Maybe get your own facts right first before saying things like this? You literally claimed the NDP held the province before Lougheed did in another comment, which is painfully easy to disprove. You also claimed Lougheed’s Progressive Conservatives ditched the idea of diversifying the province’s economy when he literally set up the Heritage Fund as a means to save money for investment into other sectors of Alberta’s economy to do so.
I do not appreciate coming here with good intentions only to have someone insult my intelligence as they spew outright nonsense.
Also tariffs are only a detriment when they’re not strategically targeted. Canada has tariffs on American dairy because our domestic dairy industry would be destroyed with the influx of cheap milk from the U.S.A., where they literally pour the stuff down drains they have such excess of it. We need to protect our own domestic market, especially when it comes to essential goods like cooking oil.
Edit: Alright, upvote a guy who states literal false information that can be easily Googled, but downvote the guy who presents facts because he’s Albertan. Doesn’t matter if his politics aligns with the NDP or whatever, go off and downvote facts as “le epic own” because he’s from the boogeyman province. This hate is so forced and y’all oughta be ashamed of yourselves.
I downvoted because you are just toeing the usual ‘alberta is special and here is why the rest of you have to adapt’ bullshit that we have heard a million times. Get over it. We are not all misled into thinking that most of the province is regressive. That is how it is.
The majority of that province is hateful morons being super proud of themselves. I lived there for 20 years, my wife for all of her life. So don’t go saying I am just following the herd. The facts are simply that outside of calgary and edmonton the vast majority of albertans are insular xenophobes.
Are you seeing a ton of small towns in any other province where the town meetings are full of assholes bleating about wanting to join the US? Because I can tell you right now the acme, beiseker, trochu, three hills, irricana, and carbon, town meetings are FULL of these fucking people.
WHEN DID I AT ALL SAY THIS, YOU ARE PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH.
Also congrats on again blanketing Albertans as a whole. I can meet some jerks in Northern Ontario, and you won’t see me calling the entire province racist, but somehow that’s acceptable for you to do with Alberta.
Thanks, appreciate being casually called an asshole, racist, xenophobic prick based on where I was born.

If you choose to align yourself that way that is on you. I said ‘the majority’.
