She believes things to be true just because she thinks it. She's got a lot in common mentally with Trump, and a lot in common success-wise as well. She's pretty much failed out of everything she has ever done. But don't expect her supporters to catch on to that one.

Looking forward to tomorrow when she's on Real Talk. What comes out of her reverse dumper is going to set the tone of Alberta politics for months to come.

"Canada must strengthen the Central Parliament, and make the Confederation one people and one government, instead of five peoples and five governments, with merely a point of authority connecting us to a limited and insufficient extent.” - John A. MacDonald.


Alberta conservatives might just join in on the statue toppling now?

She's not even bright enough to recognize what she is pushing for, more provincial autonomy, is the exact opposite of what we need to get resources to market.

BC- "What's that? we can tell the feds to get stuffed the next time they approve a pipeline from Alberta? Well OK then!"

Or maybe she's expecting Biden to be a White Knight to Alberta's oil industry. Super likely.

Do any of her suporters even think about asking reasonable questions, or is it just a rah rah train now?

Well another Pipeline from Alberta is never, ever going to be approved in this country so thats not really a concern worth worrying about.

How about "we don't want these existing pipelines to run through our province anymore." The point is, she arguing for more provincial autonomy, which is bad for a province like Alberta that needs the feds to make things happen.

I'm worried this conservative whacko is going to scare away potential investment in our province.

The embarrassment level is still off the charts. Like, Trump level embarrassment. Once again, thanks UCP.

I imagine the conservatives will win again. Strictly because for the majority of people nothing had changed. If nothing has changed why would You vote differently?

Think you'd have to have your buried fairly far down in the sand to think nothing has changed. Head in the sand or life in a bubble.

That’s not true, large businesses pay 1/3 less in provincial taxes so that the government can put the screws to our some of province’s most vulnerable. That’s something, isn’t it?
