Yes, Alberta is getting raped with transfer payments. Yes Eastern Canada loves hating us and wishing us ill while laughing all the way to the bank. Yes elections are over the moment Ontario and Quebec finish voting relegating Western Canadians to non combatants in a war zone and second class citizens inside their own country whose vote holds neither meaning nor importance. And yes, Western Canada (Alberta in particular) is speculating on separating from Canada.
And of that list, separation from Canada is the only non reality. Even for Quebec.
The number one reason...the Indians, natives, Metis, 1st Nations and the rest of the aboriginals have a bigger say than people can remember. Try building a golf course in Quebec. They shut down roads, they were armed and there were violent stand offs with the police. ANY separation deal of any kind would have to include them at the table or there would be hell to pay. Repercussions be damned.
Alberta is a resource loaded economic power based predominantly on oil. We would need to establish our own trading partners. With no pipelines to either BC, Eastern Canada, Northern Canada or South to the US, Alberta would be hard pressed to get their product to market. This in turn would affect the value of any currency put into play to replace the Canadian Dollar...although it would be nice to no longer deal with a currency people cant take seriously. We call our dollar the Loonie??? History aside, its insulting.
And what about pre existing deals companies in Alberta have that needed Federal government approval...or funding? Provincial projects. Where "half" the money is coming from Ottawa. Federally funded programs.
There are 1 million people in Edmonton. About the same in Calgary. And maybe a million more in various other communities about the province. 3 million people. We would need our own police, military and air force. What we currently have here belongs to Canada, not Alberta. 3 million people. We wouldn't be able to defend ourselves if the entire city of Toronto up and decided to invade us.
Then there are the banking and medical institutions that would need to be put in place. A constitution would have to be drawn up. Think its bad now?
Yes it would be fantastic to draw a line in the sand, give Eastern Canada the one finger salute while playing Billy Joel's "Im Moving Out". But the simple truth of it is we simply don't have a sufficient enough infrastructure or population to make this a practical reality.
Its like the Americans saying if Trump gets elected they are moving to Canada. A lot of huff n puff. A lot of bitching and whining. Sure its an alternative, but not a practical one.
Alberta wont separate from Canada. We cant. Its not practical. We have too much to lose. Unless a population equalization plan is brought into effect, until the population of Alberta is close or equal to that of Ontario...Western Canada will always be the tail the dog wags.

Rachel NOTley Is A DICTATOR!
65% of Albertans do NOT approve of the NDP's Carbon Plan. But she's pushing it through anyway. Politicians are supposed to be Public Servants serving the people. She never campaigned on the issue. It was NOT part of her platform. She hid her true agenda knowing she would NEVER get elected if the people knew her true intentions.
This is called being a DICTATOR! Which she is. Anyone regardless of their experience who opposes her views is ignorant and doesn't know what they are talking about. Its actually te other way around.
Her party has driven up taxes, closed 5 towns, driven investment out of Alberta and helped separate Alberta from the rest of Canada. She wont promote Alberta's oil and has gone on record apologizing for Alberta instead of defending Alberta. She even told unemployed Albertans and people who lost their livelihood to MOVE TO ANOTHER PROVINCE. WTF?
Ever facet of business has been hit but she refuses to even consider laying off a single public servant. Let the lowlifes who actually work for a living with no job security take the brunt of the recession is her view.
The bitch has got to go. I have never HATED someone in my life. It took 50 years but she did it.
RACHEL NOTLEY...I FUCKING HATE YOU. You will never get re elected and I hope the door breaks your ass on the way out and knocks you into oncoming traffic. I wont shed a tear and would dance on your grave.
I will never recognize you as this province's premier. A premier helps the province and its people. Your policies have added to the recession and you don't care one iota about the people.
N ow D irt P oor is what she has made this province. I am ashamed to call my self an Albertan thanks to her.

