"I Have A Lot of Friends Named Albert!" ... Or Something

Not one of us.

Not anymore: 

Mark Carney misidentified the first Alberta prime minister in a videotaped tribute to “great Albertans,” records show. Carney’s office could not name the first Alberta prime minister when asked: “I think when I come to Parliament of the great Albertans.”

 

Also - that sounds like blackmail to me

Prime Minister Mark Carney warned that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s referendum question on potential separatism is a “very dangerous bluff” and argued that it is “not helpful” to ask such questions.

Speaking to reporters from a residential construction site in Ottawa, Carney had a stark warning for Albertans ahead of Smith’s referendum question on provincial sovereignty in the fall: be wary of what you’re voting for.

“It is often advanced that ‘vote for this, and it’s a free option’, ‘vote for this, and we will strengthen your hand in future negotiation.’ That is a very dangerous bluff,” Carney said.

 

What is dangerous is keeping oil in the ground when we could be sweeping up.

But, you know, Brookfield.
