No I’ll leave that to you.. you’re doing such a great job now PiGS

Never said I hate the USA, I don’t like Trump.

I’m not very happy with Trudeau either, but it’s who we have as PM, not much I can do but live with it for a few more years..

So hard to keep track of who you like and who you don't. First you like Trump, then you don't. First you hate Trudeau, then you like him and now you dislike him again. Do you have a giant wheel to make these decisions on a daily basis?

I said your old man (your father) must have been a doozy...because you're a mess.


Like I said, elaborate. Lets see what that tiny little drugged out brain of yours can come up with.



BTW, you still diddling your daughters?

I was just wondering who the catalyst was for this walking tragedy, that is you.

I'd forgotten why I swore off communicating with you. It's once again obvious to me. You never fail to depress.

No, what you did was show how much of a brainless twat you are. Can't go toe to toe on a personal level, gotta bring in family. I have no problem with that, if that's what you want to do, but I guarantee, you will lose in the race to the bottom. And the best part for me, I'll go to bed laughing knowing that you'll have to medicate yourself.

That's okay. Despite my mental health challenges, I've never wanted to be anyone else but me. I figure it could always be worse...I could be someone like you.

gerryh is proof that age and wisdom don't always go hand in hand.

I tell my teenage daughters all of the time..."Think for yourself. Just because someone is older than you, doesn't mean they are smarter than you."

And gerryh is a textbook example of why I keep hammering home this advice to them.

And I tell my teenage and early 20s grand daughters, "I'm older than you and you should start listening". :)

Two different courses of the Trans Canada Highway plus the CNR plus the CPR plus the Algoma Central are all built over thousands of kilometers of muskeg north of Lake Superior.

We have the technology.

You just have to do maintenance on them as they slowly sink into the goo.

Two lane garbage. When are you building a real highway instead of paying for access to US highways?

Eh dumb ass it ain’t about Trump, it’s about economics.

If BC & Montreal doesn’t want our oil.. or the rest of Canada.. you align with folks who want your product.

It seems that Alberta has more in common with the neighbors to the south.

Canada just uses Alberta for our money but doesn’t want our oil?! Screw Canada. Alberta should cut off the transfer payments until the pipeline is built and oil is flowing.

No oil, no money buddy

Well, he might be an improvement over what we have!


There's no doubt some are.

Now you get it... gerryh is about the lowest piece of shit on this forum..

He tends to try and project his way of life on others.. if ya know what I mean. ;)

He’s not civil, he’s got a screw loose.. but that’s gerryh for ya.

Out of fairness, Gerry is his own man with a few values!

From the article:
province (Alberta) contributed $221.4 billion more in revenue than it received in federal transfer payments and other services in those years (2007 - 2015).

Anyone that thinks that AB (or Sask for that matter) can't exist without the benevolent intervention of the Canadian Feds is dreaming.

If any Cdn jurisdiction (I'm thinking BC, Ont or Que) believes that they can dictate Fed policy to any other region, they might wanna think twice

Maybe we should just transfer all the oil money to the Feds and let Alberta go.

Provincial control of resources seems dated in this day and age,
