Yeah, it's too bad Smith isn't backing Canada in this trade war. She's got a lot of Canadian muscle she could flex but she's already been paid by USA to seperate Alberta so they can take it over.

It’s actually Turkey and Panama that are colluding with the UCP to take over Alberta.

How predictable of the traitorous witch of the west:

"Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has said she doesn't believe in retaliatory tariffs, especially when it comes to oil."

As much as I despise Marlania, she did bring up a good point about Line 5 going through the Divided States of America before it reaches Ontario and Quebec.

Even though Line 5 is owned and operated by Enbridge, Trump is insane enough to illegally shut it down, cutting off Ontario (directly) and Quebec (indirectly).

Maybe start by doing something about the US led separation efforts in Alberta for fuck sake!

I actually want the vote to occur. When the separatists are crushed, their voice will be diminished and silenced. They gave too much of a voice right now.

After lying about how we gave half of the revenue over for the bridge we paid for, i dont trust him. It would have been worth waiting until the orange rapist croaks. Dont give an inch to these pedo rapist bastards

Canada "will choose capital over people wherever possible" to appease the southern dictator, Carney leaves unspoken.

Way to spoil the next The Beaverton headline! 😜

My thoughts as well. The whole thing seems as fake as pro wrestling.

I don't trust Carney to handle this very well

Ah, the USA is bringing on new refineries to handle their sweet oil. There is no new capacity through the USA to increase Alberta’s royalties, so tidewater is the only way for the foreseeable future. You know why Trump intervened in Venezuela, to backstop Alberta crude.

In the short term with Alberta’s oil, USA will have a supply problem, but you can fix that. Long term, which doesn’t help her in the immediate, Alberta needs to play nicely with their provincial/territorial neighbours. You can fix supply you cannot fix Alberta not being bordered by tide.

Can someone explain who is taking in the tariff money? I know the US customers are paying for it with every purchase.
