Okay, cool, give us one example for each then please.
What would you consider equal lies by both sides?
What would you consider equal division by both sides?
What would you consider equally disturbing policies by both sides?

Well, explain it to us like we are stupid.
What is Danielle Smith doing to SUCCESSFULLY push back against Ottawa?

Also, let's talk about who is being divisive here.

Every time someone makes a comment about they Royalty Review, I write half a freaking page to explain why the typical preception of that review is incorrect.
Usually I get no response when I ask people how that changes their view of it.

Meanwhile people are asking you for 1 example of what you like about the UCP, and your response is "That's a stupid question".
Come on man. Make your point. Prove us wrong. Answer a question or two honestly.

Don't be ridiculous. The NDP haven't enacted Sovereignty legislation, they didn't sue any other level of government, they haven't threatened to remove Canadians from the CPP, or create a provincial police force so they can ignore federal laws. The NDP don't meet with people wearing "fornicate with Trudeau" bunnyhugs, or pastors who's mission is to divide us from our country.


"Both sides" is the biggest bull#### excuse for equivalency. It's the last bastion of ninnery for internet babblegaffes who have run out of excuses and can't get over their own psychological weaknesses that prevent them from rationally looking at anyone who isn't on team blue. Figure it the #### out already.

No, it's not at all a stupid question. I am asking you to present one policy danielle has instituted that actually pushes back at ottawa or whatever other drivel you're spewing from the butthole located on your face.

She can't use the sovereignty act and has even admitted herself that she wont use it.

She's backed away from public comments on CPP- APP because it's horrifically unpopular.

Her government officials advertise privately that they're doing everything they can to cozy up to their federal counterparts and are just waiting until post election to discuss it.

Just identify one. You can't because there isn't one, but try.

They're just intent to go down the Yoho garden path here. It's the only move these bloviating ####holes are capable of, because logic is totally incapable of working out the knots they've created in their own minds.

I have a feeling this election could swing. It’s almost a dead heat with the UCP in front but I think Albertans may see Smith for the demented wing but she is and the undecideds could vote NDP.

Artur Pawlowski has been found guilty in a Lethbridge court.

How about his co-conspirators, like those looking into getting him off on charges?

What did I not like about the NDP? Bill 6, castle provincial park, bighorn provincial park proposal ( both significantly affect outdoors men, hunters and recreation) While agreeing a management plan was needed. Did not like the implementation of the climate action plan. Soft on federal government overreach.

What I like about the NDP- allocated funding for healthcare and the cancer centre.

What concerns me going forward? Federal government overreach, bill C-21 , a laundry list of federal government issues that I dont expect the NDP based on their history to resist or fight.



Lets not forget the UCP had their own issues to deal with much like Notley had low oil prices being driven by external pressures.

I dont think there is a perfect party for my beliefs. Hell, I have voted Alberta party, NDP party , wildrose, and conservative. I have yet to vote UCP so im going to try that this time.

In the end of day, I really could not care less about your opinions about me or what my beliefs are, backwards or forwards, not everyone has to fit in your box of preconceived stereotypes.

you said " Personally, steps taken by the last NDP government were counter my beliefs and interests so I will be voting UCP. "

what did the NDP do that is counter to your belief system, and what does the UCP offer that aligns with your belief system?
I'd really like to know. I only ask as you brought it up. You profess to not care what we think so I thought you wouldn't be shy about how the UCP matches your beliefs.

Awww yeah - Stick Man is back baby.

Gotta love how the court cited the Rebel footage of Pawlowski's saloon speech in its verdict.

TIP: It's a lot nicer weather at this time of year to make a run for the border, Art.

But a week after Kenney’s “call for calm,” Smith went beyond expressing sympathy with the grievances of those in Ottawa and Coutts and endorsed the actions by stating that she wanted to see the convoy “win.”

Savage added that “this protest is no longer peaceful and is causing hardship to thousands of law-abiding Albertans,” noting that blockaders were disrupting traffic and impeding emergency vehicles.


“The situation has become intolerable and it has to end,” Savage said.

Smith also appears alongside Rob Anderson, a top adviser who recently served as the Executive Director of the Premier’s Office.


In the video, Anderson describes the Coutts border blockade as a “beautiful thing.”
