Can we declare Alberta a terrorist state yet? They are restricting the construction of wind and solar farms, adding extra fees to buying electric cars and now they are straight up mining coal against federal law.
- Really is horrific seeing the government pull these shenanigans with little to no repercussions. Our next election can't come fast enough
  
  Who can you elect that will act differently? Every party is the capitalist party.
Coal and Oil doing something shitty?
- Alberta doing something stupid and regressive?
