Albertans have already spoken once.
In 2021, 61.7% voted to remove equalization from the Constitution. The message was clear: Alberta wanted a fairer arrangement. Premier Kenney took that result to Ottawa and to the other premiers.
They ignored it.
No reform. No negotiation. No meaningful response. Nothing changed.
That is the lesson Albertans should carry into the next referendum. Some questions send a message. Others create leverage.
The other October referendum questions may express Alberta’s frustration, but they do not legally require Ottawa to do anything. They can be acknowledged, dismissed, delayed, or forgotten.
An independence referendum is different.
It forces Canada to confront the question it has avoided for too long: whether Alberta will continue paying the bills while others make the decisions.
This should not be about party labels or political personalities. It should be about jobs, homes, housing, services, and whether Albertans have enough say over the future they are being asked to fund.
Get informed. Compare the claims. Then vote.

Do you see the contradiction?

Alberta should study what worked for Quebec.
Quebec did not gain influence in Canada by quietly accepting a system that disadvantaged it. It created leverage. It made Ottawa understand that its place in Confederation could not be taken for granted.
Alberta should learn from that.
Today, Albertans pay heavily into a federal system while Ottawa continues to make decisions that affect our jobs, our resource development, our housing pressures, our services, and our future — often without meaningful Alberta consent.
That is the unfairness at the heart of the Oct referendum.
This is not about anger. It is about whether Alberta has the power to make the decisions that affect Albertans.
Quebec voted for a better deal and became impossible to ignore.
Alberta deserves the same seriousness, the same respect, and the same chance to decide its future.
Canada’s confederation no longer works for Alberta. A vast country governed by population weight will always leave Alberta politically subordinate to Ontario and Quebec. With our energy, agriculture, forestry, technology, and enterprise, Alberta has outgrown this arrangement. It is time for Albertans to take control of our future and redefine our relationship with Canada.
In case you didn't know.
After getting 61.7% support on the 2021 referendum for removing equalization from the constitution, this is what Premier Jason Kenney did.
First, he wrote a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau asking for a meeting about the results.
The response was "No."
Next, he wrote a letter to the First Ministers asking for a meeting about the results.
The response was "No."
Finally, Kenney gave up.
This is the leadership that Kenney offered to Albertans who trusted him.
Now he's asking us to "Lead, not Leave" when the truth is Albertans cannot fix the Canadian system. We have tried. It's time we "Lead, and Leave."
If Alberta stopped sending any money to Ottawa tomorrow... within weeks you'd find out just how much of the so-called federal services we finance.
Ottawa is broke.
The start-up costs of an independent Alberta are nowhere near $400 billion.
Do we need embassies in every country the day after independence?
How are is it to print our own passports? We already have the facilities.
Do we really need Alberta Posts, or can we contract that out to a private organization?
Are border points along the SK, BC and YT urgent? We can quickly staff the ones along the USA border with our own people.
Our courts are sufficient.
We can get someone to physically print some money for us, and back it with the Alberta treasury, or we can just adopt another currency for the short term.
We can net out our share of the debt, with the $300 billion that the CPP Fund owes us.
OAS continues unchanged for anyone already collecting it.
EI takes a month to implement.
It's all fear-mongering. Our ancestors started out with nothing, and built this province. We can do this.
🚨 OMG. SEC. SCOTT BESSENT JUST WENT THERE 🔥
SEN WYDEN (D): We don't want ramblings about the most corrupt regime in history, we want facts
BESSENT: "And we'd like to hear what Adam Wyden and Jeffrey EPSTEIN talked about. Your son's largest investment position was Rick's Cabaret. So, did your son and Jeffrey Epstein talk about pole dancing as he begged him for money using your limited credibility?"
ASSASSIN.
