself is invalid. The Khmer Vert member, Shannon Phillips, has lectured Albertans that they need to change their “behaviours”. Well, I will….but not as she intends. I have quit tipping due to the increase in minimum wage, I will no longer donate to any charities and I will participate enthusiastically in the cash market place whenever I have work to be done or goods to be purchased. And as I think of more ways, I will employ them. She might be successful in pulling down the Alberta economy, but not mine.
Global warming analysis on crappy science? It’s settled, denier, shut up.
Financial impact of carbon tax? It can’t be helped! Nobody can blame us! It’s our intentions that matter!!
If you haven’t read Atlas Shrugged recently, it’s not quite fiction anymore.
People, even Albertans, don’t realize how well off we were. The communists in power are truly destroying it all. In one term the bolsheviks are going to turn us into a have not province. The beauty of it is that the effing Liberals are going to have no money from Alberta to blow on Quebec. Pretty soon they are going to be tripping over each other to build pipelines but it may be too late. The positive business climate in Alberta may be a thing of the past. Alberta oil companies may find themselves headquartered in London with major investments in South Sudan.
And if it hurts people, that’s too bad. It’ll give Red Rachel something to cackle about with delight at the next politburo conference and the party faithful will brag about the glorious collateral damage that they caused. After all, the proletariat have to make sacrifices for the revolution, don’t they?
I have read atlas shrugged and it is imprinted on my brain.
This will not end well. I hope Britain leaves the eu it will start a change on that front . this is for sure i will never help a euro weenie nation fight socialist dictatorships in the future we bailed them out from themselves before but they just keep going down the same road….its not worth it let Venezuela be the example for the whole world to see but they wont see because Greece should have woken up the euro weenies.
The Khmer Vert doesn’t know math, so who cares what they think.
With Alberta and Ontario gone into putrid green sludge we should be soon seeing signs of an awakening across the land when they realize they’re broke. This should first hit provinces traditionally dependent on those provinces through Equalization, a handout to cover their bad management.
“The positive business climate in Alberta IS a thing of the past.”
You were being too kind scar.
Talked with an OH&S guys a couple of months back. He looks after the well sites in AB. He said he will be out of work soon as there are no more well heads left to close. The companies have decided to shut the taps as the profit from those wells is less than the carbon tax they have to pay. No use being in business if there’s no money to be made.
Where do the NDP financial wizards think they will be getting their coffers filled to spend on their new pet school curriculum with all the lbgtuvwyxz which is soooo vital to helping our economy??
The NDP realizes they are usually a one-term government,so they’ll implement as many of their destructive and ruinous policies very quickly in Alberta, hoping the Province will be totally “greened” by the time voters smarten up and boot them out.
Our BC Dippers were the same in their first go-round,early 70’s, but by the 90’s had learned a little subtlety. Unfortunately for them, WE have long memories and they can look forward to going down to defeat once again next year,especially when we have the example of Alberta right next door.
A good revolution for all the Western world is in order,unfortunately, we don’t produce leaders any more, just turn out more sheeple every day. In place of Joan of Arc we have Stephane Dion.
And instead of Charles Martel, we have Justin Trudeau.
God I’m depressed at that thought, where’s the beer?
The greatest pity of it all is the fact that the good people of Alberta had no further to look than their neighbour to the west to see the horrendous destruction and carnage caused to British Columbia’s economy when we elected the NDP to govern and destroy an economy that was humming along minding everyone’s business exceedingly well until the newly elected government and majority imposed their socialist doctrine on the province. In no time flat we went from a “Have” to “Have-not” economy and although we have returned to “have” status we are still not out of the socialist woods.
You’ve got four more years of those idiots, Alberta ……… but we are sure you already realize your egregious error in electing them in the first place. Now, quit whining and get your act together in Uniting the Right with a conservative movement to rid yourselves of the terrible NDP disease.
They DON’T CARE about the math, its worse than not knowing.
It’s all about ideology, finances be damned!
Who’s needs to increase royalties on mostly marginal oil and gas production when you can invent a tax to get more than enough from guilt ridden NDP support’n taxpayers…along with the other 2/3’s of the Province that would never have votes orange…ever. There’s a special place in hell for Jim Prentice and his PC crony owned lackeys.
I don’t know Don, our citizens are dumb as trees out here in Lotusland.
The screaming about ‘fixing the housing market’ for one.
Really? I want those friggin socialists to stay away from doing anything. Their “solutions” are for worse than the disease. Yet, the citizens want it, apparently.
Last election, CC was damned lucky that Comrade Adrian put his foot in his mouth, he can’t help himself. Comrade Horgan has far better speaking skills, although he is every bit the ideological dolt that Dix is/was. But, can lightning strike twice with CC? She is not a good leader, and their policies are stolen from the center left. I would rather another, as would many others, but the NDP is always far worse!
