They just need to say it was a 'comorbidity', and maga will dismiss it.

I do that too. If people don't laugh at my joke the first time, I just try again later.

I like this argument. A+ for creativity. Hopefully they paid some lawyer alot of money to come up with it.

Nope. We work with loonies and toonies on this side of the pond

I think the MOU was more about putting responsibility on Alberta to find a proponent and to stop Smith from continuing to blame the liberals. Look at the reaction at the UCP convention - divisions in the party appear when the common enemy is removed

I'm trying to understand your point. Businesses make money by being paid more for products/services than it costs to produce. Tariffs are an additional cost that skew the math, so businesses either make less money or increase prices. The Repubs claim to be pro-business, but cheer for Tariffs?

Who do businesses collect them from? And what do they do with the tariffs they collect?

Not sure if it was done for this reason, but Carney accommodating Alberta's demands has removed the common enemy that united the right, and is forcing the big tent party to do some internal reckoning.

If a private company thinks there's a business case, they can build one at no cost to the feds. I think the whole point is to mute a conservative attack (same reason the carbon tax was cancelled). Even Danielle Smith is being friendly now.

Well, if people would stop re-electing shitty provincial governments, maybe we could fix our own messes.

I'm from AB and lukewarm about another pipeline. However, there is a perception that big projects can't happen anymore, and this causes angst here in AB. I think showing willingness to support a big project (conditional on consultation, environment, etc.), is important.

From a political perspective, is this even possible? Seems like it would be toxic for anyone to touch it

I mean, D's argue about the pros and cons of the filibuster, while R's win because they say, "They're stealing your jobs and eating your cats!" Don't get me wrong, debates about the filibuster, etc. matter. But they don't win elections, and right now, D's need a win.

I see your point, and maybe you're right. Maybe R's would have backed down. But maybe they wouldn't until a bad situation got even worse. I think the real problems are (1) bad cadidates win primaries, and (2) D's keep losing elections.

My main point is this - the problem was created because the R's control all three branches. Blaming the D's for picking a bad one of the bad options is pointless. Real change happens at the ballot box (including the primaries for weak-ass senators)

If you want a metaphor, how about a gun, but being told to pick one of your kids. The longest shutdown in history has a real human cost, as will the loss of healthcare. It's a bad situation either way.

This isn't a hostage situation. It's a game of chicken where the other side doesn't care about the human cost. I don't know what a win looks like when people are harmed either way. The real issue is Rs control the house, the senate, and the presidency. That needs to change.
