They are trying to convince the Albertans they are gonna walk away with over half of the pension fund… which will never, ever happen. Ever.
Ever.
Even if it did, it’ll be handed over to O&G before the end of their term anyway.
I tend to think it was a misstep on Smith’s part to make the report they funded so overwhelmingly positive for them. Even those who would be on the winning side of it have to be thinking it’s too good to be true. Polling seems to back that up.
How the heck is this even supposed to work with cross province migration? I migrated from BC having paid the full amount into the CPP for many years and now Alberta gets to pay claim to it? What if I move after they seperate, two meager pensions? What a mess.
It works “fine” for QPP, so I assume it would be the same for APP. Out of all the very valid concerns over this plan, inter-provincial migration isn’t really one of them.
Conservatives have a tendency to destroy shit rather than conserve don’t they? Maybe they should go by a different name. Fucking parasites.
Regressives
I like Ayn Rand’s ‘Second Handers’, I enjoy heaps of irony.
I hate it here
Yes, it’s not like the oil and gas companies are going to give back all that money after Danielle Smith gives it to them. They aren’t even paying to clean up their own messes when they’ve squeezed every possible dollar out of the province and leave.
Nope. It all goes to their overpaid executives. Somebody has to pay for their private jets and multiple residences on Kauai.
Does anyone have the original Trudeau letter? I can’t find it
This was surprisingly bothersome to dig up, but I was able to find it: https://twitter.com/BryanPassifiume/status/1714637930977767619
Thanks! I can’t believe how hard it was to find!
