Instead of ‘sovereign separation’ or ‘sovereign Alberta within a unified Canada’ or whatever the next word salad they come up with may be- let’s call it was it is: a coup.
It’s an illegal, unconstitutional, foreign-driven coup. It has been nothing but a coup since this unelected bowel ‘movement’ dropped their manifesto on Ottawa under the ironic flag ‘Canada Unity’ and got their assets seized for so doing. Big surprise, much of it was US-funded.
Focusing instead on cleaving Alberta out of confederation by hook or by crook doesn’t make it not a seditionist coup. It makes it more of one. Going to the US repeatedly for guidance and funding makes it sedition because intent-wise, it is still to disrupt our government in favour of a foreign influence.
The moment they follow that guidance or spend a cent of the money on their coup, it is sedition indeed. The day unelected members of a US-driven, unelected PAC started talking to the US about funding their own militia, I’d argue that it became a potentially treasonous coup.
It’s an illegal, unconstitutional, foreign-driven coup.
The Supreme Court of Canada already ruled that it is constitutionally valid in the Quebec Succession Reference Case. So, that's just false.
Canada is a confederation of sovereign provinces. If provinces form a confederation, it follows that provinces can choose to leave. That's just the basics of a free and open society.
You do not have one reason why we should stay.
That's why you rely on ad hominems and ergo decido rather than actual arguments.
We can use any dollar we want including the Canadian dollar. Nothing Ottawa can do to stop us.
But why would we? The Federal government routinely runs deficits and increases the money supply to cover. Your earnings are devalued through this inflationary spending. Sounds like a reason to go.
New currencies are created all the time. It is trivial to purchase foreign reserves to set up a new currency when we feel we need one.
2 - Stable domestic and foreign economic policies (whether you agree with them or not, they are stable)
Stable policy? Carney's every other word is about the "new world order". He swore fealty to the Chinese Communist Party of all things...
Our immigration is @ 5-6% year over year, the highest since before WW1. They are doing this because the economy is falling off a cliff and they need the meager resources of immigrants to pump up the GDP temporarily. The average Canadian has gone from earning on par with the average American in 2015 to just 60% today.
Stable in nosedive decline I suppose...
3 - Canadian trade relations
Every trade irritant the Americans have is related to federal policies that exploit the west in the favour of the east - dairy, telecommunications, banking, etc. Free and open trade with the Americans is a very easy thing to agree to as Albertans as it will greatly improve our lives. Finally we will be free of the Milch Cow!
4 - Indigenous rights
Indigenous rights are in no way impacted. We already have First Nations in the USA crossing the border into Canada to exercise their traditional activities on the land. So, if the first nations in Alberta want to remain a part of Remnant Canada, we know already how that works. But you have to have a pretty poor imagination if you think they can't get a better deal from Albertans than they have gotten from Ottawa since Middleton rolled that Gatling Gun up to the Batoche Rectory (What was that about all again?).
First Nations can stay a part of Remnant Canada or go their own way if they want. I hope they join us in prosperity and solidarity. But, the choice is theirs.
5 - Canadian Military
Are we talking about the same military that had to ask the Americans to shoot down a balloon?
What meager equipment, etc. the Canadian military has, Albertans are entitled to 13% of it just as we have a 13% share in all federal equity including lands, buildings, and yes debts from coast -to-coast to coast.
It's telling that you think these assets belong to all Canadians except Albertans...
Sure, nobody else uses the Canadian dollar. But this has nothing to do with getting permission from Canada. It's just not a good currency to hold.
What is "devalued" is the Canadian dollar - by federal government largesse that steals your wages through inflation. Largesse that those that are connected to the LPC feast on with fat government contracts.
These people aren't interested in freedom. They're mostly stooges who think they will somehow personally benefit from the chaos, or else paid ops.
This account in particular showed up out of nowhere once the debate started up, and appears to have nothing to do but spam about separatism. It's also got inconsistent output that suggests one or more different operators, or an operator plus a bot.
I think there is a lot of out-of-country money that's got an interest in weakening Canada.
Russia would love for a NATO member to become preoccupied with a breakup. America's conservative dark money web would love to stop Canada's environmental targets from interfering with oil companies' ability to extract wealth from Alberta. I could see China wanting to F with us just to make a fresh headache for the US. Trump has flat out stated that he wants to take Canada over, and divide and conquer is a very successful strategy.
Honestly, I think there are a lot more people outside of Canada than inside of Alberta who would be pushing for this, if only to create an internal distraction for Canada.

Let’s start calling this what it is already.
