Like, video evidence exists for Rob convincing Smith to do this. This is the type of "expert" Smith takes direction from. Please, someone defend this, or admit you made a mistake voting UCP.

Fuzz. What is it that you are upset about? The pause? The link you posted about battery storage says that the battery storage industry in not affected by the pause.

Politician gets a speeding ticket? Scandal!

Reminds me of when conservatives were totally up in arms when Kaycee Madu got pulled over and tried to use his political position to expunge it.

The uproar was deafening!

Did you read the rest of it, where industry players are reconsidering investment in Alberta?

Do you acknowledge that this decision is ideological, rather than based on any reality? Or are you pretending this process is something a thinking functional government would implement wisely for the benefit of Alberta?

Seriously, find me one actual industry expert who says this pause was required, and good for the industry, investment, and Alberta. I'll wait.

I’m not going to go googling for you. But what I can tell you is there are a some really good posters on this board (you are one of them).

I have read posts like Tron’s post #14450 and Frequitude’s many informative posts here and they lay it out pretty good. Heck they even put it in terms that someone like me can understand! (Having zero knowledge of how the grid works).

Remember the War Room? Great thread on it:


https://nitter.net/Norlaine/status/1...599899947211#m


Ya, that somehow still exists as an un-FOIPable entity, with a budget somewhere in the 12-$30 million range, doing what exactly? Conservatives, justify this spending please. Because it makes no ####ing sense to me.

Yoho loved Kenney gambling (and losing) $1.4B on pipeline hopes and dreams. The most illogical and colossal waste of money in the history of Alberta. He won't acknowledge that blemish though, because BLUE. Yoho would have a massive syntax error in his brain to process it otherwise.

Naw, just like every time the Cons shuffle the deck chairs, they just throw the previous guy under the bus and pretend the new guy is the actual leader they deserve.

Kenney is 100% getting the Redford treatment by the fingers-in-the-ears crowd nowadays.

I’m pretty sure the most important part got lines in across the boarder.

If Trump gets in that will be the first project up back and running.

Do you pay any attention to anything at all? First off, Trump had 4 years in office and didn't get it done. TC Energy(or whatever the name of the new liquids company will be) has walked away, and won't be going back. It's deader than 98% of Danielle's brain cells. Move on.

You are a ******* moron.
That project is dead. Period.
I'm not shocked you're dumb enough to believe it's still possible.
I'm also not shocked that you're dumb enough to think that even if it was possible, that anyone would actually want to/be able to go ahead with it.

Probably but Kenny thinks “where there is a will there is a way.”

It’s sad you can’t go one post without personal attacks.

LOL. Here's an old video of the ex-premier who is trying to cover his idiotic move of donating $1.3 billion of public money to a private company saying it still has a chance. This, the guy who lost his job to a moron waitress backed by hillbillies.


Way to prove a thing.

Just dead silence from conservatives on their own gifting (sic: grifting) billions of public money to a private corporation for literally nothing in return. Nada. Zero.

A lot of tumbleweeds from the blue camp the last three years.

Smith recently tweeted this:


https://twitter.com/user/status/1692628517132067187


I was interested in some drill down on these numbers, so went looking for where they are from. Hrmm, it says the source is "Reliable Alberta". Who is that? Oh, just some random Twitter account run by...who the #### knows! But it's good enough to use for slamming the feds! The account just looks to tweet out an energy consumption mix every hour? So no idea the actual source for this.

This is the type of well researched information gathering I'd expect as a taxpayer in this province. Random anonymous Twitter accounts. I guess this passes for information these days. But I guess it's probably no worse than the Frasier Institute she is happy to use when their misinformation is convenient.
