A vote for Nenshi is a vote for Singh

Carbon tax's, dental care and drug injection sites included


The second line of the provincial NDP constitution states:

“The Party shall constitute a section of the New Democratic Party of Canada.”

Clear enough. The Alberta party is a junior partner — one section — of a national movement.

Buy an Alberta membership, and you’re signed on with Singh’s party as well.

The Alberta party rules also say no bylaws may contradict “the constitution of the New Democratic Party of Canada.”

It seems the Alberta party would violate BOTH constitutions by declaring independence.

This is messy enough from a technical standpoint, but even worse as an internal NDP conflict.

Just days before the leadership vote on June 22, former Premier Rachel Notley surprised nearly everyone when she told me that any plan to separate is “silly, shortsighted, superficial.”

She said there was room to talk about how the parties work together but rejected “this idea of denouncing the federal NDP.”

Today was an important win for Canada and Alberta, as it appears the United States has decided to uphold the majority of the free trade agreement (CUSMA) between our two nations. It also appears this will continue to be the case until after the Canadian Federal election has concluded and the newly elected Canadian government is able to renegotiate CUSMA with the U.S. Administration.

This is precisely what I have been advocating for from the U.S. Administration for months.
It means that the majority of goods sold into the United States from Canada will have no tariffs applied to them, including 0% tariffs on energy, minerals, agricultural products, uranium, seafood, potash and host of other Canadian goods.

There is still work to be done of course. Unfortunately, tariffs previously announced by the United States on Canadian automobiles, steel and aluminum have not been removed. The efforts of Premiers and the federal government should therefore shift towards removing or significantly ...

Trump had the Liberals jumping up and down screaming we will retaliate, we will retaliate! The CBC, CTV and Global were all screaming trade war, trade war!

Then Trump imposed no tariffs, then POOF, the entire Liberal election platform was gone.
(I know there are a few, Steel, Aluminum etc)

Sent to my MP Garnett Genuis. I feel the same. Maybe enough to vote PPC.
