@Sharon75571311 @KirkLubimov Sharon. I respect your experience. But I think he was referring more to brexit. Comparisons to Quebec and Brexit don’t fit. Alberta’s extraordinary wealth is shackled and exploited by Ottawa. Alberta free of Ottawa would thrive economically and culturally. A dream, not a bluff.

@Miview1Dan @KirkLubimov I think he was referring to what happened in Quebec after the threat of separation caused youth & business to leave which killed their economy. I know, I left Quebec at 20 years old & went to Alberta. I should have gone to Toronto because they benefitted the most from separation

Mark Carney puts Alberta on notice: "In these separation issues, it is often advanced that vote for this and it's a free option, vote for this and we will strengthen your our hand in a future negotiation. That is a very dangerous bluff. That is a very dangerous bluff." 🤔

@JasminLaine_ What a display of arrogance! Disrespects reporter. Gives her a stilted answer to her sincere queries on Carbon pricing. His most arrogance remark, “Alberta separatism is a dangerous bluff.” The “dangerous bluff” is Carney calling secessionists desires in AB “A dangerous bluff.”

PM Carney cuts off Globe and Mail reporter mid-sentence as she presses him on whether Alberta’s carbon contracts for difference are essentially a taxpayer-funded blank cheque, and whether the deal hands the province a permanent loophole to dodge climate commitments.

@ABDanielleSmith Danielle, I respect you as premier, but Carney is just a shrewder form of Trudeau. He has cleverly stacked this deck—a Veto to BC, Veto to indigenous people, uncompetitive C tax and C capture. Still a tanker ban. THIS PIPELINE IS NOT GOING TO BE BUILT. Then you must lead us out!

I know the last decade under the Trudeau-NDP was difficult and Albertans have every right to be frustrated. But thanks to the leadership of Albertans, the tide is finally turning in our favour. The vast majority of Trudeau’s ‘9 bad laws’ have been scrapped or reformed. Investment has begun flowing back into energy, tech, and agriculture, and we are creating more jobs than the rest of the country combined. Now is not the time to give up hope. Now is the time to double down and help Canada reach its incredible potential. With Alberta leading the way, we can turn Canada into one of the most strong and prosperous economies in the world. On October 19, I will be voting for Alberta to remain in Canada. I hope you will join me in doing so.

@cbcwatcher @gemstercasey1 Those who speak with such authority about the “disaster for Alberta”to separate? Calculate the enormous economic benefits for Alberta, realistically including costs. Consider her cultural, social and economic well being. Alberta is far better off as a sovereign entity.

Boom! John Ibbitson "Well, they are an angry people and they have every reason to be angry." "From the time the provinces were founded, when Albertans, Saskatchewan, were not given the natural resources powers that other provinces had, to the latest regulation from Ottawa limiting the development of the oil sands for environmental or other reasons, Albertans have been put upon by a central Canadian elite, looks at them as something of a colony." "And the result of that indifference and condescension from central Canada is this referendum on a referendum. We're responsible for that here in the center." @JohnIbbitson

@yegwave Mr. Mayor Knack of Edmonton— you speak of divisiveness? Your adoption and approach to insidious IN FILL projects has created enormous animosity. Three story condos going up in quiet neighbourhoods? No other mayor does this. Who is going to buy in Edmonton. Shame on you, Sir!

Edmonton Mayor Andrew Knack has spoken out against Alberta’s plan for a referendum on holding a binding referendum about separating from Canada.

@sarobertson_ Danielle Smith is loved in Alberta. She fights to get what Albertans tell her they want. Isn’t that how democracy is supposed to work? @ABDanielleSmith. @althiaraj @acoyne

Christy Clark: "If this should succeed, Danielle Smith will go down as probably the worst premier Canada has ever had. If it fails, she'll go down as someone who got lucky and got out of there with their skin intact and certainly still isn't qualified to be the premier of a province."

@AtIssueCBC @althiaraj @RosieBarton @acoyne @ChantalHbert Good Morning Murrefh ☀️ I ponder your advice for such healing intervention. I think the whole country needs therapy. Especially after listening to the uninformed vitriol and hatred of these four people against a province just wanting to be left alone. 🤷🏼‍♂️wishing you a nice day.❤️

@AtIssueCBC @althiaraj @RosieBarton @acoyne @ChantalHbert Hoping all fellow Albertans got to hear this quartet of the Laurentian brainwashed. The arrogance, belittling of our premier, and insulting Albertans, is exactly why the decent people of Alberta wants a clear separation from these crude people. Even more repugnant to be Canadian.

@mark_slapinski Hillbillies? Mr. Slapjnski? Grifters? Your arrogance is usurped only by your ignorance of the issues. You are a vile disgrace to to even the lowest form of decency and informed journalism.

The Alberta Separation movement has NOTHING to do with democracy. It's literally a bunch of hillbillies, grifters, and Russian assets trying to divide our country. The irony is that it is pushing normal Canadians closer together, and further from Conservatives.

@nenshi Mr. Nenshi, if Centurion group broke the law, that’s not cool. But you Sir with your, “maybe,” “what if” it seems,” perhaps,” —all reminiscent of a little piggy digging for dirt! Show some decency.

