The federal equalization payments will see Alberta paying $26.2 billion, and receiving $0 in return. Every Canadian benefits from our energy. Why don’t we benefit from “equal”ization?
Share if you’re tired of Alberta being fleeced.

On October 19th, Albertans have a choice.

Keep sending over $20B a year to Ottawa while pipelines are blocked, investment leaves, and families get priced out.

Or choose an Alberta that controls its wealth, resources, borders, and future.

Vote for your children’s future.

I just finished watching this (2005) CBC documentary about the 1995 Quebec referendum.

It’s fascinating history, especially for Albertans.

Two things stood out.

First, around the 25-minute mark, Quebec separatists are shown building relationships with France and reaching out to the United States before the referendum. They were seeking recognition and discussing future economic relationships in the event Quebec voted to become independent.

CBC presents it as a matter of fact.

No panic.

No accusations of treason.

No outrage.

Just a recognition that if a region is considering independence, its leaders will naturally want to know what recognition, trade, and diplomatic relations might look like afterward.

Today, when Albertans have similar conversations with Americans, many of the same people immediately scream “traitor.”

Why?

What exactly is the difference?

Second, around the 50-minute mark, several political leaders discuss how important it is that a referendum question be clear and understandable.

That struck me because we’re seeing many of the same arguments in Alberta today.

Democracy works best when voters know exactly what they’re voting for.

Not when questions are engineered to create confusion.

Not when the goal is to muddy the waters.

Not when politicians try to manufacture a result.

History matters

And if you support Alberta independence, you should study Quebec.

Canada came far closer to breaking apart than many people realize.

For generations, Quebec maintained a strong identity, a distinct culture, and a vision for its future that often differed from the rest of the country.

English Canada understood that Quebec was different.

Yet when Albertans say we have our own culture, our own priorities, our own economic interests, and our own vision for the future, we’re told to stop asking questions and fall in line.

This documentary is worth watching; and I am nostalgic for when CBC had a semblance of journalistic integrity.

Join us next week on Thursday, June 18, for our EAA Aviation Museum Speaker Series as we welcome Stephen Chapis, author of “Poor Little Lambs: The Baa Baa Black Sheep Story.”

Stephen will take us behind the scenes of the 1976 TV show loosely based on the World War II Marine Corps squadron famously named “Black Sheep,” with never-before-seen footage and more. The show celebrates its 50th anniversary and has inspired many warbird enthusiasts.

The presentation begins at 7 p.m. and is free for EAA members and only $5 for nonmembers.

Hear, hear. Very well stated 👏

[Jon Alberta Patriot @JonFromAlberta]

FOREVER CANADA means accepting a political system where Alberta can be outvoted, overruled, and governed by people who do not live with the consequences of their decisions.

Start with representation.

Alberta has more than 4.4 million people.

Yet Alberta has only 37 MPs in the House of Commons.

The four Atlantic provinces, with a combined population of roughly 2.5 million people, hold 32 MPs.

Albertans do not receive representation proportional to our population.

Some provinces receive more political influence per person than Alberta does.

Then there is the judiciary.

The most important courts in Canada are ultimately shaped by federal appointments.

The Supreme Court has guaranteed seats for Quebec.

Alberta has no guaranteed seat.

Federal judges are selected through a system controlled by Ottawa, not by Albertans.

Many of the people making decisions about Alberta’s future come from different regions, different political cultures, and different economic realities.

They may be intelligent.

They may be well-intentioned.

But they do not live in Alberta.

They do not work in Alberta’s industries.

They do not raise their families in Alberta’s communities.

And they do not bear the consequences of the decisions they make for us.

Then there is the Senate.

Alberta, with more than 4.4 million people, has only 6 senators.

The Maritime provinces, with less than half Alberta’s population, have 24 senators.

Four times the senators.

Less than half the population.

That is not equal representation.

That is not regional equality.

For generations, Albertans have been told this imbalance is simply the price of Confederation.

But we see a pattern.

The institutions of Canada were not designed to give Alberta equal influence.

They were designed to preserve the influence of the east.

The result is a system where Alberta contributes enormously to the country, yet finds itself overruled by people who neither understand nor share Alberta’s priorities.

The people making the decisions do not live with the consequences.

The people living with the consequences cannot remove the decision-makers.

That is the problem.

Do you still support FOREVER CANADA?

I support Alberta Independence.

On June 28th, we are going to paint Taber blue!

The Pathway to Independence campaign has been getting thousands of signs into the ground.

Let's make sure Taber gets the most.

They earned it!

Edmonton,

Here's our billboard in the wild, near the Legislature!

More are coming very soon.

If you want to help us get even more billboards and lawn signs up, you can contribute on our official TPA website

@PierrePoilievre is correct, but wrong on how to fix it.

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Alberta can build pipelines.

Alberta can attract investment.

Alberta can grow.

What makes us “unfinanceable” is Ottawa’s carbon taxes, net-zero agenda, and policies Albertans never voted for.

We are being held back by a system working against us.

This is the moment a customer busted two @Shell workers running the screw scam to charge gas to other customers.

He told them straight: take the screws out or I’m ruining your entire company.

I’m so sick of people coming to America just to scam hard-working citizens. Deport every single one running these street-level cons.

Alberta,

Our billboards have been approved and we are now playing on three digital billboards around the Legislature in Edmonton!

If you are in the area, snap a photo and send it my way.

Help us keep these up and remind Edmontonians that it's their future and choice too.
