A house divided cannot stand.

[Let Alberta Decide @LetABDecide]

There are Albertans who already support independence.

There are Albertans who are still unsure.

Our job is to speak to both with clarity, facts, and respect.

Let Alberta Decide is here to build the campaign needed to win.

@globeandmail If Alberta can financially support Canada, Alberta can financially support Alberta.

Lets Go!!!

[Erik Thorvaldsson @erik_thorvalds]

So you want #AlbertaIndependence to win?

Some tactics need to change NOW:

No infighting. Movements fracture and lose when they eat their own. Unite around the core principle that Albertans should control their own future. Drop the ego.

Turn the cheek. When Ottawa provokes or media piles on, respond with maturity and facts instead of matching negativity. Show strength through composure.

Lead with ideas, not insults or personalities. Lay out clear policies on fiscal sovereignty, responsible resource development, environmental stewardship, and freedom from over-centralization. Paint a positive vision of what Alberta can become: prosperous, self-reliant, and a responsible steward of its lands and people.

Do not come out against immigration. Call for a population cap grounded in Alberta’s ecological carrying capacity. Our rivers, forests, farmland, and wildlife habitats are finite. Rapid growth has already strained water systems, infrastructure, and the wilderness that defines this place. Sustainable limits protect quality of life for current residents and future generations; Indigenous, rural, and urban alike.

This pragmatic, coalition-focused approach; partnering where possible, framing sustainability instead of grievance, staying unified, and staying above the fray — is how you grow beyond the current base and actually build something that can win.

If you are concerned about the Canadian MAID program, give this woman a follow. @Kelsisheren has been working tirelessly to expose this program for what it is….medical m*rd*r.

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

The problem is not one bad prime minister.

The problem is a system where Alberta can be outvoted forever by people who do not live here, do not share our values, and do not depend on the industries they regulate.

That is why independence matters.

[Eva Chipiuk, BSc, LLB, LLM @echipiuk]

Here is what Kenney sounds like: “Waahhh, it’s too hard to do complicated and difficult things, even if they may be in the best interests of the people. 😤😩”

It is embarrassing to watch a former Premier complain about how difficult negotiation, leadership, and governance might be, when that was literally his job!

All it really shows is that many of the people who were, or still are, in positions of power are not equipped to negotiate, lead, or govern through difficult circumstances.

And if the response to a democratic conversation is fear, ridicule, and hysteria instead of leadership and solutions, that says far more about the political class than it does about the public.

[Jason Lavigne @JasonLavigneAB]

Jason Kenney: "If Alberta leaves, it will create uncertainty for years, and chase away investors."

Canada: "Hold my beer."

According to the RBC, Canada has chased away $1 trillion in 10 years.

An Alberta free of Ottawa would be an investment haven.

The West Wants Out: Alberta Edges Closer to Independence from Canada

Canada’s most conservative province, Alberta, has grown increasingly frustrated with the federal government in Ottawa for decades. Now, the movement for greater autonomy—or even full independence—is gaining serious momentum.

In this Frontlines TPUSA exclusive, reporters @TaylerUSA and @kiansimone44 head west to speak with the leaders of Alberta’s independence movement. They explore what a more independent Alberta could mean for America’s energy and national security.

[John Tomkinson @johnwtomkinson]

Have you seen the Alberta Independence debate?

Jason Kenney is the voice of staying in Canada.

Keith Wilson is the voice of Alberta Independence.

Which path is best for you, for your children’s future, and your neighbours.

Watch and decide for yourself

[Jason Lavigne @JasonLavigneAB]

Wilson and Kenney both actually painted the exact same picture.

They both agree that Canada has not been fair to Alberta, Alberta has been fighting for decades, and the Federation is impossible to change.

The only place they disagree is how to address it.

Kenney say he thinks staying will eventually work. Wilson says it's time Alberta builds a new nation.

Wilson has a plan, Kenney does not.

I support Wilson.

[Derek Smith @unacceptfringe]

I am OFFICIALLY declaring what I think the branding message should be for the Campaign towards the October 19 vote in Alberta. "ALBERTA FIRST. MESSAGE SENT."

Alberta is sending a loud, unmistakable message straight to Ottawa: We are done getting screwed.

Done with Ottawa stealing our resource wealth through equalization while our classrooms are overcrowded and our hospitals are overwhelmed.

Done with uncontrolled mass immigration driving up housing costs and straining our services.

Done with the carbon tax, pipeline blocks, and every other policy that punishes Alberta for powering Canada.

Done with sky-high inflation and reckless federal spending that’s destroying our economy.

Alberta built this country. Alberta feeds and powers this country. Yet Ottawa treats us like an ATM they can raid while ignoring our struggles. No more. This is our province. Our resources. Our families. Our future.

