@jkenney “one of our era's greatest leaders”
Were you actually high on something when you wrote that ??
If your intent is to become the one of most disliked persons among Albertans you’re well on the way there.
A 100 year partnership agreement.
Get angry, Canada. This central banking parasite doesn't even have a democratic mandate from the Canadian electorate. He assembled his majority government through backroom deals. He should not be making moves like this. More importantly, we should not be tolerating it.
The biggest money laundering scam in the world. Nice job you liberal Elbows Up MORONS. This con artist and thief Zelenskyy doesn’t even know where all the money is that has already been sent to him. Canada is falling off a cliff financially and Carney just increases the downward spiral every time he talks. Absolutely infuriating.
Everyone needs to watch today’s testimonies from the Allison Inquiry.
They received over 1400 applications from across Canada to speak about the injury caused by the vax.
Doctors and MP’s in Canada are forbidden to talk about injuries caused by this product. Think about that. And most people who openly speak about it at this inquiry face financial ruin.
This is reality in Canada. It’s disgusting.
The response to The Alberta Transition Plan has been humbling. Albertans have read it, shared it and debated it, which is exactly what it was written for.
Later this month, we will release the next piece: a costed fiscal plan for an independent Alberta.

🚨BREAKING: The Alberta Transition Council is moving to the next phase.
Following the launch of its draft transition plan, a fully costed fiscal plan is now in development, putting hard numbers behind the economic opportunity of an independent Alberta.
Canadians have suffered enough through this trade war. Businesses need certainty, families are already paying more, and piling tariffs on top of tariffs only adds to the damage.
Yes, Canada has to defend its interests. But the end goal has to be a deal with our largest trading partner, not an endless trade war.
Enough speeches. Enough tariffs. Get the deal done.
The claim that Albertans could vote one day and wake up the next morning without jobs, trade, pensions or functioning banks is fear—not serious analysis.
October 19 is not Independence Day.
Option 2 begins a process specifically designed to resolve those issues before independence is implemented.
And Alberta has leverage Ottawa cannot wish away: $90 billion a year in purchases from the rest of Canada, nearly $40 billion from Ontario alone, and energy supplies that B.C. and Central Canada rely upon.
Neither side wants economic disruption. Both sides have powerful reasons to maintain trade and continuity and to plan ahead.
That is why we wrote a 214-page Transition Plan.
Fear is not a substitute for planning. Alberta can do better. Vote Option 2 on Oct 19. https://t.co/sCqzNWkVgz
One of the most remarkable things about Canada is how easily political theatre works on Eastern Canadian voters.
Mark Carney can walk away from a trade deal, turn confrontation with our largest trading partner into a political strategy, and much of Eastern Canada will applaud it as courageous leadership.
Albertans look at the same thing and ask why anyone would willingly sacrifice jobs, investment and prosperity for a polling boost.
That isn’t merely left versus right.
It increasingly feels like two different peoples with fundamentally different economic interests, political instincts and definitions of common sense sharing one federal government.
The incompatibility is becoming impossible to ignore.
The Alberta Transition Plan is now complete and available on the Alberta Transition Council website.
Its purpose is not to argue every political question about independence, design Alberta’s permanent constitution, or pretend that every future negotiation can be predicted in advance.
It answers a more practical question:
If Albertans ultimately decide to become an independent country, how do we get from here to there in a lawful, orderly and workable way?
The Plan maps that pathway in detail—laws, courts, banking, pensions, taxation, trade, borders, transportation, policing, health care, First Nations and treaty relations, international agreements, government administration and the other functions that have to continue through a transition.
One of its most important findings is that Alberta would not be starting from scratch. The institutions, people, infrastructure, businesses and public services that Albertans rely upon already exist. The task is largely to preserve what works, transfer or replace federal responsibilities where necessary, negotiate the relationships that cross borders, and build the limited sovereign functions Alberta does not presently need as a province.
In other words, the primary change is to the constitutional order and the governmental relationship between Alberta and Canada—not to ordinary life.
The objective is deliberately unremarkable:
Government continues. Courts remain open. Pensions and benefits are paid. Banks operate. Businesses continue. Goods and people move. Essential services remain available.
Ordinary life continues—but Alberta becomes responsible for its own future, under a government elected by Albertans and possessing the full constitutional authority of an independent country over its laws, finances, institutions and national decisions.
Fair warning: it is a detailed, technical and occasionally boring read. That is probably a good thing. It is a transition plan, not a mystery novel.
But for anyone who has seriously wondered “How would this actually work?”—the Plan is intended to provide the answer.
You can now read the full Alberta Transition Plan at the ATC website. https://t.co/sCqzNWkVgz
Nine Thoughts this Alberta Day:
1. Alberta was not summoned into being by a committee in Ottawa. It was dragged out of forest, muskeg, rocky soil, foothill and mountain by people who buried children in frozen ground and went back to work the next morning. That is the founding fact. Everything else is paperwork.
2. In 1905 Canada made Alberta a province. It did not make Albertans. The people who broke this land did not cross an ocean, a border, or a winter to become a western department of Ontario. They came to own something, raise families on it, and leave it better than they found it. That was the vision. It still is.
3. Penniless, starving and destitute Germans, Scandinavians, and Slavs came and built Alberta. British and French settlers, along American ranchers also carried the frontier north and west. They did not come to be managed. They came to stay. Fences, churches, ⛪️ le schools, grain elevators and graveyards are not decorations. They are proof of a people who meant it.
4. Ontario’s political culture was built in counting houses, legislatures and universities. Alberta’s was built in yards where the wind never stops and a bad year can take the farm. One culture administers. The other endures. That is not a branding difference. It is a civilizational one.
5. The pioneer bet was simple and serious: suffer now, and your descendants will belong here. They put their bodies into that bet. A country that treats their sacrifice as a quaint preface to a new demographic experiment is not honouring them. It is spending their inheritance.
6. Confederation taught Alberta a recurring lesson. When the land produces, the centre discovers a national purpose for the proceeds. When the land suffers, the centre discovers a lecture. The National Energy Program was only the clearest example. The habit is older than that, and it has not retired.
7. This is why “Canadian identity” never quite took here the way it did along the St. Lawrence. Ontario can mistake the federal state for a homeland because the state was built around it. Alberta’s homeland is the ground underfoot. Ottawa is a distant government. It is not the ancestor.
8. So the live question on Alberta Day is not whether we remember the pioneers with a plaque. It is whether their descendants still have the right to remain a people on the land they paid for in frost, debt, labour and graves. If that right is negotiable, then the founding vision was a lie told to the dead.
9. It was not a lie. We have the land they broke. We have the energy under it. We have the food that comes off it. We have the dead in the soil and the children who will stand on it next.
Canada can keep the story of how it drew the map.
Alberta is the people who stayed.
Happy Alberta Day.
