Alberta moving out of recession into modest recovery: quarterly update
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
Trump is the President of the US.
You should make up your mind
Is Trump setting Alberta policy? Not sure how he is relevant here at all. But I suspect you were trolling. My bad for falling for it.
The issue isn't Trump but the idea that taxes hurt the recovery. Simpletons like you think a Notley tax hurts and a Trump tax helps. I'm simply pointing out your hypocrisy and making fun of you.
That's what separates ideologues like you from sensible people like me.
Cannuck and common sense don't

and a Sniffety sniff to you
I am going to say this once and once only to you. I am not a Trump supporter. Never have been. I think most of his policies are not well thought out or will not work for the USA in the long run. That being said, I think Hillary would have been worse so you may have confused my Hillary bashing for Trump support. I did believe he would win and have enjoyed the meltdown of the leftards here when he did. But don't count my enjoyment of their heads exploding as support for Trump.
And the thought of you being sensible .... thanks for today's laugh. A really good one.
Sniffity sniffty sniff sniffles
If only I had a hundred dollar bill for every Trumpite I've heard lately say, "I'm not a Trump supporter. I just hated Hillary"
The level of backpedaling is staggering. It's good to see you can at least see the errors in Trumpism. One down, a few million to go.
Reprieve would be a better term as it was in the same industry that laid them off in the first place and it could happen for an even longer period of time.
Recovery would be an industry that is immune to the ups and down in employment in any part of the oil patch. Logging and grain would be examples.

I have NEVER supported Trump. Bernie was my horse (and he lost). Call me a Trumpite again, I will reward you with a thumbs. You can guess the direction.

OMG!! Not a thumb!!
I get such a kick out of sniffily Trumpites
OMG...IRBS sure wasn't kidding.

Smart climate policy is crucial to Alberta’s prosperity
Last year, we, along with a group of 120 investors with more than $4.6-trillion in assets under management, wrote to the Government of Alberta asking it to take a longer-term view on climate change.
Story continues below advertisement
We encouraged the government to implement a robust and credible climate policy crucial to the future success of Alberta-based companies. We said a broad-based and credible price on carbon is essential to address climate-change risks effectively. We not only supported the government of Alberta taking substantive steps to strengthen its climate policy, but argued such steps are absolutely necessary to ensure Alberta's success as a favourable investment jurisdiction.
Experienced investors – and businesses – do not blindly follow short-term trends. They are not jittery, distracted or easily led astray. They set long-term strategies and implement them effectively and consistently. However, without sound policy certainty, such strategies cannot take place.
It is important to set the stage for a just transition that helps Alberta workers, communities and businesses with the shift to a lower-carbon economy that provides steady, sustainable and well-paid jobs where they are needed.
Which is why decisive government action – including regulating potent methane emissions in the oil and gas industry; providing the right market mechanisms, such as progressive carbon taxes; and supporting innovation and investment in new technologies and industries by recycling revenues into targeted incentive programs – has never been more important.
