He is certainly milking the situation for all it is worth. And since I rather dislike him and his confrontational stance towards BC, I think he can go fxxk himself. There is absolutely zero chance Alberta can succeed in pulling through a Wexit thing since the legal hurdle to pull it off is just too high, and even if it does, it is an extremely stupid idea that is 100x worst for Alberta than it is for UK to Brexit.
But hey, I'm thinking this through under the assumption that most Albertans are sane, rational beings. |
Maybe it's just because I have family there so I may be biased but I can't understand this disdain for Albertans that I see from their westward neighbour. I mean I understand it, but I don't agree with it.
Albertans are good people. They work hard (when there's work to be done), they speak plainly, they're courteous, they usually smile and look you in the eye when you pass. You could strike up a meaningful conversation with about any stranger you see.
It's a stark contrast to what I usually see in a lot of the gvrd.
The consequences to their problems are serious. People are losing their homes. Suicides are drastically increasing. Families are falling apart.
It's hard to believe the lack of empathy I hear from a lot of people for a province that's given so much financially in the past.
Kenney knows wexit is a ridiculous idea. He's been vocal about that. But he's dealing with a lot of desperate and frustrated people
