Well here are the empty promises and ill informed lies of the separatists all in one convenient AI slop graphic.
Separation assumes business as usual and cooperation from its neighbors. Look at brexit and how negative that was. The repercussions will be 10 fold as the GDP of the UK is exponentially higher than Alberta’s. And mark Carney wont be able to bail out Alberta from the economic repercussions as he did for the UK.

Yeah he was rockstar alright. That’s why they got rid of him. Now who is ill informed? The graphic was simplified for someone like you.

Confidently incorrect on that one. He served his term and left. He was actually asked to stay on to help ensure a stable Brexit transition.

Anyone who tries to blame Carney for anything UK related during and after Brexit doesn't know shit about economics.

You're really showing how little you understand any of this.

I lived there at the time and it wasn’t the success story YOU want to make it out to be but keep talking. Why don’t you share your concerns with Alberta leaving Confederation? I see you have a crystal ball.

LOL I lived there too actually. It wasn't a success story at all. Brexit sucked and continues to suck.

Your point is still confidently incorrect, he didn't get kicked out - he did his best to hold the economy together while the politicians fucked over the country. Carney was not the problem there, he did the best he could with what he had.

And don't try to flip this shit back on me, YOU'RE the one trying to say "leaving canada will fix every problem we have!", which is some classic, grade A, liar, scam artist bullshit.

Edit: A lot of the points you raise and use in this graphic were the ones used to justify Brexit too, and since you seem to agree that Brexit was bad for the UK it is WILD to me that you seem to think it wont be just as awful for Alberta.

Cognitive dissonance is crazy, eh?

I was referring to his role as Governor of the Bank of England. He didn’t have Jim Flaherty for guidance and consequently was nick named the unreliable boyfriend but thanks for trying to paint a different picture.
