That's the rub isn't it. If everyone that doesn't like separationist leaves Alberta for somewhere else, then there will be only voters who want separation. They'll become the loudest voice.
I don't see how they legally can separate, with the way the land treaty is with insigenious peoples, and that much of Alberta is Crown land.
Oh definitely not before the vote! We need as many people voting as possible.
I truly think the independence is not what they aim for. They want to join the USA but know that’s going getting votes right now. There is no way Alberta can be independent and if so the USA will invade first day and take over anyways.
I don't understand how they can't see that joining the USA is a disaster for them. Healthcare would be gone, and USA would just milk Alberta dry of oil, while losing so many social services they don't realize people actually rely on
It’s so hard to understand. I guess these are people like the Americans who slam universal healthcare in other countries. They are brainwashed into fighting whatever is good for them. I’ll never get any of this.
