You're driving down the highway. The radio broadcasts an interview with a UCP MLA. You remind yourself, like the weather, wait 5 minutes and the lie will change.
It's like Fraser Institute protocol. Cherry picking data from government sources and adding data from their own network to shore up the arguments for businesses.

I stand corrected, thank you.

Professional sports has always been plagued by corruption, imo because it was constructed as a money making scheme barely operating within the law. The temptation to operate with more grandiose scams is too enticing to resist. It does have it's positives, now we can make up hashtags like #antiFIFA

Nothing suspicious here, right? All those tax dollars paid out, you would think that's the end of it, but they are still going ahead with strip mining Grassy mountain. Somebody had it right, the Aussies are profiting from our courts not shovels.

Perhaps they're using their own legislative disasters as the shock disaster for removing rights and changing laws. I haven't forgotten these new "tools" as the UCP likes to call them are for stamping out rights, and absolving themselves of conviction.

I'd like to see thee reason why coal companies received such a large payout. What dirt was hidden by that move?

I meant no disrespect. I've read all these articles faithfully and I accept the points of the articles in general. I respect your professional knowledge in the current political system and seek it to improve my own.
I'm always dismayed when you associate them with Tories instead of just populists.

So the 1%'s are conspiring to carve up the map. We've seen this back when Stalin and Hitler carved up Europe before ww2. What great nations will save us this time, China? China itself steeped in controversial government management of it's citizens. We need a fucking party for the people to step up.

Please stop calling the "new generation" of conservatives, conservative if they are not. You are enabling them to continue deceiving voters passing themselves off as familiar political parties. In the US it's republicans and maga, in Canada it's tories and populists, who are these magopulists?

I hope you have a relaxing trip, take time for some fresh mountain air. There is one possible reason for maintaining possession of assault rifles, Alberta doesn't have an army. How are they going to train and supply an army? Wait for the next boom or conscript Albertans into volunteer brigades?

I'm surprised these maga wannabe conservatives between elections, take breaks from backstabbing each other for leadership, and then convince voters they're the party of integrity, trust, and financial stability.

The Neoliberals, the guys at the top I lately been calling the 1%. Have been organizing since conception to change government and monetary policy. Consider the ON., Att Gen report and the crap here in Alberta as an example of their monetary policy.

It's mostly PR, when you get a chance to read some of whats been peddled by the 1% you'll see it's twisted from the truth. You've probably already noticed here in AB what they say isn't what you think it means. Like, life will be better, and it is for the wealthy and corporate investors.

You have to be fair to the canon fodder, or Alberta Volunteer Brigades as the government will likely label the conscripts, and arm them with something when Canada invades.
