Essentially, KM (with the help of the Canadian and Alberta governments) are trying to wrest control of what goes on in BC (at least in some ways) away from the BC government. <br /><br />2. BC is supposed to risk the ecological health of our coast for money. This kind of thinking is what leads to the destruction of our environment.<br /><br />3. The fearmongering is totally out of control.<br /><br />4. Threats of economic sanctions is not the way to do business. If we bow to unnecessary economic pressure, we have essentially lost control of our province.<br /><br />5. It seems like the rest of the Canadian confederation has turned against BC. Why should we support Canada if Canada won't support us?<br /><br />6. Not that this matters, but every time I seen Rachael Notley on TV, she cannot keep from grinning. She must think this is a game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-8661467101472230652018-04-12T07:12:27.790-07:002018-04-12T07:12:27.790-07:00Oh .... if KM doesn't get our tax $ from Notle...Oh .... if KM doesn't get our tax $ from Notley or Trudeau as a gift they can use ISDS in NAFTA to sue us.Northern PoVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04670080478290108536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-13243289217964733342018-04-12T07:02:29.114-07:002018-04-12T07:02:29.114-07:00KM has set a trap with this ingenious deadline.
...KM has set a trap with this ingenious deadline. <br /><br />They raised 1.7B for this from CDN investors as they couldn't raise it in the US where the investment bankers know better and KM is seen as a house-of-cards. Then they used the $ to pay down debt. LOL<br />They'd love to dump their boondoggle on the CDN taxpayers via buy-in or even better, a buyout.<br /><br />Irony #1: the same folks who spent the last 30 years selling off profitable public assets now cry for tax $ to socialize the loss. <br /><br />Irony #2: And the same crew that hated the NEP is calling for measures to quash provincial and indigenous rights that far exceeds anything in NEP.<br /><br />Meanwhile, Jr. sends out limp spokespersons while he takes a personal day and then heads for yet another international costume party.
