So what are you saying, you don't think new Brunswick is going to bounce anytime soon?

No grass you insult all parties with your out of touch Socialist agenda.

It doesn't work it never had and never will.

Keep telling your self you got it all figured out.

A Troll is a troll is a troll.

Actually Grassy is about right on this time.

Most of the first ones to be let go in the patch were just standing around keeping the real workers company. No loss in production and a huge gain in productivity.

Same goes for some of the companies that got swallowed or came floating up belly up.

Capitalism at it's finest.

The ones left out there are the best and the brightest. Most will tell you things arn't that bad recently.

Oil's imminent demise is highly exaggerated.

Even if Mr Trudeu says we have to get Ft Mac shut down.

Spell chek that for me grassy.

Finance Minister Joe Ceci released the second quarter fiscal update today. Oil revenues are up from what was projected but personal and corporate income tax still below projections and still over $10 billion in debt. Where are all the benefits of this strong growth?

Why doesn't Alberta use a Provincial sales tax instead of resource revenue as a better source of stable revenue? This would reduce Alberta's boom and bust cycle that challenges government budgets.

Chuck wants taxes so he can finally buy cheaper subsidised solar power system.

[chuckChuck]

Binthere do you not remember the Fraser institute reports that showed Alberta businesses get just as many business subsidies per capita as Quebec?

Surprise Surprise many Alberta businesses and jobs are dependent on tax payer subsidies!

Pretty good for a province that likes to portray itself as independent, hard working, better than the rest of the country kinda of place.

[blackpowder]

We dont have to portray anything as long as you stay in Saskatchewan.

Boom

Alberta Credit rating drops again!

Oh it still isn’t the NDPs fault.
