This strategy is effectively playing Roulette with our taxpayer money and betting on 00, and we have one shot.

I'll give Kenney all kinds of credit if somehow this all comes together and we get back $20 billion for Alberta. That is just such pie-in-the-sky crap and we're all going to find that out very soon.

For Kenney's sake, I hope Scheer gets into power and the Conservatives bend over backwards to service Alberta's ridiculous demands.
You are when you claimed it was just as bad the NDP suing themselves. It objectively, quantifiably, by orders of magnitude, is not. Unless you're under the impression that a referendum and team of lawyers will cost 20 Bil? That is why I think you're horribly confused on the actual downside risk of this in regards to cost. It's inconsequential.
