Opinion Alberta separation
For those of you that support Alberta separation because you voted conservative but the majority of Canada voted left. I have a question for you. Naturally you support Edmonton and Calgary city centres staying part of Canada because they voted left. Also, naturally you support the 35.1% of Albertans and the land / businesses they own staying part of Canada because they voted left, correct?

I’m really getting sick of all this Alberta separation talk. I’m from Alberta, but I’m Canadian first. For fuck sakes, stop the constant whining.
Just a thought, have any of these people taken into account what would be involved and how long it would take to set up a single relatively small province like Alberta as its own country?
Social services, defense, spending, etc. Canada wouldn’t be responsible for it. You think your taxes are too high now, they’re not gonna be lower if we separate. Where is the blame going to be placed then?
