Just want a fair deal.

[Vive l’Alberta libre @AlbertaVive]

Living in an independent Alberta gives me goosebumps. For the love of family, please make this happen. My family has lived in AB since the late 1800s. We are separate. We are feee from Ottawa. We are Alberta!

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Pierre Poilievre came to Calgary to sell nostalgia. Alberta needs reality.

Pierre gave a polished speech about Canadian unity.

He talked about veterans, prairie farms, the Stampede, and the promise of Confederation.

It was emotional, patriotic, well delivered.

But it did not answer the central question:

Why should Alberta stay in a country structurally built to extract from us?

Pierre says Alberta’s problems are “easily fixable.”

They are not.

If they were, they would have been fixed decades ago.

Alberta has voted Conservative, sent MPs to Ottawa, stayed loyal, and paid the bills.

And still, from 2007 to 2022, Albertans sent roughly $244.6 billion more to Ottawa than we received back.

That is not a temporary policy mistake.

That is the business model of Confederation.

Pierre frames the problem as bad Liberal policy.

But the deeper problem is the structure of Canada itself.

The Liberals need Alberta’s money.

The Conservatives need Alberta politically.

Without Alberta, the Conservative path to government becomes almost impossible.

Pierre can sympathize with Alberta’s grievances, but he cannot confront the solution.

The Conservative Party is not designed to represent Alberta first.

It is designed to win federal elections.

That means Alberta’s views must always be softened and repackaged for Ontario, Quebec, and Atlantic Canada.

Pierre says we can fix this in Ottawa.

But equalization is constitutionally entrenched.

Dismantling it would require constitutional change, and the provinces that profit from Alberta’s wealth would have to agree to give it up.

Why would they?

That is the trap.

Alberta is told to work harder, pay more, sacrifice more, and then politely ask the rest of Canada to stop taking so much.

That is not partnership.

That is dependency dressed up as unity.

Pierre said we should “lock arms” with other provinces.

But Alberta has locked arms for decades.

We locked arms while our energy sector was attacked, our pipelines blocked, and our wealth redistributed.

At some point, “lock arms” just means “stay in line.”

Pierre says Alberta needs different policies, not a different country.

But Alberta independence exists because more Albertans have realized Ottawa is not the disease.

Ottawa is the symptom.

The disease is Confederation itself.

A system where Alberta creates the wealth, carries the risk, takes the abuse, and still has no power to stop the extraction.

A system where our future depends on convincing voters thousands of kilometres away to develop our economy.

The issue is not whether Albertans love their neighbours, respect veterans, or appreciate the sacrifices that built this country.

We do.

The issue is whether the country they built still works for Alberta.

The answer is increasingly obvious.

It does not.

Pierre asked Albertans not to give up on Canada.

But what if Canada gave up on Alberta first?

What if Confederation has been replaced by a system where Alberta’s role is to produce, pay, and be quiet?

That is why this movement is growing.

Not because Albertans hate Canada.

But because Albertans have learned from experience.

Federal promises expire. Respect for Alberta is always negotiable. Conservative governments slow the damage but do not fix the structure. Liberal governments see Alberta as a revenue source. The rest of Canada will always vote in its own interest.

So Alberta must finally do the same.

Pierre came to make the case for a stronger Alberta within a united Canada.

But he never explained how Alberta escapes the fiscal trap, how equalization ends, or why the provinces profiting from it would ever vote to stop.

The speech was beautiful.

The argument was empty.

Alberta does not need another emotional appeal to stay.

Alberta needs power.

Alberta needs control over its wealth, its economy, its resources, and its future.

If Canada’s structure makes that impossible, the answer is not another federal promise.

The answer is independence.

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

The West is collapsing under its own weight.

Alberta still has a choice.

Independence isn’t a dream — it’s the only way forward.

Stand up. Speak out. Break free.

[The Reclamare @TheReclamare]

Denial of what?

Making undefinable slogans is purposeful propaganda to manipulate people with no interest in learning the specifics or getting involved.
It was borrowed from the Holocaust to do just that job.

@CoryBMorgan Doesn’t appear to be very literate. Mind you, in that community, this is likely considered top of the food chain.

[Cory Morgan @CoryBMorgan]

No realm of politics is more corrupt than everything connected with Canada's Indian industry.

Please focus on matters within your mandate, including roads, sewers, utilities, public safety, and snow removal.

Basic services that taxpayers expect are deteriorating while costs continue to rise, yet here you are.

They do not need municipal politicians using taxpayer-funded salaries and resources to campaign against democratic participation or insert themselves into matters they were never elected to control.

Let citizens have a say in their own future. That is what living in a free and democratic society means!

Thank you.

Ps. This video itself is poorly done (akin to the poor municipal services) and the performative theatre is difficult to watch.

Please do better. Public office is a serious responsibility, not a game, and citizens deserve to be treated with more respect than this.

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

Public office is a serious responsibility, not a game, and citizens deserve to be treated with more respect than this.

This is embarrassing. We need serious adults to run for these important positions. This performative nonsense needs to end.

CBC: "Oh, you killed 16 people? A fifth chance at avoiding deportation is more than appropriate."

ALSO THE CBC: "Oh, you were falsely accused of sexual assault? No fresh start for you."

@Doubletapp187 @DustyRoseYYC I’m a boomer and I absolutely fucking despise that guy. He is the reason I cancelled my @calgaryherald subscription.

[MadMatt @Doubletapp187]

Bell is a boomer propagandist.

He was the first to become part of the branch covidians and now he's being used as an attack dog against Alberta patriots.

He is one of the last boomer talking heads.

Mock and treat with disdain.

[Alberta Secession - Why? @cnm5000]

"To the undecided: this vote is about your future, your children’s future, and the kind of province we hand down. Voting "yes" means choosing prosperity on our own terms: lower taxes, more control, faster growth, and pride in self-governance.

Voting no means more of the same, which is watching our wealth flow east while we fight for scraps of autonomy."

@yegwave Am I the only white person that thinks the indigenous chiefs have fucking lost the narrative? Circle the wagons folks.

A handful of Chiefs are holding an entire nation hostage, preventing any progress.

[Gary Lamphier @lamphieryeg]

Great explanation of how Liberalism works.
Take your money, give a small piece of it back after running it through the govt's massive bureaucracy, then run an ad campaign posing as heroes for doing it.
You can't despise these people enough. 🙄

@TheReclamare And the nurse in the background was awesome apparently.

@TheReclamare He did my wife’s hip surgery. Crazy.

@CoryBMorgan @Coralie4955 I’m going to the Calgary Stampede this year but won’t be going to Elbow River Camp. Too dangerous for anyone who believes in Alberta. Blockading anyone wearing blue and mass grave denial will get you scalped.