Alberta’s NDP Caucus has obtained video evidence that appears to show that a senior member of the United Conservative Party (UCP) party executive and a member of the UCP Caucus staff, people that are in the Premier’s inner circle, attended the April 16 online meeting of the Centurion Project. This meeting provided training to volunteers on how to use the separatists’ project database that is at the centre of this data breach of three million Albertans’ electoral data. The Alberta NDP Caucus obtained a recording of the Centurion Project’s April 16 online meeting, attended by 80 individuals. The attendee list and a video recording of the call identify that a ‘Rob Smith’ and an ‘Arundeep Sandhu’ were in attendance. The President of the UCP is named Rob Smith and the UCP Caucus Director of Stakeholder Relations is named Arundeep Sandhu. Alberta’s New Democrats have passed this recording on to the RCMP as they continue their investigation. This obtained video also shows Centurion Project members demonstrating how to use a database to search for personal information of Albertans by searching for the name and address of former Alberta Premier Jason Kenney. Jason Kenney’s personal information was shared on screen with all meeting attendees. This video appears to show the database that was built using the unauthorized electors list that was the subject of an injunction issued by the Court of King’s Bench on April 30, 2026. Premier Smith must immediately confirm whether Rob Smith and Arundeep Sandhu identified in the video are the same individuals that are associated with the UCP party and caucus. If these were the same UCP associates, the Premier must also explain: -Why were senior UCP officials attending the meeting? Were they directed to attend? -How she can claim, as recent as yesterday, that she only learned of this data breach from police statements on April 29-30, published almost two weeks after this meeting took place? -Why was it not reported or disclosed by any UCP or any government official to the RCMP and Elections Alberta that the Centurion Project appears to have unauthorized access to the electors list? -What actions, if any, she has taken to protect the privacy of Albertans? Albertans deserve answers and transparency from Premier Smith and this UCP government, now.

@ABDanielleSmith Congratulations Danielle Smith, nice work. Now you need some assertive action on the MOU 😡. We think you have been played. Best of luck.

Yesterday, the White House approved the advancement of multiple pipeline projects carrying Alberta oil to the United States. Expanding pipeline capacity to the U.S. is something I’ve been advocating from this U.S. Administration since their last election. It has paid off! This is great news for Alberta and Canada. It has the potential to unlock hundreds of billions in energy investment for our province and country. We hope the federal government moves this fast when it comes to our pipeline project submission in June. Let’s get these pipelines built! Read the full U.S. decision here: whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

@nenshi Give it up Mr. Nenshi, how many times do you need to hear it? Sorry, but you’re getting a little redundant don’t you think? Is that how you waste Albertan’s time in the Legislative Assembly?

I love Alberta. I'm proud to be Canadian. I oppose separatism. Three simple sentences that Danielle Smith just can't seem to say out loud.

@JeffreyRWRath I would like to hear a factual, cordial, but assertive debate between both sides—points and counter points for as long as it takes-no time limit. Eventually a mature and intelligent audience will decide. So far all we get is each sides rhetoric. 🤷🏼‍♂️We deserve better. #climate

President Trump just declared an end to the Canadian economy’s integrationwith the US Economy and Canada’s ability to compete with the American economy. Carney either abandons Canada’s net zero policies or faces economic devastation. This is exponentially bigger than tariffs. President Trump has just declared an end to the fiction of Canadian competitiveness. Will Carney continue to let Canada lay in the tub bleeding from the wrists or will he act to save Canada? #AlbertaIndependence

@AnonDiabs @Garnet_2203 Diabs, sorry you seemed to miss the point entirely🤷🏼‍♂️. No problem—wish you well anyway my friend.

@Miview1Dan @Garnet_2203 Please pack your bags and leave already. I am sure a tax free utopia is waiting for you in the US, WHO CURRENTLY HAVE A $40 TRILLION DEBT!!!

Alberta separatists I’m genuinely asking. Tell me specifically how Alberta leaving Canada improves your life. Break it down: money, healthcare, pensions, borders, trade. Not vibes. Not slogans. Not Trudeau. If this is a serious plan, the details should be easy.

@mark_slapinski Hey Mark, how about Quebec separatists? Is it because you have no problem with Quebec separating from Canada? Your hypocrisy knows no bounds my friend. Wish you well.

My name is Mark Slapinski. Lately I've been mending bridges with the Left. We can put politics aside and agree that Maple MAGA, Alberta Separatists, Putin Lovers, and Anti-trans Bigots have no place in Canadian politics.

Infill will cause chaos in your quiet Edmonton neighbourhood. Let your counsellor know the effect of this bad law: ph: 780-496-8110 #ErinRutherford #JonMorgan #KerenTang #AaronPaquette #AshleySalvador #ReedClarke #AnneStevenson #MichaelJanz #MikeElliott #ThuParmar #JoAnneWright

@X_Facelesssone The question needs a bit of work. By god do you mean only the Christian God? If you mean a great spirit, a cosmic consciousness, intelligent design, cosmic moral forces, or a higher power, that’s different, and I think a sense of cosmic purpose is needed for a meaningful life.