On October 19, we rise up together and declare: ALBERTA FIRST.
Share this far and wide. Tag your friends, family, and MLA. Let Ottawa hear the roar from the West.
The message is being sent.

Finnish scientists trucked in real forest dirt and grass and laid it over the gravel at four daycare yards. They let the kids dig around in it for a month. The blood tests came back with changes the researchers hadn’t expected to see so fast or so clear.

The study ran at ten daycares in two Finnish cities with 75 kids aged three to five. Four of the yards got the forest treatment: about a tennis court worth of soil and grass laid over the gravel, plus planters and peat blocks the kids could dig and climb on. Three others stuck with their normal gravel yards. The last three were daycares where the kids were already visiting real forests every day.

After one month, the variety of bacteria living on the kids’ skin shot up, and the kind that helps train the skin’s immune defenses jumped the most. Their gut bacteria started to look like the gut bacteria of the forest-visiting kids. Their blood showed more of the immune cells whose job is to keep the body from freaking out at harmless stuff like pollen and peanuts, and overall inflammation dropped. The kids on the plain gravel yards showed none of this.

Childhood asthma in the US doubled between 1980 and 1995. Food allergies in kids jumped 50 percent between 1997 and 2011, then jumped another 50 percent between 2007 and 2021. And peanut allergies in one-year-olds tripled between 2001 and 2017.

The Finnish researchers think one of the reasons is simple: kids today don’t get dirty enough. 37 percent of American preschoolers now spend an hour or less outside on a normal weekday. Their immune systems are getting trained in environments stripped of the bacteria humans have always lived around.

Aki Sinkkonen, who led the study, put it in plain words: “It would be best if children could play in puddles and everyone could dig organic soil.” The Finnish government is now helping pay for daycares across the country to make the same changes.

[Keith Wilson @ikwilson]

Did an independence-focused interview with @realCTZN in their amazing Calgary studio. Interview should be up in a couple of days.

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Claude AI analyzed the Alberta independence debate.

Here's who won and why.

Keith Wilson and Jason Kenney debated the resolution "Be it resolved: The West should stay in Canada" at a public event in Calgary on May 25th.

Wilson argued for Alberta independence. Kenney argued for staying in confederation.

The audio recording of the full debate was used to generate a complete transcript. That transcript was uploaded into Anthropic's Claude and the AI was directed to conduct an unbiased analysis of the debate. No framing was provided. No sides were taken. Claude was simply asked to evaluate the strength of each side's arguments and determine who won.

Wilson's strongest arguments:

Canada is no longer an optimal size of governance for Alberta. Alberta has contributed an estimated $700 billion in net fiscal transfers to Ottawa. Alberta's GDP is larger than over 100 sovereign nations. 90% of Alberta's trade is with the United States. The federalist side has no realistic plan to fix Canada from within. The equalization referendum passed and Ottawa did not respond.

Kenney's strongest arguments:

All 47 First Nations treaty signatories refuse to recognize a transfer to an independent Alberta. The Edmonton partition question remains unanswered. No published transition plan exists 150 days from a potential referendum. Major capital investment would freeze during a separation process. The cost of building independent state infrastructure including NATO defense obligations is significant.

Claude's verdict:

Keith Wilson won the debate. Wilson controlled the framing from his opening statement and Kenney was unable to break free of it. The decisive factor was that Wilson posed one central challenge that went unanswered all night. Name a single realistic mechanism that forces Ottawa to reform. Kenney could not.

There is a lot of discussion right now about Alberta independence, but many of the loudest voices are still the ones with the biggest platforms, media access, or political influence. It is high time we actually heard from ordinary Albertans.

If you want your voice and opinion heard, get outside of your bubble and speak up publicly.

Write letters to the editors of newspapers and magazines in your area. Call into radio shows. Attend town halls. Ask questions at public events. Post respectfully online. Talk to your neighbours, coworkers, friends, and family. Reach out to your elected officials directly and tell them where you stand and why.

Democracy is not supposed to be something that only happens between politicians, media personalities, and commentators. Public opinion matters, but only if the public is willing to participate.

And importantly, do not just repeat slogans or react emotionally. Take the time to understand the issues, the legal realities, the economic implications, the opportunities, and the risks. Ask better questions. Listen to different perspectives. Challenge your own assumptions.

Whether you support independence, oppose it, or remain undecided, Alberta’s future should not be shaped only by the people with a platform. It should be shaped by informed citizens who are willing to engage thoughtfully and make their voices heard.

The more citizens participate, the harder it becomes for decision-makers and establishment to ignore the public.

Comment below with how you are going to make your voice heard!
