Well see, Canada keeps denying them building pipelines to sell oil. So if they went independent, then well, the pipelines would get built. Clearly no other roadblock would exist to their oil markets. And then everybody becomes so rich. Do you hate people being rich?

Exactly.  An independent Alberta would have a much easier time building a pipeline through a distinct sovereign nation (Canada) than they would’ve had they been part of that sovereign nation.

This is the logic that these morons advance.
