I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.

That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.

You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.

Already-low Alberta separatism support drops sharply from early 2026: Ipsos poll

Let’s keep in mind that the only reason we’re even having this stupid, divisive referendum is because Danielle Smith, for her own selfish political reasons, wanted to pander to her separatist base.

Fact: Reporting shows Danielle Smith’s USELESS separatist referendum could cost up to $80,000,000

That **COULD** pay for:

👩‍⚕️ 230 Doctors
👨‍⚕️ 797 Registered Nurses
🏥 2.6 Rural Hospitals
💻 133 CT Scanners

Instead: we get NOTHING but a non-binding election

What a waste

Hey AB: I know all this rain sucks, but you know what’s worse? Getting rained on when you are stranded in an EMS overflow area in the UAH ED!!!

Got sent pics of the collapsed roof (from all of the rain)! 12 pt care spaces impacted.

Means longer waits for all!

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Alberta's hospitals are literally collapsing.

But the UCP say everything is fine.

While Canada performs reconciliation, it’s bankrolling the invasion of Indigenous territories in the Amazon. $1.83 billion in Brazilian gold flowed into Canada in 2024 alone — making us the #1 destination for gold that is being laundered out of stolen Indigenous territory. Poisoned rivers. Pregnant Indigenous women with mercury in their blood. Nearly 100,000 hectares of Amazon forest gone. And the gold funding all of it? It’s sitting in Canadian banks, pension funds and the jewelry you buy right now. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is documented. There are receipts.

The ministry claims ~5M population vs 5.5M AHCIP cards means 'misuse.' Reality: Alberta’s population hit ~5.03M in Q2 2025. The extra cards are mostly outdated records — people who moved, died, or left — not fraud. AMA already called similar claims factually wrong. Fix the admin backlog instead of blaming Albertans.

More separatist lies debunked: “Citizens in a new Republic of Alberta would have no entitlement to Canadian citizenship in the absence of Canada's consent," said Gerard Kennedy, an associate professor in the faculty of law at the University of Alberta. https://t.co/NLe03iQ1N7

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Wherein Spanky briefly takes his attention away from his boss Danielle Smith's "bigger balls than any of those Laurentian elites" to ignore the fact that restrictive voter ID laws disenfranchise voters...

And then spits up every disproven voter fraud conspiracy theory.

WTF?

Smith’s argument is ‘Finland, Brazil & Spain put citizenship on ID too?’

True…but to enable travel

Their cards double as PASSPORTS

Alberta has NO borders to cross and issues NO passports

Citizenship is Ottawa’s job!

So why does an Alberta “One” card need it?

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

.@ABDanielleSmith Wasn’t your government suppose to campaign for unity?

Why is your Finance Minister now saying that separation may be good?

“That doesn’t mean it’s not the right process but it’s not cheap. It’s not cheap by any means to set up a country.”

#ableg #cdnpoli

[Jason Scott 🇨🇦 @JasonOnTheDrums]

#ableg #cndpoli #canpoli

Let’s be clear:

1. PROVINCES issue ID cards
2. COUNTRIES issue ID cards that encodes citizenship

Alberta’s new “one” card encodes citizenship

This is a pretend national ID card.

Danielle Smith is a pretend Canadian and a closet separatist.

Period.

BAD NEWS FOR SEPARATISTS!

Alberta’s Support for Danielle Smith’s separation COLLAPSED to just 18%

A new Ipsos poll found NOT EVEN 2/10 Albertans *actually* support leaving Canada…DOWN 10 POINTS since January

Of the 18% support…only 9% are committed

Not even 1/10 😬

They are forcing Donald Trump to take his name off of Kennedy’s memorial so now he’s trying to put it on Lincoln’s.

He’s a fucking sociopath.

You may have voted UPC for business reasons.

Are you staying for the incompetence, or their out of control spending on the destruction of everything good?

[DKGray @TheRealDKGray]

If cruelty is not the point, these program cuts are a disaster.

With every voter’s address now out in the breeze, victims of domestic violence are going to end up dead.

You can thank your UCP MLAs.

Like they give a fuck…

Danielle Smith just told you separation would cost Alberta nearly $400 billion.

Not me. Not Ottawa. Danielle Smith.

Her own words: “I came up with almost $400 billion worth of transitional costs that we’d have to assume, in addition to somewhere between $25 billion and $50 billion worth of annual costs.” 

Here’s what’s inside that number.

Alberta’s share of the national debt alone: roughly $170 billion, plus $10 billion a year in interest. Then add border control, NATO commitments, regulating banks, railways, telecoms, post offices, CPP, EI, old age security, and child tax benefits. All of it. From scratch. 

And here’s what disappears on day one.

In 2025-26, Alberta received a $6.6 billion Canada Health Transfer and a $2.1 billion Canada Social Transfer.  Gone. No negotiation. No phase-out. Gone.

Alberta’s entire provincial revenue in 2025-26? $74.1 billion. 

So you’d owe nearly $400 billion upfront, plus $25-50 billion every single year, on a revenue base of $74 billion.

That’s not a country, it’s a bankruptcy filing in the making!

Economist Trevor Tombe puts the economic damage at $30 billion in lost GDP and 8% of the population leaving for work. 

Economist Lennie Kaplan estimates $130 billion in lost GDP over just the first decade. 

The separatists say Smith is lying. Jeffrey Rath of the Alberta Prosperity Project claims the transition would only cost $6 billion.  Six billion. For a new country.

That’s not an economic plan.

Not a single credible economist, constitutional scholar, or former finance minister has endorsed the separatists’ numbers. 

Danielle Smith built her career telling Albertans Ottawa was robbing them. Now she’s telling you leaving would cost nearly $400 billion.

Maybe listen to her on this one.
