One month after finance ministers met to discuss the Alberta government’s intent to pull out of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) public opinion polling by the Angus Reid Institute suggests there’s little desire among Albertans or the rest of Canada to see Alberta leave the plan.
I fucking dare her
- to try
And I fucking dare Albertans
- to burn the damn – passport – drivers license – house deed – high school diploma
lol ;)
Edit: as a show of confidence, Smith voters should trade in their CPP stats over to her pension plan, indemnify her for blowing it on stupid shit like saving Christmas and fighting carbon taxes and deincorporating towns so they can form freedom villages and offering private schools charters that are actually diploma mills for the ignorant parents to charge the state to deprive their children of an education, etc. Lots of “work” to be “done” hehe
“Alberta’s young working population and more jobs with higher wages has resulted in Albertans over-contributing tens of billions into the CPP compared to the benefits we’ve received,” states a Government of Alberta video promoting the creation of an Alberta pension plan.
Aren’t the high wages (and young people) predominately because oil/gas? Are those not national natural resources?
The young people aren’t because of oil/gas - they’re mostly because Calgary and Edmonton are pretty decent in terms of services and actually affordable.
Are those not national natural resources?
They are not. The government of Canada owns 0.56% of fossil fuels in Canada. The majority of ownership is by private corporations. Canada’s natural resources have been sold to private companies. It’s their natural resources now.
Stop electing morons and this would be less of an issue
Oh yeah, my mother was pushed down the internet conspiracy theory rabbit hole by her idiot boyfriend over the course of the pandemic. Their latest dumbass move to was to relocate to Alberta because the political climate more closely aligned with their beliefs. Given that my mother is chronically ill, and it had taken years for her to find good specialists, I will not be surprised when I get the call that she’s died early because her disease isn’t being properly managed.
I’m sorry for my neighbors. People out here are more interested in punishing Trudeau than they are in improving their own lives
This is going to be the model for elections from now on.
Anger the population into electing an extremist party … convince the people to elect the extremist party … then after the election everyone wonders why the extremist party is doing extreme things … spend the next few years complaining about the extremist party … do it again at the next election cycle.
Thanks for exporting that south of the border. Or wait, is it thanks for importing that from south of the border? Either way, we all pay.
why does the photo look like instant meme?
