  1. Like every other article on this topic there is never a suggestion on actions the feds can take to alleviate the frustrations a lot of Albertans are feeling about their place in the federation. A lot of those that would vote yes to separate don’t actually want to separate they just want to push the feds into giving Alberta a better deal in the federation.

    If this is the way it’s going to continuously be handled it’s not going to be hard for the separatists to gain more support in the lead up to a referendum. Those „I don’t want to actually separate but am voting yes to make a point“ votes could be the ones to push us over the threshold just like Brexit.

  2. Important point: here in Alberta, most of the separatists are Maple MAGA. Some actually openly state that they don’t want an independent Alberta, but an Alberta annexed into the USA. Others imply it or say it quietly when pushed about how an independent Alberta country could ever be better off as an independent country.

    In other words, the ~17% of Albertans who fully want to separate is probably a realistic guess at the size of Maple MAGA here in Alberta – these are the same people who are openly cheering on ICE and muse about how better Alberta would be if they came here.
