Not going to happen. Plus, I've read that most of those that do want to separate don't want join the US.
Even IF the people of Alberta vote in favour of leaving Canada it still has to be approved by Parliament, and that is not happening at this time with the current seat counts for each party.
I have lived in Calgary, Alberta for over 20 years. I don't know a single person who would want to leave Canada. I also know that Alberta would not stand a chance alone. We DEPEND on the federal government for funding and other Provinces for goods. We're land locked and have next to no manufacturing.
That's the fun part, once the US separates you from Canada, you don't get a choice about whether you want to join the US anymore, because your collapsing economy leaves you no choice. Divide and conquer, literally.
There's no unilateral separation from Canada without reconciling all of the constitutionality protected indigenous land claims, and they've all indicated they have no interest. Also the Constitution would need to be renegotiated, and this would require all provinces. This will stretch any practical timeline for secession out indefinitely.
The US interests have no bearing on this, unless they plan on invading.
Yup, they just did a full on genocide on their indigenous groups. I guess I wouldn't rule out them to do it again.
Hopefully those that would vote to separate know this ...
IF on the off chance it happens there will be a mass exodus. I'd be moving to British Columbia in a heart beat.
Look at Brexit. Many people look no further than what's on their Facebook feeds, making it quite easy to sway a referendum that fucks over a whole populace.
It amazes me that after seeing that complete shitshow that was Brexit that provincial separatists are like “Yea, this is exactly what we want and need to work towards”. Bottom of the cesspool bottom feeders the lot of them.
Je dirige tout autant mes critiques acerbes vers les séparatistes québécois.
You mean the second part of Canada that will get slurped up by the empire? East is actually the safe bet.
Fully agree, we will be looking into moving the day after the vote results are announced
Votes aren't looking like they're going to mean anything in the US anymore. Don't be too confident they're going to respect any vote in Alberta.
I believe behind the scenes, it's got the smell of Trump.
