Eastern BC is not an independent legislative district (Province) it is part of the Province of British Columbia. Under the Constition of Canada there is no regional mechanism inside the law that will allow a town, municipality or any subdivision to separate from a Province. According to the SCC and International law, as clarified under [1998]2 SCR 217; 1998CanLll(SCC)(1998), 161DLR (1998) Provinces are not divisable. This means that small groups of disgruntalled assholes can't create their own autonomous zones within Provincial or Municipal jurisdiction.



Without laws like these anyone could claim political autonomy within any society or group. It is no different, in fact it is the same mindset that the Seattle "anarchists" liberating CHAZ from King County expouse declaring their "freedom". No, Northern BC is part of BC and will remain so. If the army and or police have to kill a few white haired terrorists and traitors so be it. If you don't like it leave, BC is indivisible, stay on your side of the Rockie you fucking Eastern pieces of shit.

In 1980, former pm PIerre remarked that Si le Canada est divisible, le Québec doit être aussi divisible." (This translates as, "If Canada is divisible, Quebec must also be divisible."



Look up the former Vancouver Island Party and the Parti Acadien in Northern New Brunswick for perspective.

He was wrong. What Trudeau said in 1980 was proven incorrect with the SCC rulings from 1998, provinces are not divisable. That is the law. The ruling makes practical sense in that it prevents idiots and groups of idiots from creating independent fiefdoms within federal, provincial or local jurisdictions. There is no legal demarcation or definition of "Eastern BC" therefore, as a political entity there is no independence of "Eastern BC" from the Province of BC. Basically, you can't take what you don't own. Throw in unceeded FN claims, Provincial and Crown lands that make up the vast majority of rural BC and there is no legal or practical mechanism to Balkanize BC. The 1998 law specifically addressed these issues in it's rulings.



Two unsuccessful fringe groups that are afoul of the Constition and the law provide no perspective what so ever. For fun, take your farm and try to suceed from the Province of Saskatchewan and start your own country. See what happens.



BC will remain whole, whinners and crybabys are welcome to leave. They won't be missed.

Did you read what I posted. BC, Canada can no longer block our trade. The new prairie state has a legal mechanism to challenge an act of war like that.



On the flip side, it protects Canada too. Imports from Asia cannot be blocked by the new prairie state.

I new some fool would mention that. An apples to oranges comparison that we have discussed at length in the Wexit movement.



That is still active today and is the result of a land dispute stemming from the Treaty of Ancón with Peru and the Treaty of Peace and Friendship of 1904 between Chile and Bolivia after the War of the Pacific (1879–1883).

BC's issues of separation from Canada are similar to what the Maritimes would have had, had the 1995 election results been different. But, it is a separate issue from prairie separatism. I get what the Western Wexiteers are saying. A new state will give them a mechanism under international law to get their goods to international waters that they do not currently have within a united Canada.



While I prefer united, but flexible federalism, I can see the draw of separation from an economic point of view. It would certainly make it harder for Canada, or an independent BC to say no a sovereign state.

We are talking two different things here. The reason for Wexit and I am a Wexiteer, is that we no longer have our economy knee-capped by Ottawa to win votes in Quebec and on the left Coast. As an independent state, Canada can no longer just deny us access to coasts.



Canada can whine all it wants, but Ottawa brought this on themselves.

If the prairie provinces leave, the further break up of Canada is inevitable. I propose some form of commonwealth of  independent Canadian or North American states.

Some US states will be in the same boat when the radical democRATs control all of the federal government. There should bea Pexit for states that produce oil. We can talk about Alberta and Saskatchewan merging with them.

We wouldn't need that if Ottawa would stop eroding provincial jurisdiction.

I cannot believe what I am seeing. I never thought any country would be at war with itself over the export of resources. Ships carrying dangerous goods come and go everyday in Vancouver. Some Canadians would prefer to break the country up than allow one part of Canada to export oil?? That is insane, especially when you think ships carrying foreign oil enter Canada everyday and vessels carrying foreign coal leave Canada everyday.

Former Wexit Leader Now Wants Alberta to Join the US



As the Western Canadian separatist movement Wexit has appointed a former Conservative as leader, its founder is pushing for Alberta to become the 51st state of the U.S.



By Mack Lamoureux



Aug 6 2020, 6:09pmShareTweetSnap



As the Western Canadian separatist movement Wexit becomes more mainstream, the group's founder is hoping to lead disillusioned western Canadians into the waiting arms of Donald Trump and to become the U.S.'s 51st state.



"Just like Wexit wasn't mainstream and now...is mainstream, the American option isn't mainstream but it will be," said Peter Downing, the driving force behind Wexit.



Wexit is a growing movement of conservative western Canadians who want to separate from eastern Canada. The group, built off existing separatist sentiment and western rage, was founded by Downing in early 2019 and has grown to become an actual political entity: it's now a registered party in Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan (although in some province's Wexit has changed names and merged with other separatists.



Downing recently resigned as the leader of the official Wexit party in June, making way for Jay Hill, a longtime mainstream Conservative Party politician from 1993 to 2010. The appointment of Hill, who had stints as both the chief Conservative Party whip and the house leader, granted Wexit a new air of legitimacy. It's also allowed Downing to focus on the next stage of his plan.



"Stage 2 is the next logical approach, to touch on what the Liberals and what the eastern Canadian elite fear the most: Alberta secession to the United States," Downing told VICE News. "All the arguments against (Albertan separation)—us being landlocked, losing investment—all those things simply just go away."



"We're looking forward to our Wexodous," he said. He's also launched a website for the "Alberta 51" movement.

I hope Scott Moe holds an equalization referendum here.



Taxpayers group urges Albertans to vote to abolish equalization in October referendum

https://tnc.news/2021/09/27/taxpayers-group-urges-albertans-to-vote-to-abolish-equalization-in-october-referendum/?fbclid=IwAR1-iIECmxyASUG-ZBj_Yw4OGQ2UOCIiPVoof9OiRGMbA2CCaPfSzf0oWQ4



A new Canadian Taxpayers Federation campaign is urging Albertans to vote yes to abolish equalization payments to have-not provinces,  weeks before Alberta's Oct. 18 referendum.



"Albertans have had it rough for the last six-plus years, and we're tired of being treated as the cash cow for the rest of Canada," said Kevin Lacey, the CTF's Alberta director and head of the Fight Equalization campaign. "Voting yes in this October's referendum is a great way to send the Trudeau government a message that the equalization status quo must go."



Since 1961, Albertans have paid $661 billion more to Ottawa than they have received back in spending. Encompassed in that amount is equalization, which costs Alberta taxpayers approximately $3 billion per year, or over $600 per Albertan.



Despite this significant contribution to Canada, the government has made it extremely difficult for Alberta's economy to develop by instituting policies such as the carbon tax, the tanker ban, and the anti-pipeline legislation.

Unlike equalization, though, provinces can opt out of participation in the CPP; Quebec already has.



In 2017, 16.5 per cent of all CPP contributions came from Alberta workers, while just 10.6 per cent of CPP expenditures made their way back to the province. The difference between what was paid in and paid out was $2.9 billion in 2017, the most recent year for which data are available. (Alberta paid in $8.1 billion and received $5.2 Billion)



Alberta contributes much more to Canada Pension Plan than its retirees take out: study

He never lost an election from the time he announced his candidacy for mayor of Calgary to the time opportunists in the old PC party of Alberta forced him out by stealth.
