I am sick to death of many things, now I will speak out against them. I have gone to Facebook prison on many occasions because I say what I am thinking, and some whiney babies are offended. Well, good for them we will buy them a bath sheet to cry into.
I am sick to death of lying monsters such as Donald Trump, the man with the ugliest mouth and insipid ignorance. Jason Kenney, the mealy-mouthed, mean incel, and Michelle Remple who always looks like she came out of a hedge in a drunken state after having a good time with a football team.
Years ago when BC was concerned about the Trans Mountain Pipeline. I stood with them and still do. They have every right to protect their land, coastline, water, and animals against leaking oil and gas pipelines, but they got stomped on by Alberta whining about their damned oil and gas. I live in Alberta at this time, well all my life but in two months I move to BC. Alberta and the rest of the country need to understand that oil and gas have had their heyday and have managed to pollute everything. We will never be totally free of it because of heating needs and a few other things. They must look to diversify and concentrate on more sustainable ways of energy and quit the whining.
Now I empathize with the native in BC who are against a pipeline coming across their ancestral lands. However, they are now even getting on my nerves and they are losing ground with those of us who support them. There are ways to get people on your side and blocking railroads is not that way. Yes, you want to get their attention but people out of work is not that way, there is and has to be a better way. I can see doing it for a couple of days but not for weeks. You want the RCMP off your land but when you have problems I have heard the tears flow that there are none around to help, they need to make a decision.
Now in the realm of bad decisions, Alberta. Number one bad decision was electing the UCP and Jason Kenney. Worst decision, ever. I sure didn’t but others did. He is slashing health care, my utilities doubled this month due to his funding cuts, he canceling contracts, going after doctors, privatizing medicare if none of that sounds horrible then he is wanting to commandeer peoples pensions of those who will retire in the future or already retired. There is more stupidity by him on the horizon. When he got in the first thing he did was give 4.7 billion dollars to the wealthy and large oil companies, with no strings attached. What a success that was, everyone, knows trickle-down economics never works and they happily took that money from a resounding idiot and left Canada not just Alberta and/or invested it elsewhere. We were in the middle of a recession but we were coming out of it before the population got incredibly stupid and elected him. So now he is trying to balance the books and regain his give away money on the backs of the disabled, poor, and seniors. As well as trying to steal people’s CPP and pensions of teachers along with canceling contracts of government employees and taking their pensions to invest in a company that only invests in fossil fuels and has lost many of those investments. That sounds like a great place to invest in, doesn’t it? What we have here with Jason Kenney who is madly in love with Trump is a mini Trump.
He said he would bring jobs back to Alberta but in the last three months alone he and his cronies have managed to kill more than 50,000 jobs. Then to make sure businesses want to come here he starts the Alberta will separate from Canada. What an absolutely stupid thing to say. The first time Quebec tried the separation ploy, they were okay. They tried it again and found out how big they lost. Well, companies planning to come here have decided to not do that because a place ranting about that shows an unstable economy and an unreliable future. So Jason Kenney and his unmade bed friend Michelle Remple are chirping about separatism again and driving people further away.
I can no longer live in this expensive and cruel province. I did entertain thoughts of staying at one point but there is nothing here I could afford and then with all the horrible things he is doing, my next step is a box under the bridge. I am done.
