It's just insane to me that Smith and her supporters can look around and say "nope, we gotta defend O&G and the status quo". With ocean and surface temperature records being broken on a daily basis now
The ocean's temperature doesn't affect their income, and probably won't for the rest of their career. These regulations do actually affect their income. I can see how short-sighted people can get upset over it.
Wont someone think of the poor, poor multi-billion dollar O&G companies...
Someone told me how the carbon tax is ruining them, with how expensive it is... and then in the next breath bragged how the infloor heating in the their garage means they use it as a living space, and they keep it at 22 in the winter.

Ms Smith goes to Ottawa and invokes her Sovereignty Act

Ottawa sends in a representative of the Crown - or a few thousand - and lo, Ms Smith and all her seditious co-conspirators are unemployed but well looked-after in a new, secure environment.
It's neat that the entirety of exports from Alberta need to cross a federal boundary to get money put into an account with a Canadian bank. The neat part is that we've already seen both those things stop in the past.
