Talking about hobbits makes everybody hobbits?

So, we're on an board about the Calgary Flames, so we're all Calgary Flames?

Well at least we all know that you're unhinged from reality.

Cool. This guy is going to be a false prophet in no time flat. I'll take bets on it. Also, he needs to stop saying friend. I am not his friend.

He's a coalition builder. Foreign Albertans. First Nations. 17 year olds. Non-voters. I didn't realize he was such a blow hole and all of us are friends

Why would we want to collect our own taxes?

At a minimum we should collect provincial taxes like Quebec and start running CPP and EI. Same powers as Quebec. Then when Quebec gets to collect federal taxes we can slide in behind them.

In Game of Thrones, elves and hobbits would make out with each other.

It puts jobs into Alberta that are currently in Ottawa that we pay for. It makes a path toward independence a credible threat.

Do you even realize the stereotypical, bigoted generalization you just made about New Zealanders? You are just further cementing yourself as a tool. Congrats.

I hope Kenney can make progress on the pipeline file, because on just about everything else he's quite surely going to be regressive.

Alberta election talk has now become New Zealand Hobbit talk.

God bless this forum, friends.