Did I mention the citizens are stupid out here?
well, one has to wonder were all the rectum Newfbertans who used to ridicule Ontario are now, I don’t hear too much of the that cackling, about ontarIowe, any more
I’v got a 4 year supply of beer and popcorn on hand:-)))
Ontariowe is way further down the rabbit hole…it’s in the very culture. Unlike Alberta.
So what is the number of MLA’s in Notley’s Majority?
How many by-elections are necessary to unseat the NPD?
Just saying 4 years is a long time and life is a risky affair.
Amazing how many politicians will resign as they feel the lack of love from their citizens.
Damn captcha is nearly longer than my comment.
… lectured Albertans that they need to change their “behaviours”.
…and that is what the whole leftist prog agenda is about. It’s ‘social engineering’. They have a socialist vision of a brave new world, and coercing people to ‘change their behaviours’, makes them feel good.
Damn captcha is nearly longer than my comment.
when it gets stuck on long text strings, hit ‘preview’ a few times and it cycles back to 3 & 4 digit numbers.
Well, Albertans really stepped into the manure pile this time.
Joey, go for it.
Ontario had Bob Rae and lived, SK had the NDP and SoCreds, etc.
Provincial governments are here and gone. It’s the federal ones you need to worry about. You can leave your province, you have to Go Galt to escape federal.
I hate to argue with you on this one,Dan,( because you’re probably right) we BC voters aren’t all that sharp,BUT we did elect the lesser of two evils last time.
This time around,Christie had better lose a bit of weight on her ass and wear really tight tank tops,it just might work again.
It would a dismal thing to contemplate electing a Party that truly believes in climate change and is anti-pipeline,as are the NDP, but Horgan IS a good speaker and as PC as Kathleen Wynne,so he automatically gets the Vancouver/Victoria/Gulf Islands vote.
Fix the housing market? Only socialists would believe that can be done,but as you say,their trying to fix it could create a hell of a mess! It’s easier to put out the Fort Mac fire.
There IS no solution to this problem, Vancouver is a great city to live in,costs are going to be out of reach for most of us,same is starting to happen in all the desirable areas of B.C.,including the Okanagan.
Burn baby burn. Canadians are as dumb as dog sh*t, consistently electing politicians with the IQ of a stalk of broccoli and the morals of a two buck wh*re, which pretty much describes the Canadian electorate in general, come to think of it. Alberta, Ontario, BC, whatever. I hope I live long enough to see this stupid country disintegrate into ten little Zimbabwes, which is pretty much what the average Canadian moron deserves – a life of utter destitution thanks to incredibly stupid government policies. I have no sympathy for anyone or anything. When I think I wasted three decades of my life serving a nation of ungrateful, entitled, lazy and downright cretinous jerks… Yeah, burn. I won’t be celebrating on July 1st, but I will pray that there won’t be many Canada Days left for the bovine masses to celebrate.
I sympathize with your plight. Anyone who isn’t incarcerated for good reason should be free to move to whatever part of Canada they want to live, or even leave the country if they want to. Any soviet-style laws that prevent that must be repealed.
You knew what you were doing, Albertans.
Enjoy the poverty.
Bravo Tanker!
There aren’t too many .. “average Canadian morons” left in Canada… In B.C. the Chinese, Sihks, Pakistanis, E. Indians and – refugee muslims – Koreans, Vietnamese to name a few rarely, if ever, assimilate to any culture, religion and, language but their own from the ‘old’ country and, they now outnumber any of we Canadian morons in many of the towns/cities of this province.
Even heading for the hills is no longer a plan … we would still be outnumbered.
`
Outnumbered indeed.
I grew up in a remote part of northern B. C. and, after I finished my B. Sc. in the late 1970s, I moved away to start my first job. Back then, the population was largely of European descent. The last time I was there was over a year ago and I noticed that a significant portion of the people were now from other ethnic groups.
Osumashi, we did not elect this idiot regime, we had a Quisling spoiled brat run around the province with her two bit sidekick out of work lawyer and churn up people with lies and innuendo about land use bills and whatever else the idiot could think of to get elected, and when the media morons couldn’t even get her elected with their cheerleading, she did an overnight conversion to conservatism and Prentice rather than tell her to suck it let her bring her tainted skinny ass across the street and the electorate were fed up with the fool fooling the fool, and we split the brain vote, and up the middle came the morons, the dopey NDPee, elected by default. The conservatives had developed the David Dingbat disease to an extent and the Wildrose were ready to not be ready so “shazaam” Alberta has 3 more years of morons and fatties running the show, oh it is fun watching 40 plus years of hardwork devalue by the day.
