you are clueless in addition to being dead wrong
i suppose you would be just happy and compliant to have politicians a thousand kilometers away threaten your provinces economic engine
oh wait, that is exactly what Donald Trump is doing
Are you happy and compliant?
no
you are bitter, angry and want to see the last of him
Smith, Pee Pee and Harper are all IDU.
They are not popular.

The federal government invested billions into the tar sands, invested billions into a LNG terminal in BC, invested billions into an oil terminal in BC, invested billions into the pipelines to bring nat gas and oil to the terminals in BC, in 2018 when oil prices hit $40 the federal government gave handouts to Alberta.

Alberta is such an ungrateful province.

Alberta is such an ungrateful province.
The oil$gas industry still gets $30 billion a year in subsidies from Canada.

DO YOU AGREE THAT THE PROVINCE OF ALBERTA SHALL BECOME A SOVEREIGN COUNTRY AND CEASE TO BE A PROVINCE OF CANADA? YES NO

When confronted by the discombobulated monstrosity of a 258 word long SOV-ASS referendum question, Jacques Parizeau is reported to have wryly commented that it might have been simpler
and more honest to ask Quebecers if they wished to be independent.
Danielle Smith should know that her referundum, if she goes ahead with the APP version above, will likely go down in blazing defeat, with resultant egg on her face.
The Can Cons brought their big guns out of retirement, Manning and Harper, to throw their weight behind PP. Danielle even flew to Mar a Lago to play footsie with the Don. They failed.
What should have been a Con majority, after having led by more than 20 points for the longest of time, PP ended up handing victory to Carney. He still persists with his odious pugnacity and conflates Carney with Trudeau. It is time to wake up and recognize that the election is over but that the country is still facing an existential threat and other enormous challenges. So Preston, pl stop already with your silly prognostication that Mark Carney will be the last Prime Minister of Canada.
If Danielle stops pretending that Alberta is Houston North and instead comes to the negotiating table with constructive ideas, she might find in Carney a receptive listener.
The answer is tat the majority in Alberta still want to be a Province within Canada. So the answer is No.
