Sure Alicia, go off. This is obviously far more likely than Carney being cordial and receptive to western concerns and having a different programme regarding resource development than Trudeau.
I've noticed both Scott Moe and Danielle Smith lately, when criticizing federal policies, are careful to say "Trudeau Liberals" or "policies of the Trudeau government" and are careful to avoid criticizing Carney or the current government directly. Perhaps its just trying to be diplomatic on their part in an attempt to remain cordial but I find it infuriating because I see Mark Carney as far more dangerous and destructive to this country than Justin Trudeau ever was. Trudeau was an imbecile, a figurehead put in charge due to his family name, and I see Carney as the guy the WEF sent from corporate to replace him, to succeed where Trudeau floundered. Carney is a far worse villain than Trudeau.

Governments invest across generations, not just for a singular human lifespan. Infrastructure does not become obsolete on the same timespan as consumer gaming consoles. The Canadian Pacific Railway, St. Lawrence Seaway, and Trans-Canada Highway are still useful today.
If I bought a PS5 for $800, and I was bringing in 25$ a year charging people to play it, would you let me call that profitable — especially when new models are bound to come out? NO! So don’t let the government do that! Journalists have to push back on it.

Canada’s “money printing” pales in comparison to that of the United States. Dirigiste states have been successful in creating economic growth—Singapore, Japan, South Korea, France, Sweden, Norway, and Finland. Laissez-faire is a largely unsuccessful model for middle powers.
Of course Carney is a failure. It's impossible for a country to thrive with heavy-handed state regulation and rampant money printing. When has that ever created prosperity? It never has. It never will.

It’s generating $1B directly to the federal government. It’s generating economic activity and job which results in greater tax revenue and lower expenditures. Even if it takes 34 years to return, it is still worth it. Government exists to make long-term investments.
When the government claims TMX is mega profitable (Tim Hodgson keeps saying $1 billion a year), remember that we BOUGHT IT for $34 billion. So it won’t be profitable for *34 years* at this rate, and that’s if oil demand doesn’t decline! (It will!) It very likely will NEVER be profitable:

I will wait 12 hours to save 100k
Canadians will wait in line for 12 hours at an ER, then look you straight in the face and say Canada is better than America

Proud to say that @redtorystandard has never accepted a penny from Conrad Black and Postmedia/National Post
I can't help but wonder what our lives would be like now if we had joined the U.S. 250 years ago. One thing is for sure: a nation that detests the ideal of personal liberty as paramount over crown and state is bound to be oppressive. I am not convinced we made the right choice.

Norway and The Gulf States notoriously regret nationalising their oil infrastructure.
Nationalizing oil infrastructure is never something to be celebrated.

The Oil Sands are nearly 750km away from Calgary—Yellowknife is closer to the Oil Sands than our own corporate hub. Why should people so far removed decide the future of the Oil Sands?
Ottawa is nearly 3,000 km away—Tijuana is closer to Calgary than our own capital. Why should people so far removed from Alberta decide our future? On October 19, vote Option 2 and make your voice count. #AlbertasChoice

No, we have our own history, our own account of 1776, and have forged our own destiny for our half of the continent.
Question of the day: Are Canadians just Americans with an identity crisis?

“We believe in American corporations owning our critical infrastructure and having our elected government by the balls”
This pipeline is a disgrace to the Spirit of Alberta. We are not a land of government projects and the nationalization of our industry. We believe in free enterprise, hard work, and entrepreneurship. This deal is a direct attack on our culture.

You wanna know how I'm confident that Carney is doing the right thing? He's pissing off the fringe left AND the fringe right. It's beautiful. And Canadians broadly love him for it.

If they didn’t announce the oil pipeline, none of that would have happened. Would be sunny skies and the perfect amount of rain.
CBC’s The National last night: Top story is the government announcing a new oil pipeline from Alberta and how it placated BC Then a story on the massive heatwave, storms and flooding in Ontario and Quebec Then a story on huge Manitoba flooding after they also dealt with tornadoes and rain It’s just so dystopian đŸ«

Personally, I this it’s awesome that Canadians and Albertans will build, own, and profit our energy infrastructure.
Alberta and Ottawa promised Canadians a new pipeline would only go ahead if a private company paid for it. Today’s announcement breaks that promise. Taxpayers are now going to be paying 90% of the cost — likely in the tens of billions of dollars. buff.ly/Ao6yGt3

An interesting alliance of actors is opposing the westcoast pipeline announced by Smith and Carney (and earlier by Eby). Environmentalists are mad and are joined by Alberta separatists.

