Alberta Soap Box 🇨🇦

Socialism in Venezuela is causing death, destruction, suffering and chaos. No food, no order, no hope! Facing no hope for the future, the People of Venezuela will now accept or be forced to accept their new dictator! Unfortunately whats happening in Venezuela is shaping up in Canada and  America! High taxes, high energy prices, class warfare, MSM propaganda to cause chaos. We are on the brink of loosing many of our our freedoms as the population sleeps.

David Rockefeller Quote:

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years……It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The super national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination (self determination) practiced in past centuries.”

China plans to rank all its citizens based on their “social credit” by 2020.

The problem I have with Rockefeller and his UN world Government isn’t that he’s necessarily totally wrong, it’s that he’s building a new elitist socialist (communist) based world government on deceit, deception and manufactured media lies that is destabilizing our country making it ripe for taking over . This is a recipe for disaster for us little people. We will have no meaningful input into who’s going to rule us. Very scary.

As Canadians we have been sidetracked from the real issue like the never ending health care debate ,gay rights, adoration, pipelines, gender issues, political correctness , fake racism while Trudeau is steaming ahead with Rockefeller’s ‘plan’ to denationalize Canada and join the new world government. As Trudeau said himself just after he won the election “CANADA IS THE FIRST POST NATIONAL COUNTRY”.

So what is the plan in a nutshell? As Rockefeller put it , an authoritative elite (communism) would be the preferred rulers. These rulers with unlimited power would make sure all citizens are equal. Those with affluence would be taxed to the point they would have vey little money left over to invest and become wealthy. Inequality would no longer be tolerated . Like Germany today we would become more reliant on the government. The bottom line, the only people to benefit from capitalism are the ones that govern. The rest of us would have no chance to reach for the stars because we are being taxed and bullied into submission by our rulers.

George Bush Sr. in 1990 mention’s New world order

Stifling peoples dreams and self determination isn’t the way to the future. It’s taken centuries to shake off the shackles of our oppressors. The great Pharaoh’s, the Roman Empire the monarchy’s, Hitler all faded away but the people all marched forward for their freedom. Today the Rockefeller plan is just another grab for power that Im hopeful will be recognized before it sweeps us backwards into the hands of our oppressors.

Before you cast your vote in the upcoming Canadian election ,you may want to know what side you are voting for. The Rockefeller Plan or self determination . These are the only two issues that really count today. All other issues are just political fluff.

It’s been over a year since Notley and the NDP have taken the reins of Alberta power. In this short period of time the NDP has scared investment out of the oil sands, approved a new business killer carbon tax, cancelled cheap electricity by phasing out coal-fired power plants eliminating hundreds jobs and managed to take Alberta to the highest unemployment in decades. Over the past year, 104,000 full-time jobs were lost in Alberta with Calgary leading the pack with the worst unemployment rate of 33 municipalities. Very scary indeed.  Obama said it all when he stated ‘we have enough’,meaning it’s time for nations of less to take over the lead. The provincial NDP and the federal Liberals seem to be following his lead by devaluing our way of life by slowing our growth, high taxes and running up debt. I would have thought by now the leaders of the conservative minded opposition parties would be out in force organizing mass protest to stop this Liberal/NDP madness. But there not.

With the UN Agenda 21 moving along at full speed and its federal counterpart UN agenda 2030 that just got underway in 2015 (with hardly any media coverage), Canada and the world is in the final innings to having an organization similar to the EU legal structure that was  formed December 2009 by the Lisbon Treaty with its base in Brussels. The EU community has extended powers ( The 3 Pillars) over its members (community affairs, security,police etc.) that I would expect the UN would have over us.

I’m sure we are all aware, the EU is in shambles. For all the hype building up the EU in 1993, this experiment in just 23 years has been a dismal failure with extremist immigration and bankrupt countries topping the list. This failed experiment I don’t want to see coming to Canada,  but with the liberal and NDP governments we have governing Canada it appears we are on a fast track to join the party , following the EU example.

I can’t remember how many time I’ve heard people ask why environmentalist are singling out Alberta oil sands and pipelines and leaving other country’s unscathed. We only have to look at the UN 2030 agreement 7.2 for the reason.

