: I believe recent letters attacking Alberta and Jason Kenney fail to recognize that, going into the current crisis, the playing field had been stacked against the province, and Confederation was not an equal benefit across Canada. There is Bill-69, the West Coast tanker ban, the quashing of so many pipeline and resource projects, and the failure to act decisively on blockades and court challenges.
If all was so fair, why did billions in investments flee Alberta? Why is there no tanker ban on foreign crude to eastern Canada? Why no stringent review and blockade of projects like Quebec’s cement industry? We may be years digging out of the current mess. We should wake up and start working together on equal terms. I believe we currently live in a broken nation, and not one I want for our children.
