I’m all for folks pointing out the potential risks of Alberta separating. That’s a healthy part of the debate.

But this whole “the separation debate is killing investment” argument is complete BS. Every economic indicator says the exact opposite. Every. Single. One.

Muzzling important discussions is foolish. Have a free and open debate and trust Albertans to make the right decision.

[Cory Morgan @CoryBMorgan]

Hey Canada!

We need to talk.

[Keith Wilson @ikwilson]

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.

@SenateCA The whole Bill C-9 needs to be rejected. It is Orwellian in its entirety

[Charlie Hawk Alberta @charliehawkAB]

First of all, the brexit analogy conveniently ignores the fact that the transition was lead by pro-EU "remainer" politicians who made it as painful to the UK citizens as possible, probably out of spite. Do the UK citizens regret controlling their own destiny instead of leaving it in the hands of Brussels? Of course they don't. That's what alberta independence is about, SELF-DETERMINATION. We no longer want ottawa controlling everything we can and can't do, with impunity, while taxing us into oblivion.

@cbcwatcher Never going to happen. Albertans have one choice. I hope quebec achieves independence as well.

[Sheila Gunn Reid @SheilaGunnReid]

I'm the head of a third party advertiser. I'm a fifth gen Alberta farmer, a third gen separatist, and entitled to my opinions. I don't lie about my bias like the CBC does.

Rebel News, a separate entity, is HQ'd in Toronto.

Cute call for censorship. Insufferable crybully.

Albertans have tried Option 1 for the last 50 years and it didn’t work.

On October 19th, it’s time to vote for Option 2!

[Sheila Gunn Reid @SheilaGunnReid]

North Dakota produces roughly CAD$141,679 in economic output per person, compared to approximately CAD$71,708 in Alberta. Personal income is also substantially higher, at roughly CAD$90,662 per person compared to Alberta's approximately CAD$61,200.

That's what we could have without an anti-oil federal government.

[John Tomkinson @johnwtomkinson]

In the late 1980’s the Reform Party of Canada's platform included a Senate "Triple-E" model: that is Elected by the people, Equal in provincial representation, and Effective in exercising legislative powers.

After trying to fix Canada’s broken systems for 50 years without success, it is time for Alberta to move on.

On October 19, vote option 2.

[Honkzilla @Gzilla73]

Yes!!!

[Dennis Kalma @DennisKalma]

@ABDanielleSmith Ok, now add an Alberta Firearms License to that there piece of plastic and opt out of the current RCMP PAL and RPAL licensing system.

@JohnSpence33693 @AlbertanAFk @SheilaGunnReid It is legally codified that there will be a negotiation, not military action

[Charlie Hawk Alberta @charliehawkAB]

@BrianJeanAB Nothing changes unless we achieve independence.

[Honkzilla @Gzilla73]

@JohnSpence33693 @AlbertanAFk @SheilaGunnReid Let me get this straight

- The SCC has determined that a province can secede

- The Clarity Act sets out a process for secession

And you think that if AB applies the law set out by the courts and the HOC that the appropriate response is military action?

Logical fallacies for $200, please, Alex.

“What is a counter factual?”

[Honkzilla @Gzilla73]

@TariqElnaga @vitamindees The NDP disappearing alone ensures one party rule in Canada.

60% of Canadians are leftists. The NDP will not be splitting the vote in the future.

[Michael Thomlinson @miket136]

"Independence would be hard work and expensive".

Of course it will, anything worth doing takes effort, and Albertan's don't shy away from work. As for the cost, two things:

1) We don't need every single thing on day 1.
2) Staying in Canada will be far more expensive in the long term.

Vote for Independence and be a founding citizen at the dawn of a new nation free of the burdens, restrictions, parasitic drains and pernicious authority of Ottawa and our "partners in confederation".

[Dennis Kalma @DennisKalma]

I am native Albertan, 70 years old and have gone from an ardent Canadian nationalist to an independence seeker.

Why?

Because I see no path to revamp the country, clean up its constitution, balance its electoral representation and fix the structural economic transfers embedded in the Charter.

I see no way for the Maritimes, Quebec, Ontario, the West and First Nations to ever come to agreement on the kind of fundamental changes necessary to "fix" Canada.

I see no interest from the rest of Canada to undo the horrid changes made by P. Trudeau that changed the highest power in the land from Parliament to the unelected courts.

So, more in sorrow than in anger, its time to leave.

Feel free to rebut my points as you see fit. To date, there has been nothing but fear-mongering in response, never concrete plans to actually fix Canada.
