First of all why is she asking people this? As a leader she should know the issues, and have the answers. Obviously she does not know, and should not be the leader/Premier. So she wants to wait another year to have a survey, and then start working on things? That sounds insane to me. With $60 oil, Danielle states Alberta's debt will skyrocket. Oil is heading to $40 per barrel. That's $50 billion dollars more debt PER YEAR than in 2024. When you add on the costs to finance that , you are looking at maybe $70 Billion deficit per year very soon. That is unstainable for such a small population. Then the separatists want to ad at least a trillion dollar loan, to leave Canada and service that debt. Where is all this massive wealth the separatist spew? Then she wants to wait another year for the people to tell her what to do about it. She is totally insane. Danielle, the worst Premiere in Alberta's history. Another survey, and another year wasted while nothing get's done? Please stop blaming everyone else for Alberta's problems. It is getting tiring. Danielle never says much that is correct. Like her ridiculous CPP rebate cheque. The way she calculated that was totally insane. Today she stated Ai would save Alberta's economy. She may not know it but Ai makes almost no jobs. It also needs massive energy and a good power grid, and Alberta's is ancient. That's why she is just a small time TV show host. Alberta's problems is as always, due to a bad Premiere, and she is the worst of them all. Dec 2025 Employment Insurance Recipients 67,520 UP 21.9% y/y Q3 2025 Net Migration 5,849 Down -86.2% y/y Dec 2025 International Merchandise Exports $15.6B Down -7.4% y/y Where do you see this massive wealth with $40 oil on it's way? Danielle states every 1 dollar the oil goes down equals a Billon dollar deficit. Rath uses $90 per barrel for his insane figures. 2025 prices averaged in high 60's. In the mid 50's now, and almost every oil agency in the world states it will settle around $40. If you add 20 or $30 billion more debt to Alberta's deficit per year, Alberta will die a very fast death. Add on a one trillion dollar loan, and the other costs to pay out Canada. Then add on all the new federal costs Alberta will have to assume. LNG will be over as BC/Canada will never let Alberta use it's plants, ports, and infrastructure to compete with themselves. If Canada does let a a new Alberta use it's existing pipelines, of course they will not subsidize them any more. They will expect to make a profit from them. So let's say they add on $5.00 more per barrel. Using Danielle's math that would add another $5 Billion annually to Alberta's skyrocketing debt every year. Can you explain to me where all this massive wealth that Rath and Wilson preach? Of course there are many other issues like business/jobs leaving. Equalization payments are not really and issue as oil plummets, especially with no LNG Equalization is based on high earnings, as Albertans make more money than everywhere else. If there are no jobs, Alberta may again start to get payments back even. Trump thinks Alberta oil will be good for USA reserves so he can just shut that down for 100 years, so what will that do to Alberta jobs , and deficit. If you ask people how they feel about Rath and Wilson begging for a trillion dollar loan...secured by Alberta's resources... "just to get started" , I wonder what they will say. She thinks Ai will save Alberta LOL AI needs massive cheap energy, and an up to date power grid.. Not strong points for Alberta with an ancient power grid. Ai also produces no jobs. Given the shape of Alberta, thanks to Danielle, I don't think equalization payments will be an issue, going forward. With $40 oil on it's way, Alberta may start getting payments. LNG will be over as BC/Canada will never let Alberta use it's plants, ports, and infrastructure to compete with themselves. If Canada does let a a new Alberta use it's existing pipelines, of course they will not subsidize them any more. They will expect to make a profit from them. So let's say they add on $5.00 more per barrel. Using Danielle's math that would add another $5 Billion annually to Alberta's skyrocketing debt every year.

Thank you for this. As a single mom of 3 kids in their 20’s I am shocked with the seeming hypocrisy in our country right now. Those who have deflect and blame trump for all our problems. We need to stop blaming and start paying attention to what really matters - our own citizens who are suffering.

You know, as a Canadian, I started to watch this video with just a whole lot of blame and spite for Trump, but who knew that my eyes would well with tears thinking about the sad reality that is the present day (i.e. the detrimental impacts this will have for many and the generational relations that have crumbled).

Why is Trudeau making speeches when he resigned.\nThe war in Ukraine must STOP.\nMillions have died from a war that should never started\nEurope and Canada did NOT do enough to stop Putin and now they blame Trump.\nAmerica DOES NOT support Putin. The war must stop.\nTrudeau is full of shit!!!\n?

As a Canadian citizen I have always admired the US up until now, I sincerely wanted to move to the US to build homes and start up a company. But now am re-evaluating my decision because if this how the US treats their friends and allies, I really feel sad for their enemies. Both countries benefited from having a good relationship and now the great US has no one willing to challenge Mr Trump on this idiotic move, America is alienating themselves from a lot of countries and regular Americans are the ones who are going to suffer from this fall-out, the rich won't be affected but regular working class folks your stress is going to get a whole lot worse and that's unfortunate. Hopefully US wises up sooner rather than later and stop blaming immigration for their problems it's poor governing and politicians that have us looking at each other as enemies rather than humans with the same struggle and issues. They have money to send annually overseas but none to improve the life of their citizens in need, that should tell you something. People that don't look like you aren't your enemies, people who try to harm you, undermine you are your enemies. People are just searching for a better life that's all, the most basic thing humans have in common, change the red tape a make things more structured and rid your country of the bad apples and welcome those willing to work, build and serve God and the country. May God help us all the beginning of Sorrows has begun ?.

