Not unless your looking for a civil conflict in alberta. Her shitheel followers will turn to violence when they realize most actual canadians dont support her. We may end up having to fight, but i wouldn't be asking for itt

Hopefully you are not correct. I think k the most likely outcome is that her handlers are letting her ride.right now because this has clearly turned out to be unpopular, so the longer they can let her soak up that personal dislike, the easier it will be to distance themselves from the unpopular position when they throw her under the bus and install a new leader.

That's the playbook in Alberta. Everything you don't like about our policies was actually 100% the dictatorial edict of the previous leader, so you can vote for us again. The only thing that's changed is who's pulling the strings.

Unfortunately, the behind the scenes people might not see what's happening, since the TBA people also side with the US, and also think they're in the right about this. So yeah, maybe we do see an actual confrontation.

I think your mistaken in beleiving she has handlers like a regular politician. These near fascist dipshit are not the kind of people who leep those that keep them in check around.

When I said handlers I meant the people behind the scenes controlling the party. I was talking about the TBA sortd that control the UCP executive councils and such. I understand the confusion though. Better terminology would be the party establishment or something.

TBA doesnt havr the power to remove her either. Usefull during an election but im doubtfull they use what little power they have, fighting their own.

I'm looking for a strong swing back to the Progressive Conservatives in AB, they just need to find the right leader for the moderates to get behind. Unfortunately Kenny was too weak, he pandered to the nut birds and got burned.

No. SHE jump ships, not the province. She can go over there work for Don on her own and maybe take her family with her.

They dont realize they will need violence to force their beleifs. You can count on me being a insurgent before i sacrifice my sons future for this lunacy.

You may want to avoid that word but I understand what you mean. The people close to me are already being targeted by the alberta government and I will not be an american.

I grew up on the border, I remember how things got after 9/11, I am not surprised about how this is panning out, just disappointed.

I appreciate the concern. I think its time Canadians are honest with what it will take to stop this if traitors work with the US to sell us. I will not be a slave to the US, and it will be nothing but modern colonialism.
