Texas has zero state income tax and a median household income that is effectively $24,000/year higher than Alberta's when you adjust for the exchange rate and purchasing power. They have the same oil we do; they just don't have an Ottawa taking $20 billion a year out of their pockets.

Ottawa has unleashed economic chaos.
Falling standard of living
Dead-last growth
Runaway debt
Generational unaffordability

Prairie independence means leaving behind a failing system and rebuilding the stability, investment climate, and economic growth that drive prosperity.

We will take this money with us and add to it.

With the latest floor crosser joining the Liberals, Canada is on the verge of its first unelected Liberal majority government.
Alberta and Saskatchewan need to leave Canada.

Damn good advice from a damned good premier.

Each year, Alberta sends significantly more to Ottawa than it receives back in federal spending and services. Estimates range between $15 and $27 billion annually.

This is not a one-time occurrence — it happens year after year.

Since 1960, the cumulative net contribution has been estimated at over $650 billion.

To put that into perspective:

$27 billion could fund approximately 135 new hospitals
It could eliminate property taxes for Albertans
It could provide free post-secondary education for a generation
These numbers are part of an ongoing national discussion about fiscal balance and provincial autonomy.

Ottawa's policies have cancelled over $670 billion in Albertan and Saskatchewan resource investment since 2015.

An independent prairie republic would attract investment, not chase it away.

Alberta is staring down provincial deficits because they ship billions East while Ottawa suffocates their energy sector and overloads their local services with immigrants. They are literally paying them to punish Albertans.

Independence keeps their own wealth home to balance their our own books. Not buy Liberal votes in the East.

Ottawa's reckless spending created a massive cost-of-living crisis, and now working prairie folks are paying the price at the grocery store. They broke the economy, and we suffer the consequences.

Independence lets us build our own affordable future.

This week, a man walked into Mitch Sylvestre's sporting goods store in Bonnyville, placed a bullet on the counter, and told staff: "This is for Mitch." Mitch Sylvestre is the head of the Alberta Prosperity Project which is spearheading the drive for enough signatures to get a vote on independence.

That's not politics.

That's a threat.
