The future of Alberta oil

[Gone_Fishin]

Just a correction to above statement by fluffy. CBC radio news this morning reported that a majority of Canadians blame the federal govt for high inflation.

At last, the light of day is seeping into most skulls.

Yep, government spending emerged as the most often cited cause of inflation in Canada in the latest Nanos poll.

The next most popular is businesses raising prices to offset rising costs due to government policies like the punitive, regressive carbon tax - sane people actually realize that businesses have to cover their increased costs or risk bankruptcy. Insane people (aka leftist Climate change) are too stupid to understand it.

Third most popular is the failure of the BoC to avoid bowing to Trudeau and abandoning fiscal policy in favour of political kowtowing.

Add 'em up, that's 62% of Canadians that are fed up with Justin's idiocy.

The tired excuse used by Justin's boot lickers of "supply chain disruptions" is fading to black.

The courageous elected leader of Alberta, Danielle Smith, recently shared this very positive Economic Observation from the Calgary Herald, August 25th, 2023:

Auto Sales and Crown Land Lease sales on the Rise in Alberta...

“Compared to the rest of the country, it's clear that Alberta is in a better situation at the moment than other big provinces,” said Alberta Central's chief economist

So while Liberal Voters paint their Doom-and-Gloom ending for Alberta, the reality today is quite the opposite. Alberta continues to emerge as the most strategic and powerful province in Canada for decades to come.

There will come a day when Oil is $150/bbl and Canadians will be asking why the country failed to invest in future supplies of Oil & Natural gas rather than uneconomic Wind and Solar projects.

8 years of Liberal Klimate $cience have set us back a few decades of prosperity.

Canada could be one of the most prosperous countries in the world if we stopped Liberal waste and corruption.


Instead we are a backward land of Real Estate speculation and banking oligopolies.

Everyone has their hands out, waiting for the next grocery coupons and CERB.

Borrow Billions Today, let your children's children suffer the debt burden.

That's Trudeau's Liberal Canada.

... The real question is: Do Canadians mind paying $3/L for $2 fuel?

That's what the Liberal $cience will force you to pay with layers upon layers of Carbon Tax.

At least with increased production of Oil and Natural Gas, Albertans will see resource royalties pay for what will be the Best Healthcare in the Country, Best education system in the Country and the Standard of Living for citizens will be better than rest of Country.

This is what happens when you don't Tax people to fund Failing Liberal $cience Projects.

Alberta's 'war room' is back with massive ad spend revealed in annual report

EDMONTON - New documents outline a massive increase in public funding for the Canadian Energy Centre's campaign to change attitudes toward Alberta's oil and gas.

An agency founded by Alberta's United Conservative government to fight what it calls misinformation about the province's industry and otherwise known as the "war room," the centre's most recent annual report shows it signed a $22-million contract last fiscal year for a media campaign. That's about three times its entire government grant from the previous year.

"There's a lot of things the government could do with that money," said Opposition New Democrat energy critic Kathleen Ganley.

Lol, the "War Room"

Why can't Liberal-media call this group of professionals something more accurate?

How about "Ethical Energy Coalition" ?

I'd bump up the Budget to $50mm

How much is the Liberals “ war room “ funding to CBC ? That money could be used for housing to benefit homeless Canadians .

The future of Alberta oil is awesome as the price is creeping higher towards $100 USD/B.

To answer the Q
$1.5B for the cbc, $600M for the rest in direct cash and if the books can ever be audited most likely >double.

Just imagine Canada had NO fossil resources, in my world that means back to living like people did pre oil,
now that will not a problem for the climate ken's & barbies they drive ev's, ride their ev bikes, off the grid on solar with lithium storage capacity, all constructed without the fossil resource and completely built with a taxpayers funded grant, just amazing.

The Alberta "War Room", or the Canadian Energy Centre as it is officially called, is an invention of Jason Kenney's UCP government launched in 2019, a propaganda machine meant to change attitudes towards Alberta's oil & gas sector though multi-million dollar media campaigns. Info on just how the money is spent is scarce, as the Centre has been positioned in the private sector to maintain immunity to Freedom of Information laws.

The Canadian Energy Centre’s mandate is to promote Canada as the supplier of choice for the world’s growing demand for responsibly produced energy. It is an independent provincial corporation that is primarily supported by the Government of Alberta’s industry-funded Technology, Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) fund.

I love Alberta oil

A lot of that goes on eh , particularly with the liberal/taxpayer funded shebeeshe. Why wouldn’t an industry that pays for many , many infrastructure projects ( roads , hospitals , schools ) promote itself ? Thousands of Canadians have good jobs in the energy industry that feed their families , buy homes and contribute to the Canadian economy . Why are liberals so desperate to drag down the economy with fairy tale dreams of windmills and solar panels ( Chinese) to fund a country . No we will just tax and cripple Canadians and the economy .

Well they have to. The idea that burning fossil fuels is a dirty business is getting around. They have to push the idea that jobs and roads are more important than our collective future.
