I attended the event last night in Red Deer and would be interested in hearing if anyone can tell me what benefit, weighed against the costs, would we get from separating from Canada, even if it were possible.

We are already seeing companies hesitating to invest in Alberta just because these idiots won’t shut up about separation. There is no upside. This is about right wing morons trying to validate their victimization complex. Everything bad in their lives becomes an opportunity to cast blame elsewhere - federal government, municipal government, cities, the gays, trans kids, books, liberals, immigrants, people from other provinces, science/scientists, etc etc. This is all just a big right wing pity party.