The UN Goal 7 ensures access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.  A  commendable goal. However, 7.2 of this goal increases the share of renewable energy into the global mix mostly at the expense of fossil fuels. It’s now become obvious the share of renewables is at the expense of the Alberta oil sands. Alberta’s the looser.

What galls me is this was being discussed several years before it was agreed to in 2015. At the very least the PC government could have done was give Albertans heads up that the oil sands and coastal pipelines were in conflict with the UN agenda on energy. Useful information when you’re planing your careers.

UN Goal 7  

7.1 By 2030, ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services
7.2 By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix
7.3 By 2030, double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency
7.a By 2030, enhance international cooperation to facilitate access to clean energy research and technology, including renewable energy, energy efficiency and advanced and cleaner fossil-fuel technology, and promote investment in energy infrastructure and clean energy technology
7.b By 2030, expand infrastructure and upgrade technology for supplying modern and sustainable energy services for all in developing countries, in particular least developed countries, small island developing States, and land-locked developing countries, in accordance with their respective programmes of support.

So, where are our champions? Why aren’t our Alberta politicians bringing this discussion to Albertans? Most likely many are to afraid of being called right-wing conspiracy theorists to explain how the UN policies will affect our living standards in the future. With few Alberta’s having heard of the UN Agenda’s it’s very hard to have a dialogue. This lack of public education falls on the head of the Alberta PC party who held power in Alberta for 40 years. They did nothing to educate the public. So here we stand, shocked, that Alberta is landlocked, not able to ship our oil over seas.

Today we have the Alberta politicians talking about uniting the right, unemployment, taxes etc. The usual stuff. I want more. I want our politicians to tell us what the plan is for Alberta to fit in to our new worldly environment. Albertans need this information to plan their futures.

Why do the Conservatives keep campaigning on lower tax when 1/2 of the Canadian wage earners pay little or no tax and the other 1/2 that pay taxes don’t mind paying more for a cleaner environment, better health care and education, and to support people in need? Its small wonder why the conservatives can barely muster 30% of the Canadian vote. Canadians are looking for more than just lining their pocket-book with tax breaks, something the conservatives haven’t seemed to notice. They are being snookered by the collective Left (NDP and Liberals) who have clearly aligned themselves with a world movement to cleanup the environment and stop world poverty, a powerful message Canadians are willing to hear. So, when parliament reconvened last week, I found it disappointing that Conservative Leader Rona Ambrose went down the same old tired path telling Canadians conservatives will stand up for taxpayers and support lower taxes. This tax rhetoric alone isn’t going to move the Conservative ball to the goal line in 2019. 70% of Canadian voters aren’t buying the CPC  tax line. They want more from their govenment.

Food donation tax incentive 
Instead of just shouting out tax breaks why don’t the conservatives get behind and support the food tax incentive to support the National Zero Waste Council’s food waste reduction proposal by urging the federal government to implement tax incentives for food producers and suppliers to donate unsold edible food. The proposal intends to reduce unnecessary food waste, decrease disposal costs to municipalities, reduce the environmental impact of food waste and alleviate hunger and poverty. This is an issue the conservatives could get out in front of to help align themselves with Canadian thinking before the Liberals bring in a mandatory law like the French, obliging supermarkets to hand over unused food to charity and not destroy leftover products. The French mandatory approach will probably lead to retailers bringing in less food products causing food shortages.  Controlling food waste is in the UN Agenda 2030, the liberal bible. I have no doubt the Liberals will introduce the issue since it is backed by many municipalities like Calgary , Toronto and Vancouver. Conservatives could be the first to devise a plan good for all parties and maybe win some brownie points with the voters.

Canadian Farmers

Alberta farmers were caught up in a fight with the NDP bill 6, the ‘Enhanced Protection for Farm and Ranch Workers Act’.  Bill 6 will force 43,000 Alberta farms and ranches to abide by basic occupational health and safety standards and secure Workers’ Compensation Board coverage for ALL  farm workers, even though farmers already had their own insurance covers that covered workers 24 hours a day. The problem arose when this bill was just sprung on farmers and was being rammed down their throat without any consultation to be implemented January 1, 2016. If it hadn’t been for the farmers getting out to protest this bill it would have been passed as is. Due to their diligence there were a few amendments made to exempt their families.

