If you don’t understand that our issue is a national or interprovincial one- you just don’t get it, or you’re not trying to get it, or you’re blinded into team politics. It doesn’t matter what the NDP do. Or what the UCP do. Or what the Alberta Party does. It doesn’t matter.
I have no idea who I’m going to vote for. I’ve never been a team politics guy. I’ll survey the field and make my decision closer to. I work in oil and gas and dearly want a resurrection to industry and Calgary, but that doesn’t mean I don’t believe the NDP hasn’t been trying to help. I think- it doesn’t matter. There are much greater agencies at stake working against us. Is Kenney, or the Alberta Party the ones to get us there? Notley?
I don’t think it matters, honestly. It’s a federal issue. It’s a national crisis.
People will eventually get it, it’s just sad that it’ll only be after our standard of living significantly slides to realize it. Some of these people that accepted money to fight against our industry should be in jail- honestly. Like- the seriousness should not be understated and we are into economic treason to be completely honest. These people aren’t Canadians. They don’t want the best for Canada. They don’t want the best for the environment. They want the best for themselves.
They should be in jail.

I’ll tell you what I think is nightmarish abou the NDP government; their complete inability to both budget and follow a budget. Not only have they borrowed for operations, which is basically indefensible, but they raised taxes and spending and didn’t manage to stick to that. I get it...The price of oil cratered and there are all kinds of issues. I do give them a pass for that portion, but the truth is they financially have been rather terrible.
But the other side of the coin is that I care about social issues. How can I look my kids in the eye and say “well I tied for people who effectively quashed LGBTQ rights because I was worried about the budget.”? So, I just don’t know.
