@JeffreyRWRath @retiredgeo0416 When Alberta is sovereign, the lineup to get in will double wages and property values.
Who would vacate a new prosperous country?
English

Doctors, dentists, lawyers, police, fire, EMS, nurses, teachers, tradespeople, ranchers, farmers, oilfield workers, students and other Albertans of every background and of every ethnicity are all signing the petition!
This isn’t the Independence movement of 1980.
This is happening.

Joe Rogan: Pierre has "full-blown AIDS - Alberta Independence Denial Syndrome"
Innisfail door knockers: 2/3 of doors support independence
Zero federal income tax = 33-38% take-home pay increase
Why wouldn't you vote for that?

@mario4thenorth … and they want to tax home equity? How about the average Canadian claims value lost on their taxes.

🚨 LOOK AT THIS CHART
Money supply (M2) growth since 1968:
🇨🇦 Canada: 10,784%
🇩🇪 Germany: 6,273%
🇨🇳 China: 5,844%
🇺🇸 United States: 4,155%
🇯🇵 Japan: 3,811%
Canada printed more money than every major economy on earth.
Every other country started levelling off.
Canada’s line goes VERTICAL.
This is why your dollar is worthless.
This is why homes cost $1 million.
This is why groceries doubled.
This is why food bank visits hit 2.2 million.
This is why your savings buy less every single year.
It’s not “global inflation.”
It’s a printing press that never stopped.
IT’S THE CANADIAN PESO.
The government devalued YOUR MONEY to fund spending it couldn’t afford.

@Martyupnorth Hey Marty. There’s been no audit on elections yet so how do we get an honest count?
English

@KeeperofCrypto1 As it turns out, buying the media to fabricate narratives and approval, Is much cheaper than creating positive outcomes and actual approval.
English

@prairiecentrist anyone with common sense is a separatist
-no income tax
-true constitutional rights
-expansion to social programs
-control over resources once and for all
-controlled immigration
only a fool would oppose

@elie_mcn If you asked a writer to create a script that would enrich the powerful and enrage the people they wouldn’t have thought about half the 💩 that’s gone down, and that’s what we know about.All the while the media lapdogs salivate for their handouts by ignoring reality. What a year

@p4purrip0p This is a drama. Didn’t happen. Besides, Canada did the same thing to its own citizens.

@slk55again If that’s not enough to believe Canada is in managed decline. What is?
English

“The situation in Quebec is a perfect example of "be careful what you wish for." In 2022, the province passed a law called Bill 21 that completely banned oil and gas exploration. They basically told energy companies to pack up and leave, even after those companies spent years and millions of dollars finding resources.
Don't feel sorry for Quebec when their gas prices skyrocket or they run out of fuel. They had the resources right under their feet and chose to kill the industry instead of developing it. Now, while the rest of the country deals with normal inflation, Quebec is paying a massive premium because they refuse to produce their own energy.
It is absolutely true that Quebec imports 100% of its oil. Because they have zero commercial production of their own, every drop of fuel for their cars and heat for their homes has to be brought in from the outside—mostly through pipes that run through the U.S. or on massive tankers coming up the St. Lawrence.
They are sitting on world-class reserves in the Utica Shale—estimated at up to 186 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. That is enough to power the entire province for over 800 years. On top of that, there are billions of barrels of oil in the ground that they’ve now made it illegal to touch. They are sitting on a gold mine but choose to pay other people to provide what they already have.
The Big Shutdown: The government didn't just stop new projects; they effectively seized existing ones. Companies like Questerre Energy and Utica Resources had their licenses revoked and were told to plug their wells and walk away.
The Lawsuits: This wasn't a clean break. Utica Resources has sued the province for a staggering $18 billion, calling it a "disguised expropriation." Questerre Energy is also in a major legal battle, and both are fighting to get their day in the Supreme Court.
The Payoff: The province offered about $100 million in compensation to the entire industry. When you're talking about billions in potential energy, that's like offering someone a nickel for their car and then telling them they still have to pay for the tow truck.
The Result: Today, Quebec has some of the highest gas prices in Canada, with people in Montreal paying way over the national average. They are stuck importing 100% of their oil while the companies they kicked out are still fighting them in court.
It’s one thing to want a green future, but it’s another to shut down your own energy supply before you have a backup plan. If they end up with empty tanks and huge bills, they really have nobody to blame but themselves.”

@optiongandalf @JosephFordCotto It’s a good idea. When Canada starts taxing home equity, you can expect a few million of us.
English

@JosephFordCotto Why don’t they just make it simple . Allow any Canadian who loves the USA the opportunity to move there and get easy citizenship, USA gains all the hard working ones , and all the woke ones can stay behind and watch the social system collapse. Then USA can pick it up for Pennies

@JonFromAlberta Sorry folks. At the inception of our nation we do disservice to ourselves eternally by making distinctions about people and having different rules based on ethnicity will destroy the ship before it launches.
Hypocrisy can not be justified.
English

