Whether or not Europe stands with us, whether or not your journalists do their jobs, whether or not your politicians demonstrate the courage to act, I will fight for my people and my country.
Huge news for the independence movement.
Rebel News just launched Act For Alberta, a campaign group that will be running TV ads, billboards, digital ads, and public events to help bring the case for an independent Alberta to more people than ever.
This is going to be big.
I was in Rocky Mountain House recently for a massive pro Alberta independence rally. Hundreds of people were waving Alberta flags and driving around town, and I found a small group of about seven pro-Canada counter protesters and decided to engage them.
One man challenged me. He said that if Alberta independence loses, I should give up. I told him plainly that yes, if we lose, I will respect the will of the voters.
Then I asked him the same question back. If Alberta wins, will you accept it? He reluctantly said yes, but the moment I pressed him on what percentage he would accept, he would not even engage with the argument. He would not clearly accept a majority. That tells you a lot.
For too many on the pro-Canada side, this is not really about democracy. It is about imposing their will on Albertans who disagree with them, then using shame and fear to pressure us into silence.
The second part of his argument was that the independence movement is hurting investment in Alberta. My answer was that Ottawa already did that and we have nothing to loose.
For years, federal policy has blocked pipelines, restricted market access, and damaged confidence in Alberta’s future. Then, when Albertans finally start pushing back, we are told that we are the problem.
He even claimed there is no tanker ban. That is factually false. Canada’s Oil Tanker Moratorium Act does restrict large crude oil and persistent-oil tankers from stopping, loading, or unloading at ports on BC’s north coast. The details matter, but the broader point stands: Ottawa has put real barriers in the way of Alberta getting its resources to market.
His response was basically, if that is true, then why is Alberta still so rich and prosperous? My answer was simple: because we work hard, we have a lot going for us, and it takes a lot to sink us.
But that does not prove Canada is working. It proves Alberta is strong enough to keep carrying a country that keeps dragging us down. Canada feels more and more like a sinking ship, and Alberta is the last thing holding it up.
That is why I support independence.

@nenshi You’re wrong. You fight for a false reality. Just stop. You do look foolish. I feel sorry for you and I pray that your eyes open up and your brain makes the synopsis it needs to understand where you live.
🚨 HISTORIC MOMENT: Glenn Beck reacts to Alberta’s October 19 vote to leave Canada and become an independent nation.
@glennbeck's message: do it while Trump is in office.
In a matter of months the map of North America could be redrawn.