WOMEN ARE NOW MORE SEXIST THAN MEN
Mens Club. Doesn't exist anymore. Men have no where to go to escape from women. They have pushed and shoved their way into every men's only establishment failing to realize its why we go there. To get some space away from you.
Recently, studies have surfaced showing post secondary gradutes are now 65% women. That's great. But the underlying cause of that statistic is very much more sobering. All or most men's only post secondary institutions have been forced to go coed. YET NOT 1 SINGLE WOMENS ONLY INSTITUTION HAS GONE COED! Not a single one. Every one forced to accept women because they were screaming...SEXISM!!!
Women are Hypocrites. My wife calls them bitches. Women also use the threat of sexual assault as a weapon and men are scared. They want an institution that's male only oriented without the distraction/threat of women. Just the threat or insinuation of a sexual assault can ruin any chance of a career. And so men are choosing not to enroll in post secondary institutions or choosing ones with low female enrollment.
LADIES...we are terrified of you now. You want a place to go where you feel safe and aren't ogled...Spa Lady. Fine...we want a place away from you where we feel safe and you aren't a distraction. You went from being feminists to sexists. Why is a male only learning institution not an option when you have female only learning institutions? That's pure bullshit.
And where do most couples meet? At University or college. The ripple effect has now hit the family unit and more people are single finding it harder to meet people. Don't laugh. I didn't do the studies. This in turn means the government has to allow more immigrants in to help sustain the countries population and continued growth.
Sexual assault is wrong and needs to be reported. But the cases of wrongful sexual assault are mounting and good men have had their reputations destroyed by vindictive women. This coupled with women's need to invade every facet of the male life has led to this end result.

MY VOTE DOESNT COUNT
I live in Alberta Canada and when we hold a Federal Election to elect a new Prime Minister, my vote doesn't count. Because 75% or there abouts...that's my guess...of the population of Canada live in Ontario and Quebec, if these 2 Provincial views align, then the election is over before I even get to cast my ballot. The entire countries election decided by 2 provinces.
Stephen Harper was from Western Canada but in order to win the election, he had to sell the farm to pay off Quebec. As soon as he lost Quebec's support, he was done.
So in a world where 2 provinces dictate who runs the country and me not living in either of them...when an election is over before I get a chance to vote...
Why the hell should I even bother. My vote doesn't/wont change a thing. Put simply...
My vote doesn't count. Im not even a second class citizen in my own country.
In Provincial Politics, the NDP were elected in Alberta. They have doubled the debt, raised taxes, have driven investment out of Alberta and have refused to promote Alberta instead forcing green energy programs down our throats shutting down towns, put tens of thousands of people out of work and making basic household energy needs beyond the price most Albertans can afford to pay.
AND PEOPLE VOTED FOR THIS? This was the worst possible outcome for the people and province of Alberta. That's not my opinion, that comes from financial experts.
So if voting achieved the worst possible outcome of an election, (I have NEVER voted NDP, NEVER will) because the young and stupid refuse to educate themselves (and they are considering lowering the voting age to 16) then why should I give a crap and vote. They already wrecked my life. Let them wreck theirs too. I'll be retired in 15 years. They'll be paying for this mistake for the rest of their lives.
And as for the Popcorn Playhouse they call Municipal Politics...money talks.
So...Im have been presented with enough incentive to never vote again. And I choose to turn my back on the religion of man uniquely disguised as Politics. It a joke. Im treating it as such.
Im never voting again.

Morning Glory a Refreshing Movie
Rachel McAdams (sp?) does an incredible job of being a completely lovable cute woman trying to turn around an AM morning TV program. Harrison Ford is always fantastic and does a great job being the grumpy old news anchor and Diane Keaton the longest serving employee battl it out for the number 1 anchor spot. A refreshing comedy of sorts based on a News program on the cusp of being cut.
A fantastic family movie, enjoyable in its own right.

Worst Ever James Bond Opening Theme Song
And the winner of the WORST EVER James Bond 007 opening theme song is...
SPECTRE'S-SAM WEST for his god awful, cat screaming on a fence attempt to put lyrics to an otherwise not bad melody.
I love the song Dream Weaver, but I cant hit those high notes at karaoke. And that's where his rendition belongs. A karaoke bar could produce better results with this melody.
To be fair, he doesn't sound that bad when he stays away from the high notes. As an artist he should know his limits, but instead forces his way through notes he simply cant pull off. I cant make it past the first 10 seconds of the theme song. I skip it EVERY time.

EBAY EMPLOYS UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES
Ebay is ripping of its International customers with its global shipping program. ONLY the US participates because they exploit other countries custom laws. Why isn't this program set up in other countries? We aren't offered this in Canada. There is no Ebay Global Shipping Program for Canada. We don't have a center where my parcels get sent to first.
As a Canadian, we are now being charged customs on items that we never paid customs on before. And do you think for a moment that Canada Customs is willing to share its customs fees with Pitney Bowes and Ebay? No, so ebay is now charging made up fees to accommodate this.
In short, Ebay is engaging in UNETHICAL BUSIESS PRACTICES.
Ebay is now for me just a online comparision shopping. I find what Im looking for, get the proper name and then I look for it OFF or OUTSIDE Ebay in Canada. They have made international shopping on Ebay impractical.
I have stopped doing it almost all together. I only buy from private sellers NOT enlisted in the Ebay GSP.
Because for the most part...Ebay is a rip off now.
