What’s the deal with toilet paper?
Some weeks there are so many amusing or annoying things going on, that it is just plain hard to decide what to complain about. This seems to be one of those weeks, and rather than just choosing one I thought maybe it was time to do a mixed bag of opinions.
Was anyone else in shock and awe when former Wildrose Party leader Brian Jean publicly stated he was on Premier Jason Kenney’s side when it comes to trying to negotiate a better deal for Alberta in Canada? I was.
Jean went just a little bit further than the Premier. He said Ottawa has got to agree with Alberta’s demands for equality in Canada, or risk separation. In fact, he suggested Alberta leave if PM Trudeau does not agree to the recommendations by the Fair Deal Panel which will be presented in early April.
It’s not like the Fair Deal Panel or Jean are asking for anything unreasonable: each province should be treated fairly; House and Senate should have true representation by population; eliminate the ability of the federal government from passing laws that impact one province without the majority of provincial MPs and Senators from that province also supporting it; and have the constitution state that one single province can not prevent another from having access to tidewater for the purpose of international trade. . . . contd.
