THE NDP did wonders in ALBERTA with no PIPELINES! Absolute Joke of a Party!

[marcusaetius]

Nope Singh won’t force pipelines on anyone. But he will impoverish you....

Let's stop those oil tankers going up the St Lawrence right now!! How about it SINGH??? Shipments of oil by rail car only. More dangerous than pipelines, but who cares anymore!! Partial tanker ban on the west coast, but a different story on the east coast. I wonder why?? Maritimes and Quebec voted for the Liberals. Enough is enough!! Republic of Alberta. Free and strong!

[srouji]

So let Saudi Arabia and Russia supply us with Oil/Gas instead? Great Plan Jagmeet!

Getting a little tired of Jagmeet Singh's cutesy little "MR." name-calling sprees.
JAGMEET IS 'MR. JUVENILE'.

"Costed NDP platform proposes $32.7B deficit with big spending promises, new revenues" next year! HARD PASS!!

[charwest]

PPC is the only way to go. MAXIME BERNIER IS THE MAN FOR THE JOB.

if you want to cut down emissions the best system is to service delivery hubs that might use short-range electric vehicles with railways that might be electric - as Canada forces more and more oil and gas onto railways they lose the capacity to distribute goods efficiently. oil and gas don't want to be on the railway, they are much safer and more efficient in pipelines.


this is not the first time environmental hysteria has done more harm than good - consider the ethanol regulations that forced more food production into fuel production raising prices a little for us but a lot for developing nations - leading to the spread of unrest over the past decade


it's even possible that the Montreal Protocol 1987 and Acid Rain Treaty 1991 caused the subsequent global warming by removing aerosols from emissions and lowering the Earth's albedo


hysteria and misinformation are bad enough but mass delusions and disinformation are dangerous - when you put spineless, scientifically illiterate politicians at the head of a mob deliberately engineered into anger and fear by social physics you get reactionary legislation and it is prime pickings for charlatans and snake oil sales

House that Jack meets sing supporter I think his words were accurate

[booishoois]

In guessing ndp will win zero seats in alberta. They're going for bc and Quebec now. I wonder what powers mr singhs car and heats his homes in bc and ontario

[kotasbyubilieau]

And then give more power to Quebec even veto a pipeline?