Yup i agree canada deserves to be destroyed. we have time and again elected the worst from the early 50’s to now we have just shit and pissed all over the judeo christian culture that was the fabric of this nation we have taken it to the shredder and ripped it apart. i blame the church , and the gov for being so stupid and trusting. while i dont agree with beating people over the headswith the bible i do agree with saying this is how we do it here love it accept it and join us …or go back….and i am not talking about just brown people i am talking about the secular euro weenies that come here and have no respect for the judeo christian roots that this country and gov were formed under.
we deserve it all …the best part is once the lights go out here in canada it gets cold really quick. but the cold wont save us . it gets cold in india , it gets cold in iraq , ect ect. so it will have to be a total melt down. and the head for the hillspeople will be plucked off one acreage after another cuz no one unifies no one has a plan to stick together. no one is united. not even the church. how white people could do this to themselves and their culture (christianity started in the middle east with brown people by the way) is insanity.
I’ll assume your observation is true for your part of Canada. In our small town, only the first immigrants refuse to integrate and mostly live in their own ghetto with an overblown sense of entitlement. Almost all the crime is committed by these first immigrants.
All the later immigrants live in mixed neighborhoods, dress like normal Canadians, speak English, send their kids to public schools, participate in group sports, allow their kids to date and marry other cultures, and work together to help each other. These later immigrants are happy to be in Canada and consider themselves Canadians from somewhere else. True multiculturalism seems to work best in small towns.
In a democracy, people get the government they deserve.
yeah jean cuz small towns arestill full of christian morals of inclusion but assertion….not capitulation.
Well said, and the current federal administration will accelerate that decline. I do have to hold out some faint hope that the people will wake up in time as I have twelve grandchildren who I do not wish to grow up in a Venezuela clone. However, history of other countries that chose this path to chaos tells me that my grandchildren will have to suffer like their great great grandparents did.
bartinsky, if the PCs would not have become Liberals in everything but name the Smith bunch would never have gotten any traction. Her becoming a Quisling disgusted too many people.
Unfortunately, the mass defection by Smith and her traitors meant that Wild Rose didn’t run a candidate in my riding. That was probably one reason why the voters elected–ahem–Red Rachel as our MLA.
Another was that it’s adjacent to the University of Alberta. I’m sure there were enough commies who live in the riding who cast their ballots for her. (No, I didn’t. I never voted in NDP in my entire life and I have no intention of ever changing that.)
But don’t forget that Queen Alison had a lot to do with it, particularly after the investigation into some of her conduct let her off the hook.
Tanker’s right. Totally. It’s rather interesting at how thoughts of “Let it burn” would be anathema as few as 5 years ago, though.
That’s a good idea. They are doing that with Grants now so non-profits don’t become too dependant, they can’t receive more than 2 years.
That we get the government we deserve is very true. People who vote on one issue, people who vote on personality and looks and people who vote without having a clue about their policies beyond what’s in it for them. That’s democracy. It doesn’t hit them until it starts to affect them. Alberta is feeling the pain of their revenge voting.
Ontario is putting up a false front, Wynne trotting around spending money she doesn’t have and has the time to go to the US and give her opinion on Donald Trump who could possibly be the next POTUS. Not too clever but then who would notice, she’s a Liberal on a spending spree while traffic ant food banks is picking up and many are forced to sell their homes due to higher and higher taxation and the cost of hydro and utilities in the province.
Seems to me we are now reaping the “benefits” of 50 years of Propaganda – Disinformation – Marxist Ideology preached by ACADEMIA (at all levels), and supported whole heartedly by the Enemedia….Any Politician in this country that has designs on being elected and is even a smidgeon conservative will be vilified by the “Academic Experts” and said media stat.
Most Canadians are too STOOPID – too Entitled and with too little life experience to even recognize what has happened..You knew the gig was up when a major political party endorsed the Leap Manifesto.
So yea, we need a fricking ARMED Revolution – nothing else will work….right.??
But knowing my fellow Canadians..? it will never ever happen.
Australia is looking better day by day….
Edmonton Journal isn’t running this story… been watching their website and Facebook page for the last couple days and no sign of it. Other Postmedia papers like the Herald and NP have it, but right in the NDP stronghold of Edmonton the Journal isn’t running it. Instead they have like 3 stories about Meatloaf and 2 about preseason CFL.
I’m not surprised. The Journal’s been an apostle for the Dippers since they were elected. Lorne Gunter wrote a column on the Sun’s website, though.
One reason I stopped reading the Journal was because it had become fishwrap, all puffery and completely lacking in substance.
after reading the article I will dare to suggest that the numbers are far too low. it will be much worse.
Your last sentence, “But don’t forget that Queen Alison had a lot to do with it, particularly after the investigation into some of her conduct let her off the hook.”, was bang on. That certainly entered into the whole equation when people made their decisions on who to vote for that day, or whether to even vote.
