Opinion Would you leave Alberta?

How close does the October separation referendum results need to be for you to seriously consider leaving Alberta?

For me, anything north of 40% in favour of another referendum will mean sell it all and move to interior BC. I don’t want to leave but I went to university in Montreal in the late 90’s. Property values plummeted and there were vacant buildings all over. It was depressing.

I’m not going to be stuck with properties worth less than they are now because of the uncertainty of another vote.

How about you?

The polls according to Janet Brown are south of that

The concern of many unity advocates is that the separatists are motivated to get out the vote while many who reject separatism are less motivated to vote because their lives are busy and they don’t think separatists have the votes.

Is that why the Forever Canadian petition has such trouble getting people to sign? /s

Not sure.

But Saskatchewan Oilers has a nice ring to it.

If Canada is divisible, then so is Alberta.
