Keith is correct. Donโt be fooled by this pipeline talk. Canada is โnationalizingโ the sector. The government plans, controls, and funds with the peopleโs money. The projects are unlikely to be built in the foreseeable future. They just want to look like theyโre doing something.
The article makes a powerful point: this is not a new Western Accord.
It is a new National Energy Policy wearing a hard hat and high-vis vest.
Alberta produces the wealth. Ottawa sets the terms. Alberta pays the price.
We have seen this movie before. Alberta can do better.

Metaโs $13B Alberta investment is evidence of what an independent Alberta could achieve.
When Alberta controls the rules, respects investment, and uses our energy advantage, the world shows up.
Now imagine what happens when Ottawa is no longer standing in the way.
This is the independence case in one announcement:
- Alberta creates clear rules.
- Alberta provides reliable energy.
- Alberta attracts global capital.
- Alberta creates jobs and revenue.
Now imagine Alberta with full control over taxes, immigration, trade, energy policy, and national priorities.
Vote for Option 2 in Oct. We can do better.
Ottawa has spent years treating Albertaโs energy advantage as something to punish.
The world sees it differently.
Meta sees Alberta energy as a foundation for growth, jobs, technology, and investment.
An independent Alberta would build on that advantage instead of apologizing for it.