Alberta farmers need on going help to protect their family farms from big government bullies like the NDP and Liberals.  I think the fight to regulate family farms across Canada is just starting, particularly with ranchers and a CO2 tax on beef. This is another area the Conservative governments could be cultivating to show reducing taxes isn’t their only song.

Maybe the Conservatives can come up with a plan to reform the welfare system and create a ‘Guaranteed Minimum Income’. This was something economist Milton Friedman fancied. What ever the federal Conservatives do to present themselves to Canadians, I hope they mold their party to attract all Canadian concerns. Presently if you ask a Canadian what a Conservative is, they think big business and tax breaks. Though there is nothing wrong with tax breaks and balancing budgets, Conservatives really have to break out of this mold if they hope to attract the newer generations.

2012 World Bank report – “About US$ 5 trillion in global infrastructure investment is required per year to 2030 in various sectors; this investment must be greened to secure future growth.  A 2012  report highlighted that the planet is on track for a global average temperature rise of at least 4°C beyond pre-industrial levels, which would bring impacts detrimental to growth, including unprecedented heat waves, severe droughts and major floods”

Statistics Canada, Survey of Capital and Repair Expenditures. Core Public Infrastructure (Water, wastewater, recreation, culture, transit, roads etc.

Today municipalities own over 60% of the country’s infrastructure but collect just eight cents of every tax dollar paid in Canada, with the other 92 cents going to federal, provincial and territorial governments. Trudeau’s is going to have to get serious about finding the billions needed for our infrastructure shortfall, and pass It down the pipe to the municipalities. Mayors in Alberta, especially Edmonton and Calgary are counting on it. In a medium-growth scenario, the Canadian population would grow from 35.2 million people in 2013 to 51.0 million people by 2063. Alberta’s population is estimated to go from 4 million to 7.3 million by 2040 (25 years) with 75% residing in Edmonton and Calgary.  This is why the 2 mayors in Alberta and other Canadian city mayors need money to cover the whopping billion dollar infrastructure deficit.

Can we Raise The Cash?

Intergovernmental Transfer Payments, % of GDP, 1961- 2011. Conservative Government started increase in 2005 after a long decline starting end of Mulroney term and all through the Chretien and Martins years.

Hardly. Where are the 3 levels of government going to come up with $350-$500 billion? The federal infrastructure plan that was already in place under the previous government is a 10 year infrastructure plan that totals a measly $53 billion:

• over $32 billion specifically available for municipalities through the renewed Gas Tax Fund and the incremental Goods and Services Tax Rebate for municipalities;
• a $14-billion New Building Canada Fund, which will have $10 billion for provinces and territories, with $1 billion of that reserved for local projects in small communities of less than 100,000 people, and $4 billion for nationally-significant projects; and
• $1.25 billion in new funding available through the P3 Canada Fund.
• Existing programs will continue to provide another $6 Billion

Trudeau 2015 Campaign Plan promise is for meager $10 billion per year for the next 3 years paid for by running a deficit for a total infrastructure package of $125 billion over the next decade. This barely makes a dent.

Canada obviously needs a partner. Wage earners are already overburdened paying the 3 levels of government over 44% of their hard earned wages to tax. With prices rising on energy, food etc. there is simply no money left to give in taxes. Just taxing the rich more isn’t going to solve this infrastructure debacle. We need private investors.

One such private investor is Canada’s life and health insurance companies. They have over $5oo billion in long term assets that can be invested in Canadian infrastructure. Our government has to start talking to them on financing (public, private partnerships or P3s) smaller projects in cities where the infrastructure is need the most. We really have to get out of the box thinking that Government is better than private investors. We need private investment.

Infrastructure isn’t the only Canadian debacle we have. Health care and education has also run amuck. Until we come to the realization that private funding is necessary our way of life is just going to deteriorate. We simply can’t fund everything by taxing.
