Think what those millions could do in our Alberta. No illegal refugees conning us. No SSC decisions that are against common sense. We would have free speech, no HRCs. Money saved in transfer pymts for welfare programs in the ROC could be used to buy all Federal assets in Alberta. We would do fine going it alone, but I think SASK and parts of BC would join us. Are you aware that there have been attempts for areas of BC to join Alberta.maryThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10099534478709227356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24226508.post-5304287710413632342008-06-21T11:21:00.000-06:002008-06-21T11:21:00.000-06:00I wonder what sort of Nazi paradise the Republic o...I wonder what sort of Nazi paradise the Republic of Alberta would be, given what I see here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24226508.post-43363741204754125792008-06-21T08:35:00.000-06:002008-06-21T08:35:00.000-06:00What's really interesting is that for years the Li...What's really interesting is that for years the Liberals managed to run this country by pitting Quebec against the ROC, and we had the rise of separatism. <BR/><BR/>Now we again have the Liberals trying to split the country between the oil provinces in the west and the Quebec/Ontario "heartland". And guess what happens ?

Just bring a good work ethic along and leave any sense of 'entitlements' back in la la land.<BR/><BR/>Even with uncertainty it's still VERY busy here. The biggest threat to us would be the return of a Liberal to 24 Sussex. Far greater a threat than a slowing U.S. economy or a rising cost of living.<BR/><BR/>My folks were hit hard during the NEP and never did recover from it. Mom is fighting cancer and Dad still works at 72 years old to keep things going for them.<BR/><BR/>Thankfully I've been blessed to be in a very lucrative sector of the economy (engineering/construction) and as they say, I'm making hay while the sun shines. At the same time, I'm minding the store, keeping my debt down and planning long term, but more importantly I'm planning short term for the 'what if' scenario. (read: Liberal invasion of the Alberta 'milk cow' as Dion says). I'm not going to have another Trudeau do to me what happened to my folks.<BR/><BR/>I remember when the town of Nisku was a ghost town. (Nisku is a large industrial park south of Edmonton made up of welding and fabrication shops and oil industry service companies)<BR/><BR/>Just yesterday I spoke with a gentleman whose sister and brother-in-law made the move to Alberta from the 'Rock. The two of them work in Fort McMurray and are able to live off thier 'northern living allowance' and are banking almost thier entire paycheques, to the tune of just shy of $20,000. per month. (Yes, per MONTH). Here's the skinny - they work as labourers. Not skilled, no degrees, just a good work ethic. Oh, and that 20 grand....that's AFTER tax.<BR/><BR/>So load up the Red River cart and we'll wave to you on Highway 63.