The Federal Government is building Alberta their pipeline for them and paid off their primary opponent. Yet some Albertans are still mad just because they want it to go to the northern coast and be privately owned—which makes no difference to Alberta’s economy.

The pipeline is going to be owned by the Federal and Provincial governments. It’s building non-tax state revenue capacity—something the NDP used to champion. This is something Alan Blakeney would have done.
L’annonce d’aujourd’hui montre ce que ce gouvernement fĂ©dĂ©ral protĂ©gera par-dessus tout : les profits des grandes compagnies pĂ©troliĂšres. Alors que nous commĂ©morons le cinquiĂšme anniversaire de la vague de chaleur qui a coĂ»tĂ© la vie Ă  619 personnes en Colombie-Britannique – et alors que de nombreuses rĂ©gions du pays sont actuellement confrontĂ©es Ă  des conditions mĂ©tĂ©orologiques extrĂȘmes – les Canadiennes et Canadiens mĂ©ritent des dirigeants et dirigeantes qui les protĂšgent. Au lieu de cela, ce gouvernement persiste dans les solutions qui ont Ă©chouĂ© par le passĂ© et nous expose Ă  davantage de dangers, de risques et d’insĂ©curitĂ©. En raison de la structure de propriĂ©tĂ© obscure et confuse de ce partenariat public-privĂ©, il est trĂšs probable que nous, le public, devions non seulement supporter les risques et les dommages, mais aussi assumer la majeure partie des coĂ»ts. Les nĂ©o-dĂ©mocrates du Canada s’opposent sans Ă©quivoque Ă  ce projet de pipeline. Ce projet de pipeline ne mĂšnera qu’aux tribunaux. Il ignore la responsabilitĂ© lĂ©gale du gouvernement fĂ©dĂ©ral de consulter de maniĂšre significative les nations autochtones, y compris celles du TraitĂ© n° 8 en Alberta, menace les espĂšces en voie de disparition et accĂ©lĂšre le changement climatique. Il s’attachera Ă  semer les divisions que le Premier ministre prĂ©tend vouloir Ă©viter. Ce ne sont pas des projets qui dressent les communautĂ©s les unes contre les autres, tandis qu’une poignĂ©e de PDG des secteurs du pĂ©trole et du gaz empochent d’énormes bĂ©nĂ©fices, qui nous permettront d’atteindre l’unitĂ© ou la prospĂ©ritĂ©. Alors que nous restons enlisĂ©s dans les batailles du passĂ© autour des pipelines et que le Premier ministre admet ouvertement que nos Ă©missions vont augmenter, le reste du monde fonce tĂȘte baissĂ©e vers les Ă©nergies renouvelables. Nous ne pouvons pas nous permettre de prendre du retard pendant que d’autres pays construisent les industries de demain. Les Canadiens et Canadiennes mĂ©ritent mieux que de se voir dire que notre seul choix est de nous lancer dans une nouvelle bataille autour d’un autre pipeline. Ce pays a besoin d’une alternative au consensus libĂ©ral-conservateur qui mise encore plus fort sur un avenir fondĂ© sur des subventions aux entreprises qui dĂ©truisent le climat. Les nĂ©o-dĂ©mocrates sont prĂȘts Ă  bĂątir quelque chose de plus grand, de plus sĂ»r et de meilleur : un Canada qui soit une superpuissance en matiĂšre d’énergies renouvelables, dotĂ© d’un rĂ©seau Ă©lectrique propre reliant l’est Ă  l’ouest et offrant de bons emplois verts dans toutes les rĂ©gions. Des coĂ»ts rĂ©duits pour les familles grĂące Ă  la rĂ©novation des logements et Ă  l’installation de thermopompes pour tous. Investir dans l’économie des soins comme projet de construction nationale. VoilĂ  Ă  quoi ressemble la rĂ©alisation de grands projets qui unissent vĂ©ritablement ce pays.
