    What do you base this ‘strong economy’ bit on? As far as I can tell, Carneys taken most of PPs playbook out from under him.

    What policies did PP propose that would’ve given us a “healthy economy”?

      He’s announced PP’s policies but he never delivered on them. He’s pretty good at announcing things people want to hear but he doesn’t actually do any of it

        PP entire career is just being contrarian to whatever liberal candidate he’s running against. Dudes never delivered anything in his life besides liberal party wins, lol. Stay delusional.

          That’s complete nonsense. And let’s face it, because ideas are so bad why is mark carney running on them? 😆

          Meanwhile under carney virtually every single metric is down and Canada’s economy is on the same negative ballistic course as it was under Justin Trudeau

            Are you aware of how bad Trudeau was for Alberta? He did a lot of damage and Carney is nowhere close to that bad

              I’ll give you that, although he’s not much better. He’s talking about the possibility of building a pipeline, Justin built a pipeline. And his price for doing that is a massive increase in carbon taxes for the oil fields which will make them far less competitive globally. So I don’t know about the whole nowhere close business. He may not be as bad but I don’t know that he’s that far off

                Trudeau did build an oil pipeline, but natural gas and oil sands projects were cancelled to focus on greener alternatives. Those would have been big for Alberta’s economy.

                  Oh absolutely true, don’t get me wrong I wasn’t suggesting for real was in any way shape or form good for the Alberta economy or province. I was just pointing out that as bad as he was currently isn’t substantially better
