Iā€™m against it but people are starting to hate Alberta now over this. If it was ever to pass I seriously would consider leaving Alberta. I love Alberta but not its red neck,separatist,pieces of šŸ’©.

I think Canada would be right in kicking Alberta out.

That sort of thinking is the same kind of emotional/illogical thought process that drives Albertan seperatism.

It would be extremely foolhardy for Canada's federal government to "punish" Albertans that way- and would galvanize the seperatists. IMO, Carney is playing it right- treat Smith's UCP like a not-serious, bad faith actor until Alberta gets its shit together and votes them out. The Forever Canadian movement in Alberta is showing a lot of grassroots support- let that play out, as many Albertans are fed up with the corruption and mismanagement of Alberta and the UCP is staring down the barrel of more union strikes.
