I am an Albertan and I am 100% supportive of Danielle as our leader and I also support separation from Canada if things don’t improve hugely. Why are Canadians so against prosperity? It’s so weird and sad.
I agree with the above statement. I, too, am an Albertan, and this Liberal government could silence Separatism by giving us the right that is law in Oddiwa, of the right to passage of Pipelines. If they don't, Alberta will get it by separating! It is as simple as that!
It is our right, written into the laws of the land, that Ottawa cannot prevent Provinces access to Tidewater. Also, votes are concerning, when PEI and all other Eastern Provinces have constituencies much smaller and with half the population of constituencies out West!
This needs to change!
We all know this little idea of making Canadians buy Electric cars will fail. Here's the thing, the West cannot visit cottages 2 hours away, there are not enough lakes or cabins near to big cities. We need to travel 8-10 hours to get to the fishing or waterskiing or even swimming. There is no technology allowing you to charge a car in 10 minutes. You are going to have cranky Kids crying, Mothers and Fathers pulling their hair out waiting for hours to charge vehicles!
And Liberals allowed 20,000 Criminals into Canada with citizenship and visas! WITH were they thinking?
I worry that you're correct as it applies to forming a separate country. I'm not certain why statehood hasn't gained more traction. If separation is indeed in the cards that would be least risky option.
Danielle has provided a workable legal pathway to a referendum vote, and that is all.
I wish she actually was openly seeking independence for Alberta but she isn’t. She’s doing her best to reunify a broken Canada. I respect her efforts but sadly it won’t work.
Albertans aren’t even mad , we just don’t care anymore. Many many of us see the situation for what it is … completely hopeless and are working to secure a future for ourselves and our children. Danielle would be well advised not to get in the way.
I can't believe that Albertans just don't care anymore...that is NOT A True Albertan! What Pierre Trudeau did to AB hasn't sunk in NEP...Justin NOW Carney AB & SK could leave & Canada will suffer NO OIL to make the Gov't FAT. Or do you like the 1.7 TRILLION deficit this will keep rising unless Carney is STOPPED!!!
Don’t care as in “no longer angry, just indifferent”. The way people get after a really shitty relationship. There’s no love, no anger … just glib indifference.
You know before smith started pushing separation along with Preston Manning ( a christoFacist before that was the thing) the idea of separation in Alberta was supported by 6% of Alberta. Now that oil money and smith are promoting it it's rising. Nobody can say what Alberta will gain but golly they love to.imagime it would be better.
Um what is a faux economist. A journalist typing paid opinion ( fkn peasant) or someone who worked on economies full time for 30 some odd years with real consequences? Mindless empty slander John ..You can do better, and if not just stop you are embarrassing yourself.
Ok great so your comment is mindless slander..Point to something substantial that would indicate that he is not a qualified economist..Nope just your opinion of his book and your suggestion that the Weston family aren't profiteers..it's obvious you are not an economist. I don't really like slagging people but you just say things that are all puff and blame. An empty bag.
My congratulations to Premier Danielle Smith for the $8.5 billion surplus for year 2024, for the third consecutive years of exercising prudent spending.
As we all know, many Calgarian are irated when the healthcare was privatized by Danielle Smith. Many of the NDPs’ ghost employees were removed thus saving money for the people.
Many Albertans know that those against Danielle Smith are malcontent NDPs and their supporters because they lost their milking cows..
Danielle Smith is great. However, NDP and their supporter smelled a lot of money and they want her out so they can take her place and steal our money so they become richer. Liberals and NDP are of the same feather when it comes to taxpayers money, unfortunately.
Yes! I agree that temporarily Danielle is keeping the wolf at bay. But the only real solution is for Western Canada to separate itself from the leeches of the East.
Hate is a mental illness and since politicians and the media are well trained in phycological manipulation of feelings which peaks every election season (Read up on the science of propaganda this would make a great story for you Brian) coupled with the downfall of human health due to fake healthcare, drugs and toxic food, this is the end result.
I look at Premier Smith and see a shrewd business woman and a great leader so perhaps you can include the term jealous next time. Is woke a mental illness crafted by evil minds attempting to control?
Regarding ICE, approx. 250,000 Americans are killed each year by the medical doctor. 30,000 souls are killed each year in Canada, there is a more interesting story than a criminal passing.
I am in SW Ontario and have been telling people for awhile that Albertans are past fed up and they want out of a Liberal run declining country. Have good friends originally from Montreal who have been in Calgary for over 25 years. Bilingual and open minded - they would vote for separation along with a majority of Albertans. And no - they were not separatists in Quebec. Canada needs to wake up and fast. I would seriously consider a move to Alberta or Saskatchewan should they choose to get out from under the Liberal jackboot in Canada.
Carney is an absurd figure, even so he's deftly deceived Canadians so far. Just last week he was in Brussels telling the EU crowd of his plans for Canada: his continuing priorities for climate action with a 'new world order of carbon taxes, decarbonization goals, & net zero policies.' Surprise, surprise. He hasn't changed his core climate delusion, & his ruinous plans for Canada just keep getting worse. Plus he's a sudden convert to a new militarism, but in the context of subservience to the EU. That'll likely end up far worse than our soured relationship with the US. Carney & his loyal Boomers are truly wrecking Canada.
It’s nice for a change when politicians actually care what the people they represent think. I mean they are supposed to working for us. All Nenshi does is make rude comments and bitch, bitch, bitch. Plus spend us into oblivion. He does not get my respect.
Some are in shock at the thought that Smith is considering what MANY Albertans want. They find it terrible that we would breakup Canada. They haven’t studied enough to realize that it is the federal government in power that will change the boundaries of Canada by making Canada a mere part of a world government. All countries would be under the same social credit system, etc.
Yes, Alberta & Saskatchewan would be preserving the remaining vital capitalist core of Canada while the central & eastern segments are folded into a globalist post-national technocrat UN-overseen hyperstate. Real Canadians will move to Alberta & Saskatchewan as this process unfolds.
For all the whiners complaining about what she is doing, let me say, she is working and doing for Canada whether they realize it or not - not just flapping her lips about what she plans to do, unlike the Lieberals.
I hate to see Canada fall apart, but the way things are stacked against the west at this time it does seem that in the end the west will have no option but to separate, unless there is a radical change in Ottawa
You are as dumb as the AlberTans you mislead! She is run by IDU Harper and is stealing taxpayer dollars as fast as she can. She has received additional funding for healthcare and education and cut both budgets and kept the funding. She severely cut the forest firefighting budget and expects Ottawa to bail her out while she spews lies and garbage.
I am an Albertan and I am 100% supportive of Danielle as our leader and I also support separation from Canada if things don’t improve hugely. Why are Canadians so against prosperity? It’s so weird and sad.
Me too. So proud of Alberta and I live in PEI.

