It would appear that after 10 years of Trudeau and in the face of the current U.S.-Canada trade 'discussions', the Premier of Alberta has had enough.... it seems that things may be about to get far more real than most Canadians realize or want.

Flirting with the US? Gotta be hot.

[ComputerGuy]

Alberta, huh? I wondered which province was going to be first.

[BenLurkin]

Maybe a good choice for state #51?

We do not want Ontario or Quebec.

Lotta nice people from AB that like to winter in Arizona.

Be a lot easier if there was no border for them to cross.

Saskatchewan and BC would be cool too, but a bit harder to digest.

I expect Alberta to get slapped down..

Here’s the list:

I provided a specific list of demands the next Prime Minister, regardless of who that is, must address within the first six months of their term to avoid an unprecedented national unity crisis.

This includes:

• Guaranteeing Alberta full access to oil and gas corridors to the north, east, and west

• Repealing Bill C-69 (aka. “no new pipelines act”)

• Lifting the tanker ban off the BC coast

• Eliminating the oil and gas emissions cap, which is a production cap

• Scrapping the so-called Clean Electricity Regulations

• Ending the prohibition on single use plastics

• Abandoning the net-zero car mandate

• Returning oversight of the industrial carbon tax to the provinces

• Halting the federal censorship of energy companies

I also made it clear that Alberta, as owner of the resource, will not accept an export tax or restriction of Alberta’s oil and gas to the United States, and that our province is no longer agreeable to subsidizing other large provinces who are fully capable of funding themselves. Lastly, I made it clear that federal mismanagement of Jasper and Banff national parks resulted in last year’s tragic wildfire in Jasper and is endangering Banff, and the situation must be rectified immediately.

With the federal election about to be called, I encourage all Albertans to get involved in what is likely one of the most pivotal and important elections in our nation’s history, and to support the party and candidates that have consistently advocated for freeing Alberta from federal overreach and the repeated economic attacks our province has faced from Ottawa over the past 10 years.

Secession Now!

I think part of President Trumpvwants the Liberals to win, so Alberta leaves. Alberta is more American than Massachusetts.

[llevrok]

Albertans have been upset for years mostly because the federal government sucks billions of oil revenue from the province and gives most of it to Quebec and Ontario. Little stays in province.

The worrisome part of Alberta is Calgary and Edmonton, the population centers, have large NDP voting blocks (NDP are far left)

Aberta: Really North Dakota
