@ABDanielleSmith Imagine what Albertan can be without the shackles of ottawa. Independence is our only choice for REAL change, self-determination, and a brighter future
I’m all for folks pointing out the potential risks of Alberta separating. That’s a healthy part of the debate.
But this whole “the separation debate is killing investment” argument is complete BS. Every economic indicator says the exact opposite. Every. Single. One.
Muzzling important discussions is foolish. Have a free and open debate and trust Albertans to make the right decision.
Canada’s confederation no longer works for Alberta. A vast country governed by population weight will always leave Alberta politically subordinate to Ontario and Quebec. With our energy, agriculture, forestry, technology, and enterprise, Alberta has outgrown this arrangement. It is time for Albertans to take control of our future and redefine our relationship with Canada.
First of all, the brexit analogy conveniently ignores the fact that the transition was lead by pro-EU "remainer" politicians who made it as painful to the UK citizens as possible, probably out of spite. Do the UK citizens regret controlling their own destiny instead of leaving it in the hands of Brussels? Of course they don't. That's what alberta independence is about, SELF-DETERMINATION. We no longer want ottawa controlling everything we can and can't do, with impunity, while taxing us into oblivion.
I'm the head of a third party advertiser. I'm a fifth gen Alberta farmer, a third gen separatist, and entitled to my opinions. I don't lie about my bias like the CBC does.

Cute call for censorship. Insufferable crybully.
North Dakota produces roughly CAD$141,679 in economic output per person, compared to approximately CAD$71,708 in Alberta. Personal income is also substantially higher, at roughly CAD$90,662 per person compared to Alberta's approximately CAD$61,200.
That's what we could have without an anti-oil federal government.
In the late 1980’s the Reform Party of Canada's platform included a Senate "Triple-E" model: that is Elected by the people, Equal in provincial representation, and Effective in exercising legislative powers.
After trying to fix Canada’s broken systems for 50 years without success, it is time for Alberta to move on.
On October 19, vote option 2.
@ABDanielleSmith Ok, now add an Alberta Firearms License to that there piece of plastic and opt out of the current RCMP PAL and RPAL licensing system.
Today.

@JohnSpence33693@AlbertanAFk@SheilaGunnReid Let me get this straight
- The SCC has determined that a province can secede
- The Clarity Act sets out a process for secession
And you think that if AB applies the law set out by the courts and the HOC that the appropriate response is military action?
@TariqElnaga@vitamindees The NDP disappearing alone ensures one party rule in Canada.
60% of Canadians are leftists. The NDP will not be splitting the vote in the future.
"Independence would be hard work and expensive".
Of course it will, anything worth doing takes effort, and Albertan's don't shy away from work. As for the cost, two things:
1) We don't need every single thing on day 1.
2) Staying in Canada will be far more expensive in the long term.
Vote for Independence and be a founding citizen at the dawn of a new nation free of the burdens, restrictions, parasitic drains and pernicious authority of Ottawa and our "partners in confederation".