Trump speak just like a third grader , bullying and disgraceful. But I blame them idiots that voted for him back in the office. They will be suffering the pain that he caused .\nCanada supposed to be our friend, our ally why He started the trade war with ?

Every political leader sees world war 3 happening (or at least if history serves as a template.) Trump will start it. But he will blame everyone for it.

You are exactly right Trump would rather help Russia that says Hamas is not a terrorism Russia China and Iran will invade Israel Trump would rather help Russia when Russia Helps Iran and the Terrorism hamas Trump wants to blame other countries like Ukraine saying that they're starting World War 3 it's not them it's Trump that's going to cost that World War 3

Let's all start fresh NO MORE FOREIGN AID!! Done - Finished - we don't owe anything to any one and I don't need Trudeau speaking to me. He has a failing economy and it has been failing since he came in ~ now he wants to blame Trump! Everything here should be MADE IN AMERICA!!

trumps plans with putin obviously meet his imperial ambitions more than his democratic allies. trump aided russia by holding back the vote on Ukrainian military aid for months on end costing countless innocent lives and attempting to suck dry Ukraines most powerful weapon their morale!\nNow he is in power just as 3 years of sanctions on russia finally are showing results he turns off Ukraines military aid while repeating kremlin talking points.\nThe US who removed Ukraines nuclear deterrent with the Budapest Memorandum promising to protect its borders which they failed to honour even have trump blaming Ukraine for starting the war.

When trump started blaming all the immigrants for the economic woes of the us like it’s 1945 I knew better than to listen to his bs. He lies and says what he needs to to act like a dictator. I didn’t vote for him. Nor will I ever be ok with him being on putins side or bragging about being friends with Kim jun un. He’s an idiot.

All the blame without exception was caused by MORENA AND SO MUCH NACO HELPED, starting with the alliance with the drug trafficker Andres Lopez Obrador, to obtain money from the DRUG TRAFFICKING TO BUY VOTES IN EXCHANGE FOR protection of the armed forces TO THE DRUG TRAFFICKING, using cynical manipulations of hugs and not bullets second speaking badly of the United States in the morning, manipulating the ignorant people letting millions of MIGRANTS pass AND ON THE OTHER HAND COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SELF-DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE, letting millions enter Mexico without moving a single finger, but letting the armed forces collect incredible quotas of money to keep the soldiers happy, they have bankrupted PEMEX, direct robberies to SEGALMEX, the refinery and the Mayan train, unprecedented million-dollar robberies, and now stealing the workers' savings funds in Infonavit, insecurity at its peak in the country and especially states where the fourth misfortune of this country directs, that allied itself with countries that are Communist, Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and China, are bringing us misfortune, urgent help is requested from President Trump

He is working like a true Demonrat. They lie blame for his own doing. Where was your friendship Trudeau when your corrupt friend Biden inflated the Americans people? You didn't want to meet with Mr. Trump (who you say is your friend) to make fair and balanced trade. That seems like a one-sided friendship and we are about COMMON SENSE. Trudeau, you are putting Americans and Canadians through this because you don't want to see that Mr. Trump just wants fairness and for some reason you want tariff wars. That's the truth and you need to start speaking truth and quit misleading people with lies! That's why the democrats have been defeated because they are corrupt and they lie to the people.

I hope you Canadians know that WE, the sane citizens of the United States, do NOT agree with what Trump has started. We don't even want him here!\n\nUnfortunately, there are a lot of racists in our country who have learned to blame other groups of people for the failures of the very party they vote for. \n\nI say, FIGHT BACK! Don't allow the Dictator Orange Man to bully y'all. However, this affects us, we'll have to deal with it, and the ONLY person to blame will be Trump! \n\nLong live, Canada! -Signed, A Black American Woman (who did not vote for that literal clown)

In a few months from now, if these tariffs still exist and we will all be suffering, trump will try and blame canada, saying its our fault the tariffs are in place. Please remember that trump started it, not us!!

I hope everybody starts straight out blaming trump. Not the usa. Just explain that we like the usa, but they chose a stupid old man and now we all have to deal with it

Lets get it started. I support president Trump. America has been taken advantage for so long. Canada has been a back door for China to move illegal products and people into the Us. You are owned by China. Your economy sucks, you cannot afford this trade war against us. Your border is not safe. Your military contribution is the bottom of the list. You keeps blaming us for buying your oil? Now, you can keep it.

