Doesn't take much to get to be a prof in Alberta if you espouse the local folklore, apparently. Nothing like going with the petro flow instead of trying to change things for the better, far too much hard work. Above his pay grade. Look at Notley. She turned me off the NDP forever - I'll never forgive her vituperativeness towards BC and the Orwell-speak TV ads of upside down logic as she stamped her tiny impatient feet for TMX. Just another pol wanting to keep their job, no interest in leading people in real social democrat policies. At least with Kenney one knew he was a grasping "Christian" animal of a dud dead-minded right wing politician interested only in himself not about to turn down a backhander from big oil, but Notley tried to eat her petro-cake and come over as a social progressive as well. Glad she's gone; she and JT would make a lovely pair of liars together on a lecture circuit for ecological bureaucrats putting in time for a pension, perhaps even co-author a book. The mind reels at the idiots we vote into power.<br /><br />For that matter, Horgan is happy fracking gas in north-eastern BC and shipping it to an LNG terminal. Leaks, pollution, earthquakes. Who cares? Not the BC NDP. Nor the BC Greens, partners in the crime by propping up the Horgan government. Weaver seems two-faced as well. <br /><br />We're screwed. Nobody important's going to "wake up" and smell the roses, it seems to me, they'd rather debate nothingness like the distribution by deck and port and starboard of lifebelts on the Titanic, making it a game instead of deadly serious. They all want to die instead, providing they have a bacchanalian time before the day of judgement. Stupid, venal, convenient. Human, and as dim as any invasive species. Gorge until you drop, eating your way out of house and home.<br /><br />BMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-56719669244512460522019-09-16T13:25:58.821-07:002019-09-16T13:25:58.821-07:00Anon 12:47 - Good.Anon 12:47 - Good.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-7906598294229235242019-09-16T12:47:44.973-07:002019-09-16T12:47:44.973-07:00At some point, Rumley, we're going to have to ...<br />At some point, Rumley, we're going to have to treat them not as a nuisance but as an active threat.
