@Martyupnorth Oh but apparently she has to consult with First Nations. 🤦‍♂️ We are not a serious country.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

@Martyupnorth Yeah, including the ones that think Christ and his believers are the infidel. 🤦‍♂️

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

This will be a great representation of the AB population as this page is followed by both sides of the argument. Please share to get a larger audience.

[cm @cmcalgary]

Do you agree that the Province of Alberta should cease to be a part of Canada to become an independent state?

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

@BertaProudDad @Zone3Garden Keep reminding the fence sitters of the tanker of LNG that came from Australia to East Coast. Purchased from Australia LNG which is owned by (drum roll please) BROOKFIELD. Another slap in the face.

@QuickDickMcDick @tuesday7595 Maybe they would wake the fuck up if we imported car parts since it seems like that’s the only industry we have in this failed nation.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

Has anybody found a surefire method to get the 30 and under crowd to jump on the AB independence wagon? I thought telling them that Quebecers get free college education on Alberta’s dime would work. 🤷‍♂️

@Martyupnorth Everyone forgets that Harrison Ford was also the infamous Rick Deckard in Blade Runner which gives him the trifecta of awesome characters.

@Glammatina @david_parker Now we have Onoway/Rich Valley in the mix. Going to have one with kids’ friends this weekend.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

@stinkynutss 6MG???? That’s like advertising you own an AR15. 🤣 JK. The Coffee flavoured ones are the best.

@Martyupnorth @CoryBMorgan @Coralie4955 @KevyAlberta
@Kitty993189 and anyone else, please share this signing and speaking event in Rich Valley on Wednesday.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

I’m hoping everyone in the area that follows me can share this. Rich Valley is close for Westlock, Barrhead, Onoway.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

@222Minutes I’ve been waiting months for a real debate. 🌶️ 🔥

Canada’s national symbol tells a story—just not Alberta’s.

The maple leaf is presented as a unifying emblem, something meant to speak for a vast and diverse country stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Prairies to the Arctic. But symbols matter precisely because they reveal what a nation actually sees itself as. And the truth is this: the maple leaf does not represent Canada as lived by Albertans. It represents the Canada that formed first, governed longest, and still holds the levers of power.

Geographically, the maple leaf is rooted in a very specific place. The sugar maple grows naturally along the St. Lawrence River corridor—southern Ontario and Quebec—the historic heart of colonial settlement, administration, and trade. That region became the political and cultural core of Confederation. Its values, assumptions, and priorities hardened into institutions. Over time, its identity became national identity by default.

That is not an accident. It is how centralized states form.

The maple leaf emerged as Canada’s defining symbol during a period when the country was actively consolidating authority away from the regions and toward Ottawa. It replaced British imperial imagery not with a truly pan-continental symbol, but with one drawn from the Laurentian heartland—the same elite corridor that still dominates federal politics, media, finance, and bureaucracy. The leaf symbolizes continuity: smooth governance, managed consensus, institutional authority, and moral legitimacy conferred from the centre outward.

Alberta’s story could not be more different.

Alberta was not shaped by river valleys and administrative capitals. It was shaped by open prairie, harsh winters, distance, risk, and work that actually had to produce something real. Its culture grew from homesteaders, ranchers, farmers, rig workers, tradespeople, and entrepreneurs—people who could not afford abstraction. Survival required responsibility. Prosperity required effort. Freedom was not theoretical; it was practical.

Where the Laurentian model values centralized planning, Alberta values earned outcomes. Where the eastern establishment trusts institutions first, Albertans trust individuals who show up and do the work. Where Canada’s federal culture emphasizes regulation, process, and moral posturing, Alberta emphasizes contribution, accountability, and results.

And yet Alberta is governed as if it were an afterthought—an economic engine to be managed, restrained, and redistributed, not a people with a distinct identity and legitimate claim to self-government.

That is the deeper conflict. Alberta is not merely “discontent.” It is misrepresented.

The maple leaf asks Alberta to see itself reflected in a symbol that grew somewhere else, emerged from someone else’s history, and now legitimizes a centralized system that consistently overrides Alberta’s democratic will. It asks Albertans to accept moral authority from institutions they did not build, governed by elites who neither understand nor respect the culture that built this province.

Alberta independence is not about anger or symbolism for its own sake. It is about alignment—between a people and the system that governs them. A nation’s symbols should reflect its land, its work, and its values. When they do not, the problem is not the people who feel alienated. The problem is the structure that insists on speaking for them anyway.

Alberta does not need to be “included” in someone else’s story.

It is strong enough to write its own.

Now go sign the petition and bring 25 friends!

@RobbyBerger I hope FP is more like himself in this round. He seemed off in round one. Do you guys struggle not swearing when you are on Grant or BB’s channels? I sure the f*ck would.

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

Thanks @elonmusk, please note that we will need some great leadership and investment in our new nation…..

[Prairie Steel @PrairieSteel2]

The last couple days, major American influencers have posted and reposted about #AlbertaIndependence

This is the townhall @elonmusk wanted to create!

Canadian MSM, @CBCNews @globalnews and @CTVNews have ignored us, but “X” brings the truth!

Get your news here!!!

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

I like the fact that someone would go to see what’s going on because the. there is an opportunity for open debate. Those adamantly opposed to the idea of independence would never stand in line. Sort of the same reason why I won’t be allowed at Christmas anymore, the opposed people don’t like debating. 😂

[Scotty P from AB @SoloEquipProd]

This guy is like herpes, never goes away. Another reason why the WEF is f’d. 🤦‍♂️
