My location explains my sentiments towards GP..

Is this one of those times like, you are telling the cashier your buying your extra small condoms for a friend type deals, and really its you who doesn't think Bernier is very good?...
- aminnes

Nope... .DD and ASP are the ones with the small ... condoms.

The NEP saved Alberta man..

People need to educate themselves on what equalization payments really are. Sure Albertans pay more taxes, but only because they make more money. Rich people in other provinces pay the same as rich people here. How can you make 100gs plus and complain about money? I always ask my whinny alberta friends if they would rather be punching holes on paper for $11/hour? That's what I was doing before I moved over here, and I'm a trained machinist.

Alberta is the Pittsburgh Penguins of Canada. They "won a goddam lottery" with all the oil in their province.

It's not so much the payments, its that the need for it would be lesser if the provinces weren't spending so much debt... It's a deep philosophical difference about the role and size and scope of a good and sound government... I would concede that the reason you were making less money is because the place you lived was tapped out, there is no wealth left there. The only thing going for it is more and more people flooding into the service industry. Manufacturing took a hit because our pathetic loser governments give bailouts to massive corps and then those corps (GM among them) take that money and build in China. You would be making a lot more money if government debt was lower, your taxes were lower and there were less massive corporate entities running the government so they had to compete fairly in the market - including the big banks... So people feel provinces spending willy nilly when it is a shared system gives them a right to female dog... When they came out a month ago talking about adding the sales tax back in for the province people were pissed. People here want the gov to cut back to pay for Redfords mismanagement so its better in a few years, not tax them more to cover her stupid spending. So its a philosophical difference of opinion, one that Ontario and Toronto in particular shared back in the day, and it caused much uproar between Montrealers and Torontonians during those years in the 6 team league... Sorry, had to put a hockey reference in there, this is a hockey site after all...

Yeah it's definitly a problem. Calgary is trying to develope more hwys bit are cash strapped now. Stupid Anthony Henday is bumpy as (frank)..
- Arctic_AARDVARK

how is Calgary cash strapped?
they are on Alberta who apparently has tons of oil money.
connect dots....

Oil to pay for highways which carry cars that use Oil/Gas.

shouldn't be that hard to figure out.

He must have pushed them to the brink for them to be spouting off this explicitly in the media, man he must be an bumhole...

Yup. Honestly cant see him being on that team by the time the TD is over.

Canada+USA need to unite vs. China. That communist, overpopulated, polluted country doesnt play by the rules. Neither should we.

I'm worried they won't make deals

Purge this roster and rebuild right... Taking a hit on a player now ultimately benefits the team moving forward

I have the same worry... this nonsense about before the trade deadline not being the "right time"....

is it somehow going to be easier after the trade deadline?

Redford went ape shot spending billions to the point where she got the boot, people do not have a desire to go into debt, like i said earlier, one idea was to ad a sales tax and people said no... Roads are pretty much totally paid for through tax on gasoline...
