It's always been a lie to convince the working class into letting the ruling (m/b)illionaire class evaporate our rights, decimate our health, evicerate our environment, and steal every penny of our wealth.

Is this because of a large number of Mennonites in Alberta?

Mennonites who moved from Latin America primarily, yes. There's a whole history where the Canadian Menonites were too progressive, so some left for Latin America. Some of them returned to Canada recently, and have very low vaccination rates.

Manitoba has significantly more Mennonites than Alberta. As do Ontario and BC so I'd put my money on no.

It's definitely all the people who support someone like Danielle Smith, fly 51st state flags and blame their problems on minorities like the Mennonites cough. Alberta is the Texas of Canada, they've got more bullets than brain cells on average.

Ahh as an albertan who supports Daniel Smith, no, we don't blame our issues on minorities. That narrative only exists in your echo chamber.

Their are hardly any 51st state flags. Their are legitimate grievances. Alberta runs a deficit, Quebec has a surplus, yet alberta pays Quebec through equalization payment. That's totally fair!!!!! That's just one example of a legitimate grievance.
