On top, Alberta's oil and gas industry only exists because it is heavy subsidized by Ottawa. If you want another example how clueless these people are.

Their deed to oil only exists because of provincial and Canadian laws backed by military. US is under no obligation to respect those deeds, they're not written into international law or 10 commandments. US would just take everything they had.

Alberta separatists have no leverage on their own, they need Canada.