There’s a strange contradiction in how Alberta independence is criticized.
When people are criticizing Canada, we often hear that treaties were signed under duress, that Canada is a colonial project, and that its authority over the land is illegitimate.
But the moment Alberta talks about independence, the argument suddenly changes. Now the treaties are described as sacred, permanently binding, and something that must prevent Alberta from ever leaving Canada.
Those arguments pull in opposite directions.
Either the treaties are illegitimate colonial impositions, or they are binding agreements that define relationships between governments.
They can’t logically be both at the same time.
Yet despite completely different premises, the political conclusion never changes:
Alberta must remain in Canada.
That contradiction is worth thinking about — especially now.
With the Alberta independence petition likely collecting well over the required signatures, a referendum is looking increasingly likely. That means Alberta may soon face one of the most important political conversations in its history.
And that conversation must include Indigenous nations in Alberta.
Three questions are worth discussing:
1️⃣ Could independence reset the relationship?
Treaties were originally signed nation-to-nation with the Crown. If Alberta became independent, could that create an opportunity to renegotiate how those agreements are implemented — with Indigenous nations having a stronger role in shaping the relationship going forward?
2️⃣ Could decisions made closer to home work better than federal bureaucracy?
Right now many Indigenous programs are controlled by federal departments in Ottawa. Would governance closer to the communities affected allow faster solutions for housing, infrastructure, and economic development?
3️⃣ Could Alberta’s resource economy create stronger Indigenous partnerships?
Many Indigenous communities in Alberta are already equity partners in major energy and infrastructure projects. If Alberta had full control of its economic policy, could that expand Indigenous ownership, revenue sharing, and long-term prosperity?
But there’s an even bigger possibility.
If Alberta ever chooses independence, it would also be a chance to rethink the system itself.
Canada’s current framework was built in a very different era, and many people — Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike — feel it has failed to deliver fairness, accountability, or lasting prosperity for everyone.
A constitutional reset could be an opportunity to sit down together and ask a bigger question:
What would a truly fair system look like if we designed it today?
One built on real partnership.
One that respects Indigenous self-determination.
One that promotes economic opportunity.
One that protects freedom and prosperity for everyone who calls Alberta home.
If a referendum happens, Indigenous nations shouldn’t just be spectators in that discussion.
They should be partners in shaping what Alberta’s future looks like.

An independent Alberta should not include Canada's current First Nations treaties, argues law professor @PardyBruce.
"The point of independence is to repudiate the existing constitutional order — all of it,” he tells @EzraLevant.

@VioletSpring33 @RebelNewsOnline I’m done with the whole representation thing. It’s 2026 not 1756. Government is the parasite.
Taking power where that have no right. Should we raise our pay? Raise everyone’s taxes? Print money? Give it away? Neuter ethics laws? Gut infrastructure? Stop investment?
WTF?

@RebelNewsOnline Another reason for #AlbertaIndependence LET'S GO! Because we deserve to choose our representation!

Double standards for separatism? Elections Canada blocks Alberta First Party registration
Elections Canada registers Quebec sovereignty parties without blinking. But when Albertans try to organize around sovereignty, the microscope comes out.
In Canada, you can start a political party dedicated to separating Quebec from the country. No problem.
You can start fringe climate parties. Also, no problem.
But try to start a sovereignty party in Alberta? Suddenly, Elections Canada becomes a stickler for technicalities.
The Chief Electoral Officer, Stéphane Perrault, refused to register the Alberta First Party — a sovereignty party — even though they submitted 370 members.
The legal requirement? 250.
They were over the threshold.
But Elections Canada decided to “verify” the membership list. Fine. Except they did it by mailing confirmation letters… during a Canada Post strike.
You can’t make this up.
Only 129 confirmations came back. Why? Because a bunch of rural Albertans never even received the letters.
Instead of acknowledging the obvious logistical problem, Elections Canada disqualified the party.
Now here’s where it gets interesting.
Internal briefing notes admit that other parties have been registered without meeting the 250-member requirement. Stop Climate Change in 2019. The United Party in 2023. Elections Canada literally wrote that in “rare circumstances,” parties have become eligible without meeting the minimum membership.
So let me get this straight.
If you’re a climate party? Flexibility.
If you’re some other fringe party? Flexibility.
But if you’re an Alberta sovereignty party? Suddenly, we’re splitting hairs over mail confirmations during a postal strike?
Barry Knodel, the Alberta First leader, says he felt they were being given a hard time. Hard to argue with that.
And here’s the bigger issue: Elections Canada registers Quebec sovereignty parties without blinking. Quebec can have parties explicitly devoted to advancing Quebec’s interests — or even separation — and that’s treated as normal democratic expression.
But when Albertans try to organize around sovereignty, the microscope comes out.
Why is that?
If federal institutions are neutral, they should be neutral both ways.
Either the technical rules are rigid and universally enforced, or there’s reasonable discretion applied evenly.
What we appear to have here is discretion applied selectively, and that’s the problem.
You cannot have a democracy where the referee seems to lean one direction depending on who’s on the ice.
Because once people lose trust in the neutrality of Elections Canada, the damage is far bigger than one party’s registration status.
Now the question is: will anyone demand consistent standards? Or are sovereignty movements only acceptable when they’re east of the Ottawa River?
That’s not a technical issue.
That’s a credibility issue.
And credibility, once lost, is very hard to mail back in.

@newt50 @RebelNewsOnline Hey Sally, it’s not your nation. You have no ownership in it.
From the sounds of things in Canada only FN could own but that’s only until the Neanderthal descendants organize. You can keep Canada. It’s only a colonial power trip and the people aren’t part of the club.

@RebelNewsOnline MOVE TO THE USA THEN! You can’t take part of our nation with you!
