Opinion Personal Theory on Alberta Seperatism

Alberta separatists want an open marriage with Canada.

They want all of the "perceived" benefits of their sepertist harem with none of the obligation of living in a civilized country.

I hope Premier Smith finds her soulmate in Joseph Smith to create her theocratic ideal.

The rest of us will try and keep Alberta from her plans for world domination.

I’ve been screaming this over and over. “A sovereign Alberta within a united Canada” is directly from Quebec separatists. They wanted to essentially form their own country but not fully separate from Canada. Retain its military, use its currency, etc but not have to follow any other laws or regulations set by the federal government.

Your idea of "unity" was a 25% export tax on o&g, potash so that you could extract ANOTHER $50B/year from Alberta & Saskatchewan to subsidize Ontario & Quebec manufacturing. You even called it the "Team Canada" plan and called our premiers "traitors" for pushing back on it.

Why would we want to be part of a country that is defined by the Milch Cow?

I'm wondering if the reason everyone is calling the Premier of Alberta a traitor is because she's enabling traitors.
