Luckily Alberta bucked that trend. With the UCP at the helm we managed to lose 19,000 jobs! What great news to all you people who voted UCP!

And that has nothing at all to do with the anti-oil national government.

Assumes facts not in evidence.

The Federal Government bought a pipeline, how can they be anti-oil?

The federal government only bought it to save face because Kinder Morgan, the original owner, saw TMX as more trouble than it was worth because of the petulant bumpkins that inhabit the West Coast. Had the federal government had the backbone to put the childish British Columbian politicians like Horgan in their place, then they would not have spent over four billion dollars of taxpayer money on the pipeline.

And yet that same pipeline is filled to capacity and generating revenue that goes toward General revenue. They are also working on the expansion of the pipeline, right now.

So how can the government be anti-oil, with oil revenues incoming and expansion construction under way?

Ask me again when the federal government makes a their decision on the Teck Frontier mine and I will be able to give a more definitive answer.

So, that assessment over a project yet to begin somehow negates their doing everything they can right now to get more oil moving out of Alberta?

Are they? It's not just the TMX expansion we need, and even the Feds appear reluctant to do that. Former PMO Chief Secretary Gerald Butts is anti-oil (having been the president of WWF Canada) and likely holds considerable influence over the Prime Minister due to their longstanding friendship.

Plenty of worker shortage around here. If I wanted a job, I think I could find one in under an hour.

Cost of production vs price of barrel equals what in this case?

Ezra Levant has solid evidence that he can’t share with you proving that the liberals only bought that pipe so they could smoke the world’s largest bowl. The BC Bud goes in the west end and you toke it from the east end.

This is veering off-topic, but thought it would bear mentioning.

Cost of Trans Mountain expansion soars to $12.6B

It will take a long while before the revenues generated from the expansion (and expect civil disobedience from the usual suspect to gum up the works) will pay off the money the Feds spent buying the pipeline AND expanding it. Even if they aren't anti-oil, the Liberals are still comically inept as they didn't even have to buy the pipeline in the first place.

What-ifs aside, they are spending money to improve oil markets for Alberta and giving people some jobs, to spite the UCPs efforts to raise the unemployment rate.

Actions to me speak louder than propaganda.
