Scott Moe and Danielle Smith say the exemption should also be applied to natural gas, as the majority of people in their provinces use it to heat their homes.

But they told me natural gas was reducing carbon emissions in the world...

Go fuck yourself Alberta. Leave that shit in the ground.

Both natural gas and heating oil contribute co2 emissions. One just got a carbon tax exemption for some reason. Not sure what your blind hatred for Alberta has to do with inconsistently applied carbon tax rules.

You want me to quit with my blind hatred of Alberta? Then shut up with your fucking ads!

I'm sick of watching them, I'm sick of hearing them. I live in Ontario and don't give a shit about what your province or MAGA-loving Premier has to say.

Canadian who lives in Alberta here. I just want to point out that the majority of Calgarians, Edmontonians, as well as Banff / Canmore voted NDP in the election earlier this year:

We're not all bad. Just enough of us to have a UCP government - AGAIN (after Kenney's shenanigans).

...Mind you, Ontario voted for Ford twice...and based on polling, we're heading for a federal government led by Pierre...

Don't remind me about Ford. 18% of the electorate gave that idiot a majority. Lazy fucks don't vote.

The person you're responding to can't see the difference between the people who live in a province and their political leaders... while living in a province that voted in Doug Ford.
