Outrageous comments by anti Canadian, right wing Alberta economist who should be immediately disqualified from sitting on the panel.
Here's Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, in 2018, writing about work on 'Albexit' by Jack Mintz. Smith just appointed Mintz to head a provincial panel detailing the economic case to *remain* in Canada.

Shameful
The Alberta government's solution for the orphan well crisis, led by Danielle Smith? Download the cleanup costs onto the public and through the proposed Mature Asset Strategy. 🤦 #alberta #abnews #abpoli #calgary #edmonton #daniellesmith #UCP

Varcoe: In wake of energy pact with Ottawa, Danielle Smith touts 'single-greatest expansion of pipelines in decades' “It’s remarkable how much expansion we’re seeing ... We’ve moved almost 180 degrees from where we were 18 months ago.” calgaryherald.com/opinion/co… #ableg #cdnpoli #yyc

The only possible route is the southern route for a host of reasons. The sooner Alberta wakes up to this better for them. Otherwise, they will waste two or more years of engagement only to have to start over
Grant Sprague, former Alberta deputy energy minister, on the best pipeline route "And Prince Rupert seems to me... an obvious deep water port that's there we could use, or you go south through Vancouver." "Vancouver's got far more problems, it seems to me, and challenges in terms of getting large ships into the port." " "So the northern route seems attractive from that perspective."

Canada’s Aluminium Is Going to Europe. Brilliant Work, Donald. A 50% tariff on Canadian aluminium, the one country on Earth that was happily selling the stuff at sensible prices, right next door, through an integrated supply chain that took decades to build. And now that aluminium is sailing across the Atlantic to Europe instead. Canadian exports to the EU went from near zero to between 6% and 40% of monthly totals in the space of a year. Just vanished eastward. Extraordinary result. US consumers are now paying $6,200 a ton for aluminium. Europeans are paying $4,300.  American manufacturers taxed nearly two thousand dollars a ton more than their competitors. For beer cans. And car parts. And buildings. Tremendous. Nobody could have seen that coming, except everyone. Meanwhile Europe, which was already scrambling after losing its Middle Eastern supply to the Iran war, now faces a 5.6 million-ton aluminium deficit in 2026. And Canada just filled it. With metal that used to go to America. The head of the Aluminium Association of Canada put it with admirable restraint: the EU option “remains attractive,” adding pressure on the US market. What he meant was: Washington handed Europe a competitive advantage in manufacturing while American industry pays the bill. This is what happens when a trade guru who has spent his career slapping his name on buildings in gold letters decides he understands global commodity flows. No leverage materialises. Just an empty dock in Ohio and a very pleased purchasing manager in Rotterdam. Well done, Donald. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1
