What i am here is that the ground work for this coalition was raised long before the budget stament was to be release I am hearing that is was just after the election. They never ment for the govenerment to work. What harper put in the budget statement just made them move up the time table.

How about they tell us what they want to do and let the voters decide.

Doesn't matter we pay for it without any transfer payments. Canada doesn't subsidzie us.

It was not the orice of oil didn't start shooting up until 2003. We Balanced our budget and paid off our debt in the nineties BEFORE the boom. No if you look at th electoral map, its Vancouver,, Montreal, and Toronto that don't think the way albertans do. This country would be better off if you took a page out of our books.

We already have enough federal welfare in this country, we don't need more that fact that we had such large surpluses was because we were being over taxed. We have far to large a government infrastructure and programs that are sucking money and doing nothing it was time to cut these. To use an analogy trim the fat. With this one stimulus that that thye coalition wants to pass we erase have of the debt that was paid off we will be back where we were in the late 90's. We had major cuts in our provincial spending to social programs to get the province out of debt. I like to see spending cut, I like to see taxes lowered. I like to see debt paid off. Klien did exactly what you described and I loved it. Albertans loved it. why do you think he was the most successful politician Canada has ever seen?

I would have been happy as hell to get the poltical parties of the public dole. That is what is important not the party but the policy less government less government less government. I am a small c conservative.

Not a hell of a lot, and many of us were biting our tounges. For a breif period we actually had a government that at least listened to us.

Another election is only unwanted by you, ask many other Canadians if they want an election or a coalition and you will get election. Start Poll for or against 57% against colaition. Western Standartd Poll 80% gainst the coalition. Ipsos Reid 6 out of 10 Canadians against this coalition. GLobal media 70% against the coalition. CBC 3 way vote for against and tird option over 60% against last I looked,. So do CANADIANS WANT THIS ACCORDING TO WHAT WE HAVE SEEN THE ANSWER IS NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had I known in 04 I would have been to my right ot vote is the one that I hold most sacred. It is obvious we are the whipping boys for the east, just stay in line and toil in the patch to keep the dollars flowing to the east. I am so sick of this.

"After all, Stephen Harper is the most dangerous animal lurking in the jungles of Parliament, writes Scott Reid. Kill him. Kill him dead. Do not, whatever you do, provide him with an opportunity to extend his hold on power. Because you can be damn certain he will never again be so reckless as to give you a chance to finish him off. ..The other elephant in the room is leadership. Stephane Dion has bargained his way to the drive wheel of the new government. Good for him, but only if it suits the greater good. If Mr. Dion can make his case, then great. If he can't, move to an alternative - and do it fast. Mr. Harper knows that his greatest advantage lies in Mr. Dion's weakness. The coalition can't let that impulse triumph. Don't permit the defeat of Mr. Harper to depend upon Mr. Dion's personal credibility - or that of any single individual, for that matter. There's too much at stake." Scott Reid over the weekend People this was never about economic stimulus it was about a power grab! This is a quiet coup, these people have no regard for democracy.

We lived through the bust before with the NEP heaped on top. YOu have not a clue. We send you pricks more money for your socialist agenda and nothing back not even a thank you. Its lovely to be slave.

Our share of the debt we have long sent more money east then has ever come back. We have paid and paid and paid. Right now the family average in transfer payments alone is $10,000. We have seen non of this come back in over 40 years. We have long since paid our debt to Canada, with thank you. darn near the amount that is sent per year in transferpayments from Alberta is what Quebec has been receiving. Now Duceppe, Layton and Dion are goingto make sure that more is sent. We have long paid our debt to you liberal fascists in the east enough is enough. IF we are to lose our democratioc right as well then kiss your gravy train good bye.

Further corrruption??????? Who hell got caught fulleling money, who held most of the political appointment liberals. Hell Liberals wouldn't even appoint the senators that Alberta wanted to send. Our system became corrupted by successive Liberal governments.

The government has no business building houses

NO that is what the left wants harper gone. So which liberal posted the website?

The job of the gg is to protect the Canadians their freedoms and democracy. Not a peiceof paper.

We are watching it anyway. Alberta is pissed, the radio was abuzz with referendum talk, if this coalition goes through, the western boundary for Canada will change. Instead of you pricks giving us the finger we will be giving it to you. Good luck surviving without transferpayments out of Alberta.

Don't bother these power hungry fascists they don't care, they are here for the pork, nothing more nothing less. They care not for democracy, only their blind ambitions. Look at Jack Layton he would sell out his mother for a seat in Cabinate.

You didn't read the trascript of the NDP meeting did you.

This caolition was started weeks ago, not friday when the update was tabled. So yes we need to go to the polls again becasue the NDP bloc and liberals never once intentend to make this government work. But alas the democratic Canada is now Dead Stelmach the time is now for a referendum. Let these morons rot in the cespool they are creating. Canada has been sold out, the bloc has veto on everything a coalition would table.

I am not a viloent person but I am ready to explode we vote for governments in this country, not back room pork barrelling to decide the government of the day. Look at what these pricks did in to the TSX today darn near 10% gone, and more to go, we won't see one gain this week. The liberals NDP are now standing against democracy. We are entering the terretory of facist states. Move over robert mUgaby you now have some friends layton duceppe, chreitend broadbent and dion.

Get bent. You can go live with the eastern creaps and bums since you are one of them.

What the hell is the point when “blanks” like you can't even respect democracy? You spoke about working with government but this was in the works long before parliament resumed. You blanks sold democracy out just to get your greedy little hands on the public purse long live the most corrupt party if Canadian politics. I will never recognize this coalition government as a Canadian government because it was not democratically elected. You have no respect for democracy.

All that left to say is that it's time for alberta to go exit stag left, leave these socialist pricks to their own devices. If Democracy is not served watch Canada become another Zimbabwe . To bad i couldn't speaking to some of you outside this forum, because I have some very choice words on the state of democracy in this country.

They are as you would be governing based on their demands as the NDP and liberals don't have votes to out vote the conservatives in the house.
