  1. Quebec is a Freeloader…it receives $12 billion of the $19 billion EQUALIZATION Payments. Am with Albertans CUT the pacifier from Quebec

    1. No Chatter That’s why I go to Quebec. They’re winners who enjoy life with money they steal from the chumps in the West. See ya later, suckers!!!!!

  2. Of course it was cordial. Two Quebecer’s conspiracy to give Quebec whatever it wants. It’s outrageous that a province only Separatist party is in the federal government. Never mind they have far more seats than Saskatchewan and almost as many as Alberta’s federal party seats.

    1. @RJ AB Because you said: It’s outrageous that a province only Separatist party is in the federal government (the Bloc). Now, you are saying the Wexit is the only answer after I wrote you that I was guessing that you were against the coming new Wexit federal party??? You contradict yourself poor fool! To conclude: I asked you if you were against a new wexit federal party and you said Absolutely not!!!! but you are scandalized because the Bloc is a separatist federal party! You got to consult a psycho right away!

    2. @RJ AB If you knew a little bit of history concerning independance in Qc you would not have made that comment : outrageous that a province only separatist party…bla, bla… So, for your education, the separatiste party of Qc (PQ = party quebecois) was identical 40 years ago to the newly separatist Wexit movement in Alberta that now have a political party. They were no political federal party 20 years ago that were for independance of Qc in Ottawa….So, the Wexit started like the Party Quebecois…and will end like the Bloc, a federal separatiste federal party….

    3. @33 ph You want to know why Alberta is pissed at Quebec??? With a population of just over 4million Alberta contributed 50 billion in taxes to Ottawa. 28 billion was transferred back. Quebec at roughly twice the population contributed only 60 billion. Then got transferred back 73 billion. You got 73. We got 28. Guess where the money came from. THE VERY WORKERS YOU WANT TO PUT OUT OF A JOB.

  3. I wonder how much the Rockefellers paid to buy this clown? As he imports “Blood Oil” from Saudi Arabia…

    1. Clown yes! but oil from Saudi Arabia is rather low….check out datas first before writing anything! Don’t understand why so many Canadians are always talking about Saudi Oil while it is about 10% of canadian import now….sure a bloody 2% increase from 2017. datas.

  4. No wonder why premier Moe came out of the meeting disappointed. Trudeau has an agreement with Blanchet for support. There is your majority government. RIP Canada.

    1. @Jon Candy true… I’m franco albertan myself and we know our ancestors came for the fur to alberta. French were the first in every province

  5. One of first priorities on Quebec’s list will be the nationwide handgun ban. I can only imagine what this alliance will lead to.

    1. I can’t believe the gull of these intitled french c@@@suckers….. take western handouts for years and then they finger the West when we need help… I am so done with this screwed up criminal government…. Canada is dead West of Manitoba…..

    2. @Mike Gallant I still wonder how the heck Trudeau and the Liberals got re-elected as the government. What have the Liberals accomplished in the last 4 years? They lied about how much they would spend, carbon taxes, really lousy negotiators, international faux pas, Trudeau family vacation in India with costumes, Canada’s lumber industry in a mess, 80 trillion $ of oil in Alberta and we can’t build pipelines, massive unemployment in Alberta, SNC Lavalin, the list goes on. Even legalized pot was stupidly done as consumers are returning to their old suppliers.

    3. @don684 It’s cuz Ontario and Quebec have the bulk of Canada’s population, which swing mostly Liberals. Trudeau promised electoral reform when elected in 2015, but reneged after.

  6. West cannot expect help from Quebec if they continue on as oil state? Ok there, return the equalization payments then.

    1. The fed woudn’t return income tax ether to Quebec ether. YOU (the fed and the other province) impose a constitution to Quebec, You said no to Meech, YOU cheat in the 95 referendum with the love-in and after with the sponsorship scandal, and it was Transcanada that was lying and making obstruction .

      Quebec try to take a fair share of a deal that he cannot control, the global share of what Qc receive, compare to what Qc gives to the rest of the country (how much does «la voie maritime du Saint-Laurent» worth? ) is fair.

      What is not fair is the inefficiency of the federal govt. so he screew you cause her burns money.
      What we remember in Quebec is that the anglo burn the parlement in 1848, the october crisis in 70. All the other provinces block reform, you are satisfy with the federal govt as a whole, but the west is not satisfy about the way this gov. act, while the point of Quebec is the structure itself.

      We simply play by the rules we didnt’ create.

      Kenney was in the governement that changes the equalization formula.

      In Quebec, we would jump in a new deal with Canada with a smaller federal govt , and smaller GST and income tax than we would raises ours, and Canada would be free to do whatever it wants. But you cannot complain about one piece of the fiscal system.

      Fix it as a whole.
      Alberta doesn’t even have a provincial tax.

    1. I live in Québec and I voted for Andrew Scheer and I feel so sorry for the Albertans and I am extremely mad at what is going on…we are slowly drifting towards a civil war!

  7. They both drove to the meeting in cars powered by Saudi oil and gas and made plans on shutting down Western Canadian oil and gas.

    1. Jon Jones After some of it was shipped from western Canada via the
      keystone pipeline, refined and sold back to Canada at a healthy profit.

    2. @Jon Jones So you don’t deny that they are plotting to kill Alberta energy. The words came right out of Frenchy’s frog lips.

    1. You forgot to mention the Atlantic provinces (albeit New Foundland), the northern territories, Yukon, and Manitoba. All them would sink also (moochers also)!!! Check your datas on perequation and all federal support per habitant….you will have a real view of the federal support and the amount per citizen! Not just perequation. Still, things need to be change. By exemple, if Manitoba (1.4 million habitants) was 7 times more populated, it would have received as much or more than Quebec just for the perequation.

    2. @L F You should know that!!! If you don’t, well why don’t you make your own research as to how does work the perequation!!!! You will find your answer!

  8. I guess he found his lacky to support his Bills. Dealing with separatists, just like his two-faced father. WEXIT NOW. Why wait. Canada’s done.

  9. Quebec is a parasite. They scold Alberta with one hand and take their money with other. Canada would be better off without them.

    1. Guess Alberta would be better off without BC, Ontario, Quebec, Atlantic provinces, New Foundland, northern territories, Yukon…..

  10. Blanchet has the brains of a Seedless Grape… a true steaming 3 coiler… such a failure and embarrassment
