Kenney’s workaround emulates Quebec’s near-sovereignty autonomy, aimed at escaping fed policies rigged to bribe Quebec with Alberta money

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s father rolled out the National Energy Program in 1980 — a punitive tax grab for Alberta’s oil revenues to pay for the Liberal welfare state. Years later, Justin Trudeau did a redo by discriminating against Alberta’s oil industry to pay for his welfare state, phoney climate agenda and Quebec goodies.

Kenney’s workaround emulates Quebec’s near-sovereignty autonomy as well as is aimed at getting out from under the equalization transfer system and other fed policies that are rigged to bribe Quebec with Alberta money. This is policy malpractice on a grand scale. Attacking Alberta’s oil industry — the fourth-largest in the world — harms the province, its industry, its people, and Canada. In the past five years, Alberta’s economy has shrunk, unemployment soared and incomes declined.

Even loonier is Ottawa’s aim to destroy Alberta, the world’s “most responsible” producer, with low emissions from a democratic country with human rights. Canada’s oil industry is the envy of every country in the world and the 2019 election result is a damning indictment against the Liberals, NDP, Greens and Bloc Québécois as well as the two-thirds of Canadian voters who voted for them.

Kenneys real plan, fuck up the province so much it’s unrecoverable and blame it all on trudeau!

I thought they already started building the pipeline

More political quackery from Diane Francis.

Kenney has a lot more than Trudeau to worry about. The world is moving away from oil.

Just more NP con crap! Your editorial predictability is tiring!

Because it’s not diversification away from tar sands that will save Alberta ! 🤦🏽‍♂️ Remember the Stone Age did not end due to lack of stones...no pipeline will save the oil industry from obsolescence. Albertans voting for Kenny are literally hiding their heads in the tar sands.

Funny twist of Irony. It was the CPC_HQ, stephenharper, and jkenney that created the mess he claims to find himself in.... yet AB folks keep voting for them...

We'll get 4 more years of talk and nothing will change, because the East does what it wants and Alberta has no power to make them change.