Canadians are for prosperity. Separation of Alberta would create a very poor country that the US would swallow in no time at all.

It’s over and we need to cut ties.
I understand it happens to us all...yes cutting ties is the right decision is my thought also.
Hard not to agree with Brian Lilley 90% of the time. I forget what the other 10% was about.
You know before smith started pushing separation along with Preston Manning ( a christoFacist before that was the thing) the idea of separation in Alberta was supported by 6% of Alberta. Now that oil money and smith are promoting it it's rising. Nobody can say what Alberta will gain but golly they love to.imagime it would be better.
Anything is better then what we have with the deceiving faux economist Carney
Um what is a faux economist. A journalist typing paid opinion ( fkn peasant) or someone who worked on economies full time for 30 some odd years with real consequences? Mindless empty slander John ..You can do better, and if not just stop you are embarrassing yourself.
Get a grip. Examine Carneys track record. Read his book. It speaks for his ideology. Net Zero. We are on are way. How’s your grocery bill ?

Many are indicating the same sentiments as yourself.

What are you talking about about? You've strung together a bunch of words, but the don't say anything.
Perhaps Stephen is communicating Carney style.
She would make a great Prime Minister

Go Danielle Go
The book that should be mandatory reading for every Canadian is “ Beyond Banksters “ by Joyce Nelson.
I hate to see Canada fall apart, but the way things are stacked against the west at this time it does seem that in the end the west will have no option but to separate, unless there is a radical change in Ottawa
You are as dumb as the AlberTans you mislead! She is run by IDU Harper and is stealing taxpayer dollars as fast as she can.

Obviously you don’t like the woman, but I doubt the accuracy of some of these generalized statements you have made
Danielle Smith isn’t even her real name. She is Russian, controlled by IDU Harper. Do some research.
She is the problem.
