What a thorough and insightful analysis of what is happening in Canada in general and Alberta in particular. I learned a lot here. Hopefully, the movement to rid the unaccountable elite from being our overlords will gain momentum throughout the world.
Thanks, Jim. I'm with you in hoping for radical change (counter-revolution, per Victor Davis Hanson), the 'Better Story' as told by the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship ... essentially a tidal wave of common sense with all credit to American voters and the inestimable Donald Trump.
Woo hoo, Mike! That's good news indeed. Give us about a year to collect the signatures, petition for a referendum, then vote? After that we'll be wide open for business (and welcome all hard-working - former - Canadians)!
Who has money these days to start fresh somewhere else?! I'll admit it's tempting, Sophia, but I'm not ready to quit yet. Canada maybe, but not Alberta: there's still hope for us, I believe.
Carney’s platform if you read it, is noticeable for what it doesn’t say. Not a word about developing Alberta’s resources or getting them to market. Plenty about Net Zero by 2050, carbon capture, sustainability and all the usual climate change nonsense but not a word about oil and gas.
To build more competitive manufacturing and services sectors, Canada must invest to become a clean energy superpower in nuclear, hydro power, wind, hydrogen, battery storage and carbon capture.
It’s scary that he might actually be PM without ever having been elected and that he probably plans to drag the country further down the road to serfdom.
Thank you for the link, and for confirming my suspicions about his intentions.
Worrisome indeed, and I'm in complete agreement with your assessment. How on earth does our system permit piracy of this nature?! (That's pretty much what it seems, doesn't it: he's hijacked our government, and not a vote cast.)
Thanks, Daithi, and no, I haven't read it. I've read and listened to quite a bit about what others have to say about it; most notably Liz Truss (former PM of the UK). She provided a stark warning citing his contribution to the current deindustrialization mess in her country and the likelihood his destructive environmental policies would fell Canada. Net Zero = no oil and gas as I understand it.

I will move to Alberta if they propose separation, as will many Canadians from coast to coast. 🇨🇦

Yes time to use the Trump system and west seperation
It won't happen overnight, I'm afraid. Every signature on the referendum will count!
I want to move to Arizona but not as much money as you have. Love to get out of Canada

Once again JP is sharp as a razor! Thanks for sharing