Well, I was really interrupted, but my thing is with. Why does the taxpayers have to continue to keep paying out the government's debt? I don't understand these rich billionaires. Don't want to pay their taxes. And then you guys blamed the middle class and the average payers. It's time that the middle class and average payers start going after the government to change your laws or be able to take these people that don't agree with the people that they paid to take care of the United States to get to my office and put someone that does care about the people in. Our country, that's what my whole thing's about right now and Donald Trump don't care. He wants to become a dictator and keep telling you guys and his followers are doing the same. It's time to go after the Republican office that Donald Trump has put together even with Leona's and take all his contracts away from Leon musk and see where he goes now. Instead of charging Leah, unless the area says he uses about 10 times a amount of rental space to do his work. That's what I gotta say, because that's what you guys are doing to the average worker and middle class to pay your guys's b******* bill.\nAnd that's my opinion like it ornet you fucking thieves

Trump's over confidence is going to cost Americans as the prices start to climb and he has no one to blame but himself

I don’t blame Columbia for not allowing those flights to land. He should have had a plan in place before he started having ICE pick ppl up. Trump is an idiot and he has no clue what he’s doing. He’s going to cause a civil war in this country. Ppl need to wise up and shut this shit show down. \n\nTrump assumes he can do whatever he wants to do. This was not a thought out plan. You can’t just expect countries to open their doors to criminals being dropped off after being away for yrs to your doorstep. If they are criminals committed a crime, put their assets in jail in the country where they reside. \n\nHow about all those criminals, 1500 that Trump just let go in the U.S. now he wants to act like he cares and he just did this to police, lawyers, judges and family members of the ppl whom were doing their job, list love ones and fear for their lives. Ppl best wake up and start protesting peacefully b/4 we have a civil war!!!!

What about the immigrants that have been working and contributing and trying to get citizenship for decades and the spouses of American citizens still fighting for their right after paying taxes for many years - are we raiding all families homes and splitting up kids from parents? Did we ever find the families for the 800+ kids that had no details taken still unable to contact families that trump split them from the first time? Or does that not matter cause it’s not YOUR kids? Huh. When they come and create the detention camps and ship people back to places they haven’t been in decades who cares right they have been paying American taxes and have no rights while their years of waiting for their citizenship - fix that maybe so those who are working, contributing can stay and work in the jobs they have and keep families together. But no let’s demonise EVERY single person because most who voted are ignorant just like abortion about the actual application and situations that arise within a MASSIVE spectrum. Just dumb it down to ANY illegal, and does that also include the legal folks that GOP decide aren’t anymore just cause they came from elsewhere on an invitation? Springfield residents I would suggest if you haven’t or can’t left the state already you find points of contact for legal battles. \n\nWelcome to the start of your facist, authoritarian, white nationalist, dictator era AMERICA. What follows was your own doing. To any woman that voted republican - No matter your faith there is no well I always vote republican defence. Women have and will die for lack of healthcare, their deaths are on your hands and every republican. And so we are clear there are ZERO babies ‘executed’ after birth cause anyone changed their mind. The deaths of fetus carried to term are due in almost all cases to massive complications, unviable development or other mitigating issues. Those babies were wanted. They were mourned. \n\nWhere is the magic money for all these deportations coming huh? Reconciliation won’t pay the bills, and once the workers who do the labour that effect service, hospitality, food supply the costs of things will rise. But apparently multiple Wall Street and top economists telling you outright that trumps plans will tank the economy still you don’t believe. Even though Biden landed the best recovery in the world post covid and gop. When musk and the rich are getting another tax break and the costs of food and gas rise who do you blame then? If it wasn’t for all the innocent ppl about to suffer I would wish you welcome to just implode with this vile plan but the dictators like putin are already rubbing their hands together in gleeful joy. People of Ukraine I am sorry. People of Yemen, Syria, Palestinian civilians, Israel hostages, lgbtq+ communities, non white Christian faith followers, blended families, veterans, minorities or anyone fleeing violence, death or persecution - there will be no aid or help by the GOP Trump administration and in fact I fear you will be targeted by hate and ignorance or selfishness and greed. But I hope enough columns of good remain to shield as many as possible from what is in their plans. Folks who voted for gop while being in the targeted communities you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and soon you may experience your choices in vivid regret. \n\nFor those who still have a conscience I share your heartbreak and wish the future 4yrs pass quickly and a flicker of hope that there is still good enough people who will offset the hate, division and evil that’s about to erupt all over the country. ?️

last time Trump was in the office and as a way to thank Jesus, Trump did make it so 1M died by defunding healthcare and say covid was just a myth and later sade it was just a mild flu. Then loved America so great he started tradewars with everyone and crashed the economy. But who cares if one can just hand over the problem on the next president and blame the inflation on Biden that had not even moved in to the white house yet. While why not blame leaving afganistan on him also even though Trump did sign the order. one can think adults stands for what they do, but one can also vote to not fix the border problems as Trump and the Republicans have done. This even when it is their own legislators that writes the proposed fix to the problems.
