Quote from: DKG on Today at 09:44:22 AMIn the '90s, many car decals across the country proclaimed "My Canada includes Quebec." I haven't seen any equivalent "My Canada includes Alberta" decals. Have you?

I remember that before the 1995 referendum in Quebec. And no I have never seen a bumper sticker that reads "My Canada includes Alberta." I am sure I won't either.

The Carney government says they would honour a fifty percent plus one yes sovereignty vote in either Alberta or Quebec. This is surprising considering the Clarity Act sets the bar at sixty percent.

Canada's economic model is producing some of the worst outcomes in the G7, while Alberta continues to produce the wealth, energy, and opportunity Ottawa depends on.
It's time for Alberta to choose independence.

Every year, Alberta sends billions more to Ottawa than it gets back.
An Independent Alberta would be an economic powerhouse.

Albertans are tired of watching Ottawa dangle pipeline promises while attaching the very policies that make energy investment impossible.

As someone who supports Danielle Smith, it's frustrating to watch Mark Carney string her along with an MOU loaded with conditions that make sure nothing ever actually gets built in Alberta.

In an independent Alberta, we would be free to develop our natural resources without the Liberals' insane, radical climate agenda attached to every project.

Mitch Sylvester handed in his petition papers just a few hours ago.

The result?

Sylvester announced that the canvassers collected 301,620 signatures.

That is over a quarter of a million signatures.

That's more signatures than the number of votes Justin Trudeau received in Alberta during the 2021 federal election – with 299,000 votes.

This is the result of a lot of hard work from thousands of Albertans who stepped up and became canvassers over the last few months.

Though unofficial, Stay Free Alberta's total would exceed the required 177,732 signatures to trigger a referendum by 123,888, and Sylvestre says it is because of the hard work of all the canvassers and volunteers who helped them reach their final number.

This is bullshit to try to stop support for independence.

For too long, Alberta families have watched their wealth flow east. $244.6 billion more than we've received back since 2007.

And now parental rights are eroding. Federal policies increasingly intrude on family decisions: what schools teach, how children are raised, and values that were once the parent's domain.

A sovereign Alberta constitution would guarantee: Parents' right to raise their children according to their values.

Alberta and Saskatchewan are the only two provinces to have added net new jobs since Carney became pm. If we lose you we will be forced to beg the U.S. to admit us as new territories.

Trump approves permits for pipelines moving Alberta oil south.
Meanwhile, Canada's federal government continues to treat Alberta energy like a problem to manage instead of an asset to unleash.
This is exactly why Alberta needs independence.

An independent Alberta and Saskatchewan will nit beg for pipelines.
We approve them on a Tuesday and break ground on Wednesday.

A no brainer.
