Jason Nixon (and many others) are trying to make the case that Albertans receive good value from Ottawa for all the money we send there.
This year alone, Alberta taxpayers (citizens and businesses will send the following money to Ottawa:
Income Tax: $30 billion
Corporate Tax: $12 billion
GST: $9 billion
CPP & EI: $10 billion
Misc. fees: $8 billion.
That's a whopping $69 billion..... which by the way, is equivalent to 80% of our provincial budget.
We get back the following in transfers and direct services:
Health transfers: $13.3 billion
Equalization: $0
CPP & EI: $7.5 billion
OAS: $3.5 billion
For a measly total of $24.3 billion.
The difference is $44.7 billion.
Are you happy with the "services" you're getting from Ottawa for that $44.7 billion (military, coast guard, embassies, border security, museums)?
I'm convinced we could do better on our own.
For context, most western governments run on budgets equivalent to 30-40% of their county's GDP.
Alberta's GDP was $360 billion in 2025, so as a independent country, it would be quite normal for our government to spend $105-$144 billion per year.
Alberta's spending last fiscal years was $81 billion. That means that as a country, we need to replace $24-$63 billion.
It's 100% doable. Would we save a lot of money in the near-term? No. But that's not the driver. An independent Alberta will unleash it's prosperity, and preserve its culture.
WTF is going on in Canada?
This man presented some concerns to the school board in a very respectful way.
Next thing you know, the cops pull him over and force him to go be evaluated by some liberal psychologist.
Is this normal in Canada? Is this how they treat their citizens?

With alberta he is likely to offer a pipeline this Sept. As with above he doesn't have to execute, just announce he will.
However, independence isn't about pipelines
These fake, AI driven accounts, pushing Alberta as a 51st state are actually sponsored by the Liberals.
Let me simplify it for you.
Any story pushed or promoted by CTV, Global, the CBC or any other mainstream outlet in Canada, is just Liberal propaganda.
Turn that shit off.

This is Canada's rocket launch facility in NS.
The article says:
"Little more than a concrete shed pad at the end of a gravel road with two sea cans, Maritime Launch’s “Spaceport Nova Scotia” was recently lavished $20 million a year for 10 years by our federal government to further develop its facility...
They're boasting to investors that they can send rockets into space on “150+” launch days a year."
It's nothing more than a $200 million money laundering scam. Read the article to find out all the connections to Ukraine.
Our governments are so rupteur, and the citizens just allow it to happen.
