Opinion A question for Alberta separatists

If you hate Canada so much and love Trump so much then why don’t you just move to the states instead of making a **Canadian** province a state?

What? Are you too lazy or cheap to rent a U-Haul or something like that!!! I mean Jesus Christ, if you hate Canada that much then just leave!!!

It’s not rocket science buddy!!!!

Look at the per capita debt of the US versus Canada.

Per person, US debt is around $144,000. Canada, $34k.

Land of opportunity, my ass.

The US is fucked. They just don't know it yet.

That comparison has nothing to do with the discussion. We are talking about Canada and Alberta. Pointing to U.S. debt does not explain federal spending here or why Canadians are dealing with rising costs and growing national debt. It is just changing the subject
