That guy looks like a slimeball.

Danielle Smith was booed at the UCP AGM when she tried to sell her bad federal energy deal to the UCP convention crowd.

I applaud Premier Smith's efforts to negotiate and get the best deal possible with Ottawa, but if she wants to hold the UCP together she needs to start showing some teeth with Ottawa immediately.
The prairie Independence movement isn't a knee-jerk reaction to an election.

Mark Carney promised "unimaginable speed" but he just handed the B.C. government an unconstitutional VETO over pipelines.

DKG

The federal government will do nothing to get a pipeline built. That much is clear from the advanced reports about what is in the MOU (memorandum of understanding) that Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith are expected to sign Thursday in Calgary.

Once Alberta has everything in place (constitutional, Indigenous, environmental, regulatory and financial), then the Carney government will consider giving the pipeline to their Major Projects Office (MPO).

ut aren't those preconditions the very things the MPO is to help with? Once the federal cabinet has designated a project to be in the national interest, it is supposed to be referred to the MPO, whose job it then is to smooth the regulatory burden, help negotiate with First Nations affected by the project and, if necessary, scour the world for investors.

To be fair, it is not entirely clear what the MPO is doing, other than renting first-class office space and spending more than $230 million on staff, desks, computers and boardroom tables.

There is little evidence the MPO has done anything yet except set up photo ops for Carney to make official announcements. It's probably too early for the MPO to have cleared the way of any of the 10 projects selected by the Liberals, but there is no public evidence, at least not yet, that the MPO is even trying.

The Liberals are just doing this to stave off a national unity crisis with Alberta separatists.

You know avatar_DKG DKG you seem to think that it's all rosey within the Liberal Party right now, but it actually isn't:


The Liberal party is quite divided over avatar_Mark Carney Carney's plans to shift his party to the Right. You may not notice, but many programs & services are getting cut as budgets are slashed. Ie - there's no fireworks party celebration in Vancouver next year cuz funding was cut. So was Trudeau's plan to plant millions of new trees which environmentalists pushed for. It's all to pay for more fighter planes and corporate tax cuts

The free & easy days of Trudeau are over. And it's more like Carney & the corporatists are telling the rest of the Liberal caucus to get on board or get out.

Geez no wonder Premier Doug Ford is all Smiles these days & he loves Carney so much. He's the best Conservative Prime Minister his party never had.

You may not think so but money is flowing into the corporate coffers & Bay Street is happy. But the leftist wing of the Liberal party is not.

You know instead of trashing Carney ya'll at TBC should be elated cause he's advancing much of the Tory agenda Poilievre would have had he become Prime Minister.

Carney is doing it wearing a red cap & sweater instead of a Blue One.

However the Conservative & Liberal agendas look oddly similar these days.

None of these national projects are new and none of them will move along with unimaginable speed.

Jo Jo and I were discussing this after we had sex last night. We agree that all of these are very expensive photo ops.

Jo Jo told me after he got off his knees this morning that this MOU is not an energy export deal. It is really a high tax agreement.