That sir is an excellent assessment as to how we got where we are. I have thought the same for a couple of decades. When a people vote for someone because he has pretty hair you know responsible government has been extinguished.
You might want to rethink Australia though as it has an almost total firearms ban.
The PCs might still be in power, though likely as a minority government, if Redford had been found guilty on at least some minor offences. However, she was completely cleared and that might have been what set people off.
Many of us remember the collapse of the Principal Group and the subsequent Code inquiry. There was a lot of circumstantial evidence that certain members of the provincial government were involved with the company. The result of the inquiry didn’t find much wrong and nobody was penalized.
The investigation into Redford’s activities and the finding that she was not guilty was possibly seen by many older voters of a repetition of the Principal Group mess.
Regardless of what redford did Prentice was handed the province on a platter. The electorate wanted redford gone. The party knew it and she took the high jump well before the mandate was up. She was forced out.
Enter Prentice. Almost every move he made was the wrong one. All the crap with the WR, calling an early election. He did not need to do any of that. The electorate were not clamoring for an election. They wanted redford gone. That’s it.
Prentice and the PC’s are the goats here. This should never be forgotten.
There needs to be serious jail to given the perpetrators of this fraud called climate change. Billions stolen from future generations so these morons can enrich themselves. Progressives and liberals truly have a mental illness.
Why is there not anyone demanding these charlatans prove what they claim??
The NDP analysis itself is invalid. The Khmer Vert member, Shannon Phillips, has lectured Albertans that they need to change their “behaviours”. Well, I will….but not as she intends. I have quit tipping due to the increase in minimum wage, I will no longer donate to any charities and I will participate enthusiastically in the cash market place whenever I have work to be done or goods to be purchased. And as I think of more ways, I will employ them. She might be successful in pulling down the Alberta economy, but not mine.

The beauty of it is that the effing Liberals are going to have no money from Alberta to blow on Quebec. Pretty soon they are going to be tripping over each other to build pipelines but it may be too late. The positive business climate in Alberta may be a thing of the past. Alberta oil companies may find themselves headquartered in London with major investments in South Sudan.
And if it hurts people, that’s too bad.

Most Canadians are too STOOPID – too Entitled and with too little life experience to even recognize what has happened..You knew the gig was up when a major political party endorsed the Leap Manifesto.
So yea, we need a fricking ARMED Revolution – nothing else will work….right.??
But knowing my fellow Canadians..? it will never ever happen.
Australia is looking better day by day….
Edmonton Journal isn’t running this story… been watching their website and Facebook page for the last couple days and no sign of it. Other Postmedia papers like the Herald and NP have it, but right in the NDP stronghold of Edmonton the Journal isn’t running it. Instead they have like 3 stories about Meatloaf and 2 about preseason CFL.
I’m not surprised. The Journal’s been an apostle for the Dippers since they were elected. Lorne Gunter wrote a column on the Sun’s website, though.
One reason I stopped reading the Journal was because it had become fishwrap, all puffery and completely lacking in substance.
after reading the article I will dare to suggest that the numbers are far too low. it will be much worse.
Your last sentence, “But don’t forget that Queen Alison had a lot to do with it, particularly after the investigation into some of her conduct let her off the hook.”, was bang on. That certainly entered into the whole equation when people made their decisions on who to vote for that day, or whether to even vote.
That sir is an excellent assessment as to how we got where we are. I have thought the same for a couple of decades. When a people vote for someone because he has pretty hair you know responsible government has been extinguished.
You might want to rethink Australia though as it has an almost total firearms ban.
The PCs might still be in power, though likely as a minority government, if Redford had been found guilty on at least some minor offences. However, she was completely cleared and that might have been what set people off.
Many of us remember the collapse of the Principal Group and the subsequent Code inquiry. There was a lot of circumstantial evidence that certain members of the provincial government were involved with the company. The result of the inquiry didn’t find much wrong and nobody was penalized.
The investigation into Redford’s activities and the finding that she was not guilty was possibly seen by many older voters of a repetition of the Principal Group mess.
Regardless of what redford did Prentice was handed the province on a platter. The electorate wanted redford gone. The party knew it and she took the high jump well before the mandate was up. She was forced out.
Enter Prentice. Almost every move he made was the wrong one. All the crap with the WR, calling an early election. He did not need to do any of that. The electorate were not clamoring for an election. They wanted redford gone. That’s it.
Prentice and the PC’s are the goats here. This should never be forgotten.
There needs to be serious jail to given the perpetrators of this fraud called climate change. Billions stolen from future generations so these morons can enrich themselves. Progressives and liberals truly have a mental illness.
Why is there not anyone demanding these charlatans prove what they claim??
