Prairie independence will not destroy Canada.
After ten years of the Trudeau/Carney Liberals, there is no Canada left to destroy.

We are dealing with some really underhanded folks.

No comment.

By the end of 2026, Canada as you know it may not look the same, and Alberta will be the reason why.

In October 2026, Alberta is expected to vote on leaving Canada as support for independence continues to rise rapidly across the province. What began as frustration has matured into a serious, organized movement with momentum, structure, and public legitimacy.

That decision will not exist in isolation. The same month, Quebec will hold a provincial election that is likely to deliver a separatist government with a mandate to pursue another referendum. Alberta leaving would fundamentally change the political calculus for Quebec, accelerating a process that has already been set in motion.

Saskatchewan is watching closely. Its separation movement is growing quickly and polling support is already among the highest in the country. If Alberta reclaims its sovereignty, Saskatchewan will face an unavoidable question about whether remaining behind still makes sense.

British Columbia faces a different but related reality. With property rights under pressure and no viable constitutional path to protect them, independence or fundamental constitutional change may become the only remaining options.
Canada is not being pulled apart by extremists or instability.

It is being outgrown by provinces that no longer benefit from the federation.
Alberta is simply the first to acknowledge reality.

The independence-minded in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Quebec may actually be harbingers of a new global trend.

In January, UnHerd columnist Duncan Moench proposed that the US is well on its way to a break-up. According to Moench, the likelihood of US fragmentation becomes obvious to Americans when they recognize that "our governing institutions are too large, too centralized, and too culturally incoherent to sustain democratic legitimacy."

Large, centralized, one-size-fits-all government policies are frequently impractical, divisive, and democratically unacceptable in geographically, economically, and culturally diverse countries. Yet, powerful central governments with their Byzantine bureaucratic systems frequently draft legislation which is popular in a favoured region but inimical to the interests of people in other regions. 

Still waiting to hear one compelling reason for Alberta and Saskatchewan to remain a part of a declining Canada.

Separistism is always rears it's ugly head when the Liberals are in power. They are the party of division.

Alberta and Saskatchewan separation doesn't mean chaos or fantasy.
It means leverage.
It means decisions made here, not by people who never live with the consequences.
It means control over our resources, our taxes, and our future.
I don't talk about prairi separation because I hate Canada.
I talk about it because I'm tired of being taken for granted.
We produce. We pay. We get lectured.
That's not partnership — that's dependence.
Alberta separation isn't a threat.
It's what happens when being ignored stops working.
Staying quiet guarantees nothing changes.
Leverage changes everything.
