Albertans will get a vote on Alberta independence — bet on it, baby!
There will be a vote by Albertans on Alberta independence.
Everyone who has their ear to the ground agrees. They say you can bet the farm on it.
And just the fact there is an almost-certain vote on Alberta independence looming on the horizon will be a message heard across the country and right into the office of Prime Minister Mark Carney.
Smith setting the magic number at 177,000 hasn’t even been passed by the legislature yet, the federal election just wrapped up this week and the Alberta Prosperity Project, as of Thursday afternoon, already has 126,000 people pledging to back a vote.
Reportedly, there are other lists of individuals also wanting a vote.
Sources say the total number pledging their support for an independence vote could hit 200,000 in the next few days and we’re not even at the official Day 1 of gathering signatures and the door-knocking campaign to score more support is still to come.
Not only are more people pledging to support a referendum on Alberta independence, many other sorts are most nervous.
