Albertan Secession? Oilpatch giant sours on Alberta crude cuts, warns changes put jobs at risk- January 29, 2019,
It sounds silly right now, I know it does, but there’s a movement happening in Canada, that Leftist won’t be able to control if Trudeau wins a second term. It’s early 2019 and the assumption by most Conservatives is that Trudeau will lose the Federal election this fall to Andrew Scheer. I, on the other hand, am not so ignorant, I think it’s very likely that Justin Trudeau will win a minority government this fall. Trudeau is Canada’s Leftist Trump, both come from well to do families, the difference being of course that Trump’s father made his fortune in Real Estate whereas Trudeau’s father made most of his money from Politics, yes, I’m aware that Justin Trudeau’s grandfather was an Oilman, but without a shadow of a doubt Pierre Trudeau’s fortune came primarily via Politics.
That aside, Trudeau, for the most part, has played the part, he’s played the part of a victim, he’s played the part of being for the poor and he’s played the part for legalizing Cannabis, he’s made good for the people that got him into office in the first place. These people these Billionaires, these special interest groups will have Trudeau’s back in the upcoming election. I also suspect a few smear campaigns headed Scheer’s way that will keep him at bay and I know the majority of Canadians aren’t comfortable yet with the idea of Mad Max becoming Prime Minister. What Trudeau has done unfortunately is he’s lessened the need for the NDP, which to me equates to most leftists that would otherwise vote NDP this election siding with Justin Trudeau, just to make sure Andrew Scheer doesn’t win.
Once the reality hits Alberta and Conservative Canadians that they’re going to have to put up with Justin Trudeau for another 3 years, that’s when we’re going to see a divide. The CBC article below revolves around Rachel Notley, however everybody by now, knows, that Trudeau and Notley are working in tandem to delay as many oil projects as possible, they along with the Globalists they serve have been trying to put this into motion for years, for the most part Canadians have been silent, a few protests here and there, but nothing major really and this is why the Leftist will push to change the energy sector in Canada to be more Green or eco-friendly.
What’s my opinion on this? Well, Canada has a petrol dollar, so as I’ve been saying for some time, our economy is heading for an economic collapse if the economic crash doesn’t happen sooner than later. Canada has some of the cleanest air and water on the planet, I think our air quality is 2nd in the world. My thoughts on Alberta’s dirty oil? Well, I think if the government would have gotten out of the way, had Canada not opted for a weaker Loonie and if Canada had more Green engineers and more of a State Capitalist model for the Oil Patch, we’d be in a far better position. But as I’ve stated in plenty of posts Canadians are Protectionists and Socialists.
This arrogant attitude of ours will only be corrected by the market. Things have worked just as they are for far too long. Even when I listen to the Rebel.media when they attack Trudeau, they tend to avoid talking about their own systematic flaws. Most Canadians are anti-free market. I hear it all the time, immigrants are lowering wages? WTF, no not enough Canadians are becoming entrepreneurs, that’s the real problem, another group of people can’t lower wages when there are entrepreneurs, becomes what tends to happen when there are lots of entrepreneurs are joint ventures wherein all parties involved work as private contractors. The issue with Canadians is that we’re heavily reliant on external forces to employ the domestic population.
This happens because a lot of Canadians for years have been pushing to protect industries, using Unions to push payscales up, unions in Canada are heavily influential in the government, and what most unions in Canada do is they price out competitors, which in turn makes costs go up, which in turn puts a lot of pressure on the Bank of Canada to make sure the Canadian dollar doesn’t get too high, no in this near zero percent interest rate market, what this has led to is real estate price inflation, via CMHC the housing market is protected from massive losses. Which of course hurts Canadian businesses who lease property and Canadian renters who now pay more for less.
All of this stuff is interconnected and the longer this economy takes to crash the harder it will be to correct.

Why all of this may lead to an Albertan Secession? Is because although Canada has a Petro Dollar, on it’s own Alberta could do fairly well, now obviously the complications of an Alberta secession revolves around Aboriginal treaties, but if those details are worked out you never know what could happen. Why I write all of this is because the Canadian dollar is overvalued right now, the only reason the Canadian dollar is holding its value is the perception that we’ll eventually get it together. The market belief is that the debt bubble we have will be fixed in due time.

The problem is the reality of Canadian thinking is very different, there are different movements happening in Canada, one is the Snowflake Leftist movement and the other is the Conservative movement. The Conservative movement in Canada is more structured than the snowflake leftist movement, however, make no mistake about it, a large number of Canadians want to preserve our social safety nets and our protectionist and welfare systems. Sure they’re unsustainable, but as long as the Leftist in Canada can remain ignorant of the economic realities of their fallacies the Conservative Right is going to have to get ready for some discomfort for the next 3 years. Because chances are Trudeau will win and this coming economic crash, that will happen under Trump’s second term in office is going to hit Canada even harder.
When our crash finally hits, it’s this period where Canadians are going to have to make their decision if whether they’re ready for real change, it’s also during this period where I anticipate that Albertan Secession may start to grow and it’s during this period where I anticipate the Canadian dollar will reach its lowest point in history. I don’t give financial advice, but be warned reader, without private sector high paying jobs government, has to print money to pay itself. The Government, Government jobs are reliant on the private sector, Government jobs, unlike private sector jobs, are almost always guaranteed, their paychecks are guaranteed, their benefits are guaranteed their job security is usually guaranteed, adding to this many government employees are also unionized. So, the moment Alberta stops being productive Canada is in trouble!
Interesting times ahead
