You can pretend that they don't want you dead...
but in actuality...
It started with the coalition government coming after your vitamins and supplements…lead into them wanting to reduce methane - which we all know means culling of herds to extinction and now they are coming after your vegetables too.
The New P2 plastic ban would thrust us back into 1970s-80s era for fruit and vegetables where a lot of items weren’t available year round, seasonally and locally grown only, and rotted in the grocery bags before you got them home.
On top of this, because of the added spoilage, in store, you can count on any item that is available to be a lot more expensive.
You see, in the 3% earnings that grocery stores are making, things like theft, spoilage and returned items that cannot be resold are factored in…and when you increase one of these factors, stores will consequentially push these prices on to YOU.
Now…look at affordability, where we’re at right now.
A lot of people aren’t able to buy a lot of fruits and only essentials on some veg and are instead subbing in ZERO value fillers to complete their meals…again, just like we did in the 70s-80s. Rice, pasta or potatoes as meal fillers…potatoes as available.
And when you consider that the processed grains are leading to the on-growing problem of obesity and malnutrition…you’d have to wonder why anybody would make these more abundant for consumption by driving up the costs and lowering availability of better quality foods…if they cared about their health.
As for beef, in case you missed it, 3 days ago the government released this:

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

Listening to Ganum today on the meeting that Premier Smith is having with Lukasek I am wondering why not just have his referendum on the vote in October? If enough say no to his question isn't it the same as a referendum that the other side wants? I for one want this to wake up the East and don't care how it happens. Another caller said she needs to call an provincial election in October and take the rest of questions off the ballot - this could be risky but I am leaning toward it as terrified that the NDP will get in again and right now Nemshi is their handicap IMHO.
