      What if we just let the separatists go down to the United States, and leave Alberta alone?

      I’m trying to determine if he was saying the *pipeline* should come to the US, but the article doesn’t make that clear

      Its exhausting waking up every day for the last year and having alberta separation news flood my feeds on all social media accounts. We have proven over and over the majority of us want to stay in Canada. I am so tired of hearing about this ridiculous movement, wondering if ill have to uproot my family so we don’t end up becoming apart of america. I wish our premier would stand up for us but we all know she wants alberta to become apart of the states.

      Alberta separatism has lately been just an American psy-op combined with stupid rural grievance politics. This isn’t surprising in the slightest.

      Im sure Danielle Smith is more than willing to go to Mar-A-Lago to bend the knee and kiss the ring of Donald Trump again.

      .I’m old enough to remember when the same people freaked out over Ford’s ad, citing foreign interference in domestic affairs. Looks like it’s their turn now because our PM was more popular than their supreme leader at Davos.

      There is already big American money flowing to separatist campaigns in Canada, including Alberta. 

      The USA will seek to destabilize Canada in any way possible; once they don’t get what they want from CUSMA negotiations, their manipulation & influence will become overt rather than secret. 

      Separation campaigns in Quèbec and Alberta will be obvious points of leverage to distract, divide, and weaken the country. 

      In today’s modern world order, where middle powers must fend for themselves in the face of belligerent and expansionist Great Powers, Canada can no longer afford to accommodate openly seditious campaigns which seek to break the country apart. These are a luxury nations can no longer afford, if they want to survive.

      20% of Albertans want to become American. I say we pick the simple option and just buy them one-way bus tickets to Montana to solve this problem.

      The entire Canada needs to speak up against this. This is foreign interference and we should be outraged not only people in Alberta. More of the 80% of Albertans do not want this. Help them to have their voice heard.
      We are ONE Canada. Shut down all this speak as soon as you hear it. Get involved!

      Do you really think the US has more interest in the people vs the resources? I don’t believe they would allow Alberta to become a state, it would be annexing a territory.

      And so it begins; all out in plain view.

      Loyal Albertans have one job to do. Are they going to sit idly by and wait for a minority government in Ottawa to come to the rescue, or are they going to get off their backsides and finally do something about the traitors in their midst?

      > The question they are asking is whether Alberta should be independent — not if it should join the United States.

      Because they aren’t that stupid. They’re well aware that putting becoming part of the US on the ballot would poll even worse than straight up independence does. They’d also need to have answers as to what relationship Alberta would have with the US. Would it be another state, a territory, something else. What would the laws be, and so many more.

      While independence poses many hard to answer questions, a union with the US poses even more, given how aware we all are of our differences.

      The business case for a pipeline isn’t good, or else private investors would have built it. But at this point, even though I’m not in favour of it, maybe we should just build it and remove a talking point for the U.S. conservatives.
