    first lesson in business, cutting prices destroys profits.
    as i learned the hard way , in one little venture.

    first the competition will drop them too.
    then you're both worse off.

    provinces reducing their cut is stupid.
    the race to the bottom.

    we have seen it already, Norway never cut royalties , and never gave up their stake in the business.
    they are swimming in money.
    alberta on the other hand , kept cutting, and kissed ass , whenever requested.
    where are they now?

    grant devine tried the same thing, did not work then , will not work now?
    open for business , sold a whole bunch crowns and still , left us a billion in debt.

    conservative economics. danny williams being the exception.

    if wall was smart , alberta and sask would be the same rate.

      There were times I thought the western provinces should join and make one big province. But look what Alberta did and BC is acting not much better. Again, I say we need a hellofa leader to come in and turn this bus around. It's pretty easy to govern when oil is over a hundred dollars a barrel, but what you do with the wealth is the true test. There is so much waste. I'd like to see how much taxpayer money is being frittered away daily so we can have group parties like gay parades.

        There are no virtues for the ndp in Alberta but don't be fooled that the conservatives did much either...these boom and bust cycles all come back to the taxpayer. ...so why the conservative brag they do great things is beyond me....because to pay for it it doesn't come from the resources but my pocket...

        And now Wall is using tax dollars to being companies here that will leave a bill when they are done....

          Lol. I wouldn't worry this will cost much money. Maybe Brad Wall has never seen Calgary. I doubt companies will convince a lot of people to move.

              Brad has to go after bigger fish....the kind that gets you on an intervenous of federal money....


              Like a ford engine plant or auto sector or the real lottery ticket win of aeronautics....that's who he should be writing the letters to.

              New models every year....

                so when a farmer screws up on a crop does it make the screw up OK if the neighbour screwed up worse?

                  Really?

                    Sask lost a new build of a 400,000,000 (or 100,000,000 I can't remember) Pea starch and protein to Manitoba because... they had lower power rates?

                    This is new infrastructure, new industry, that should be built in Sask where peas are grown. They can't take infrastructure away.

                      Alternative facts.

                      They are building one in moose jaw. Different company building one in portage.
