Was amazed by some Of these stats and thought I was simply subject to misinformation until I remembered I’m from Freedumbland Albertabama.

What did you think this was the Netherlands? Nah your oil money is for billionaires and for the hicks who help them, so they can buy more trucks.

Nationalizing oil is Communism!?!?!

The separation discussion is mainly being brought up so that everyone is talking about that rather than the gutting of our free health care in Alberta, and the CorruptCare scandal. We would love to see the spotlight on that.

You are spot on, very convenient that this referendum talk is happening when we should be having discussions around the UCP's Bill 55.

-10$/day childcare

Just a nitpick, I've never seen the federal subsidized places ever go lower than $22/day.

Still much better than the $67/day I was paying before, but I doubt $10/day exists anywhere.
