Consumer prices in Alberta rise higher than Canada

[Walter]

Booming economy will do that.

I tell ya taxslave.. If and when BC gets their collective butts into gear, your province has the real potential to dominate on any scale.

Multiple, protected deep water ports. Massive forestry opportunity, liquids rich nat gas, fisheries and mining.

At some point, the public will holler 'Uncle' in response to never ending tax grabs and maybe then a political movement that allows for responsible development can occur.

BC is a great province, I really love it a ton, but I have no idea how you put up with the shenanigans that goes on in gvt



Sheesh... Look into the timing on those projects and events... You might want to cross reference that against the Premier that initiate the actions.

I was born here. You have no idea how frustrating it is to have all these freeloaders and rich retirees move to my province and tell us we must not work because it disturbs the lifestyle they want for themselves.

Seems Prentice wants Alberta to be known as an environmental leader.

This must have some of the usual suspects quaking in their booots.


Jim Prentice’s green ideas for the oil sands - The Globe and Mail

Hate to break your little bubble sunshine but they already are and have been for quite a few years now. Just one more fact the anti work crowd hates to admit.

How many HP? L?

My beast is 12.9L 516HP pulling a 60ft seed hawk followed by a 800 bushel seed tank followed by an anhydrous rig all drawing off the PTO while pulling at 6mph.

I like to run it at 2050 to 2100rpm.

I still run windows XP. works just fine.

Of course you do.

[gerryh]

Ya, we already know what your speed is. You didn't need to repost it.

 

[petros]

13.5 Liter but at only 380hp, pulling nothing, but it pushes and digs like
no other loader I've been in. That's a seven yard bucket too. Foot on
the floor all the time so 2100-2200rpm regardless of whatever gear
it's in. You want a different speed? Pick a different gear, but foot on
the floor all the time.

The is nothing like the feel of that kind of power.

Twin spools make up for less cubes. Without the extra HP it would be 33% slower seeding at 4mph. Screw that!

 

[Cannuck]

So Prentice is a greentard too then.

Good to know.

The Alberta Conservative Party are "greentards". I'm sure you are unaware but environmental regulations are, for the most part, stricter in Alberta than Saskatistan. I know that must upset you.

 

[petros]

It's probably more upsetting 20% of synthetic already goes to the US by rail.

 

[Locutus]

Of course you do.

probably CAA members in case of uh, 'emergencies'. :lol:

 

[petros]

Plastic? Too ecofriendly for me.

 

[mentalfloss]

probably CAA members in case of uh, 'emergencies'. :lol:

Ha.

Okay I'll give ya that one.

What's funny about the whole oil-by-rail thing is that if and when a derailment occurs, the hue and cry will be about oilsands polluting the earth and not so much about the mode of transport being more risky.

... All the while, the various earth-rangers mewing and bleating on saving Gaia whilst sipping on their $6 lattes and driving to the protests in Land Rovers

CP moves oil at night so nobody sees how much is being moved at a time. Moonbats would **** if they knew what they created.

Would they be upset enough that they snort some of their ethical coffee out their nose?
