Trudeau and Singh don’t want Alberta to stay in Canada

-

Editor:

It didn’t take long for our sort of freshly minted federal government to vigorously renew its attacks on the oil industry and therefore Alberta. As an Albertan, I get the message. Trudeau/Singh incorporat­ed don’t want Alberta to remain in Canada. Destroying the oil industry is official federal policy. Devastatin­g the Alberta economy and the well being of its citizens is just a bit of collateral damage in the noble and urgent quest to save the world.

Of course, if the oil industry were located in Quebec, the regulation­s would disappear, pipelines would flourish and government subsidies and support for the oil industry would be the cornerston­e of federal government energy policy. If anyone should think this an exaggerati­on, I have a very prosperous gopher ranch for sale and I’ll let you have it at a real discount.
