Lol. My favourite option was the decrease contributions and increase seniors benefits. I'd like free money please. Garbage. No way they can lose with that survey.

Yoho in the comments section - "You and David are doing a bang up job! Some may see you as dangerous, but real Albertans love to nestle in the blue bosom of our lord, our savior, and our communist-keeper-away-er. Take Back our Pensions! Halt all the solarz!

How do we opt out of an AB plan, short of moving?

Not a single question to gauge support for this buffoonery.

Quote:
Section 3: Contributions & Benefits

While many Albertans see the Canada Pension Plan as a retirement pension, the plan offers different types of benefits. If an Alberta Pension Plan was established, the benefits would not be less than Canada Pension Plan. However, since there would be a large asset transfer to an Alberta Pension Plan, the government could look at improving other benefits under the plan. Understanding what Albertans value most about benefits will help inform how an Alberta pension could provide the most benefit if adopted.

Yup, but a lot about "We are gonna save so much money, how do you want us to spend it?"

What bothers me the most is that the UCP said that they didn't want to talk about the APP, AB Police or new mines in the Rockies, and the NDP just went along with it. Now it's their primary agenda.

All things they purposely didn't campaign on because they knew they were unpopular topics, but as soon as they go back in tricycle seat they are flooding your life with all these terrible ideas again. Don't be surprised.

Don't worry, the "The NDP never campaigned on a carbon tax" crew will be along shortly to be outraged by this.
While we wait, I'll be over here holding my breath.

So wait, this is it, then? This is all we are making the decision based on? A bunch of clearly bull#### numbers and consultation based on bull#### numbers?

Can we not have a decision based on facts and reality? They just assume 53% of CPP funds are going to end up in the APP with no "hey, this is what we think we are entitled, what would we actually get?" answer from the feds?

I guess this is what happens when you elect people who openly say they won't listen to experts when making decisions. Again, UCP voters are ####ing stupid. Thanks, morons.

You'd think that would be an indication that if your idea is unpopular with the majority of of your people... maybe... don't do it? Either own that ####, or don't at all.

This deplorable party of political pond scum sure knows what they're doing is unpopular, yet still wastes taxpayers' money and time doing so of course. Then when they get their hand caught in the proverbial cookie jar, they just pull it out and say 'hahaha, it's all jokes, don't get mad'. ####ing insufferable. And morons like Yoho eat it up because BusTits.

Questions to Premier Smith on APP. They don’t mind CPP being highly invested in political renewables and green energy though.

The Breakdown

From the DM’s…

This is a difficult but important piece of video.

On Wednesday, Take Back Alberta leader announced that education, healthcare and the justice system had been taken over by the people he wants to drive out.

He vilified the mainstream media.

He announced he would destroy unions.

He announced “the Muslims” and “the Sikhs” are with him.

He announced he will destroy progressive ideology.

He targeted this rant towards the people across the street who showed up to show support for kids.

This is the David Parker you won’t ever see on a podcast or Jespo or the news.

Because it’s the real one.
