“by 2050, the gap between Quebec and Alberta in demographic weight could be only two percentage points (18.1% to 16.1%). This would give Alberta a seat count similar to that of Quebec.” Alberta’s destiny does not lie in the isolationist pursuit of regionalism but to become the economic engine of a continental energy superpower.

Population projections show Alberta’s political influence within Canada is set to grow significantly between now and 2050. spencerfernando.com/2026/02/02/pop…

I love that even in their wildest fantasies about themselves they cannot conceive of themselves as anything but the subject of a larger, more powerful state. There is no independent Alberta, there is only a vassal disgruntled with their liege.

America is about to have a new neighbour with oil, cattle, and common sense. 🤠🤝 An Independent Alberta. The Texas of the North.

@JonFraserTF Network effects of connecting Canada’s two largest agglomerations is a net positive for the country writ large. Don’t know why that’s so hard for you to understand.

@varkyros @FistedFoucault Of course it doesn’t do anything but it does suggest that pro-Federalism sentiment is highly underestimated

Independence is impossible while landlocked in such a manner, specifically in that location. Think of the transit costs to ship your oil. Becoming a 51st state is funny, because you're going from having a 1/10th say to 1/51 of one.

🚨BREAKING: The 177,000 signature threshold has now been passed, officially clearing the requirement for an Alberta independence referendum on October 19th. This is a historic moment for Alberta and signature collection is still continuing.

@CultySmother It was surprising that he has chosen to side with build-nothing greenbelters instead of just saying he will only support a privately funded project or something.

I don't think Poilievre's position on HSR is surprising or interesting--he's never liked spending public money. He's ideologically flexible on some issues, but when it comes to tax and spending, he's much more doctrinaire.

@ArminiusRex97 @FortySacks @FistedFoucault States don’t have the same level of autonomy over natural resource development as Canadian provinces. Ceding resource rights to Washington DC just in time for a Newsom/AOC ticket to come into power would be devastating.

@FortySacks @FistedFoucault Bro, Canada is less than 50% Canadian, and Alberta is already landlocked…what are you even talking about. Even the shittiness of being 51st state is better than being a part of the suicidal dumpster fire of Canada

1. Toronto usually has more cranes up than the top 10 US cities put together. 2. Toronto doesn't permit many of these through zoning. It has Euclidean zoning, but it permits towers through discretionary variances, in exchange for which it extracts cash and contributions.

Over 800,000 residential units are currently proposed or approved across the City of Toronto, with the highest concentration of height and density planned in the Downtown Core. A look at the city's future skyline:

@RomanFisher__ Sorry, but even as a westerner who won’t directly benefit from Alto: the optics of saying “we are the party of not building ambitious things” is terrible.

@HTXwhiteguy @Peter_Nimitz If we voted to leave it doesn’t mean anything other than compelling the federal government to enter into negotiations with the province. What those negations entail is entirely up in the air. e.g. the fed govt could just appease several demands and “reconfederate” the province.

@Peter_Nimitz I think even if they voted to leave it requires unanimous ratification from all the first nations without he province which basically makes it impossible

@EricDLombardi Reading about the Canada that decided to create indigenous nuclear reactors in CANDU, or build one of the world’s first fully automated Metro systems in the Vancouver is truly radicalizing. We have drifted so very far from that elite culture of optimism and positive ambition.

One of the most frustrating things about Canada as a “young person” is living in a country that once achieved world leading feats of engineering and infrastructure but now can barely fathom what others had decades ago.

This is quite literally something I’d expect from the Greens. Not good at all.
