Remember when Danielle Smith condemned the "arrogance" of a government for passing laws in a matter of days?

Now she's rammed through a law stripping teachers' charter rights in a single day.

Seems the "democratic process" no longer matters to her now that she's in power.

Honest question โ€ฆ. What is the purpose of senate committees. After RFKโ€™s appear nothing ever changes. Never walk back any stupidity they ever say or do. So what purpose do they serve??

Do you have numbers on current labor shortage? I see biggest issue being ag requires seasonal labor.

Our crew is 60 year olds not ready to retire but done with their โ€œjobโ€ and the after work 30 to 40 years olds who will book time off cuz they love farming

When told โ€œhow it workโ€ they are shocked.

They have no idea how export will get to port thru another country. Donโ€™t know how currency, defence nor how anything will work.

Alberta farmer here. My friends, farmers and non. Do NOT support separation. Although I know many that do. Those people do NOT know who developed equalization formula (Harper, Kenny et al), how Ab sends money to Ottawa (itโ€™s personal and corp income tax which they each pay)

USA and the White House in particular have just taken the lead in economic illiteracy. They donโ€™t know it yet but they will very soon.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he saidโ€”on history, economics and the technicalities of tradeโ€”was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq
