Star Dust posted topic Alberta NDP Wages War On BC NDP

lpoutine,

Star Dust has just posted a new topic entitled "Alberta NDP Wages War On BC NDP" in forum "Victoria Politics".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
As you may have heard, the Alberta NDP has waged war on the the BC NDP over differences involving the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline and has now launched a FULL and immediate Boycott of importing BC Wines, which generates around 70 million a year for the province of BC.. She has also made other threats regarding importing electricity from BC. The Alberta NDP has also suspended talks to buy B.C. electricity.

B.C. NDP Premier John Horgan said his government has the right to consult with citizens on the impact of diluted bitumen spills on the coastline.

The part I find so unusual about this situation, is that I can't remember a time in my life when two Provinces who are lead by the same political party are actually at war with each other.

Unlike most other parties in Canada, where provincial and federal politics and parties are separated and members of one are not necessarily members of the other, NDP members are automatically members of both the federal and provincial party, and provincial NDP Parties are consider an arm of the Federal NDP party.
