I wonder why so many people here are so quick to complain about anything.

It's really just because complaining feels good. It's cathartic. It's kind of addictive. Plus, when you really don't have anything to complain about, complaining anyway is a surefire way to distract from the fact that you're bathed in privilege while other people are going cold and hungry.

I work in the midstream and weโ€™ll be net zero in 2-3 years while our government is spending money like crazy trying to fight any change.

They're not trying to fight anything, except the Liberals. It just looks good to their base, and to Albertans generally, to be a giant pain in Ottawa's side whenever a right-wing troll isn't in the PMO.
