Alberta separatism rising because Canada is 'broken' and 'can't be fixed': Bruce Pardy 🍁 "They're looking for a different solution, and that solution is to leave. And I agree with them about the necessity for doing that," said law professor Bruce Pardy. On last night's episode of The Ezra...

Professor Bruce Pardy on Alberta Separatism: "...Yes, the objective here is to disrupt the country and if that risks ending the country well then so be it. But there seems to be no other, no other way to actually get serious re-consideration of what the country has become."

An independent Alberta should not include Canada's current First Nations treaties, argues law professor Bruce Pardy. "The point of independence is to repudiate the existing constitutional order — all of it,” he tells Ezra Levant 🍁🚛.

A Constitution that Flips the Default Today, governments can act unless a right in the Charter stops them. Bruce Pardy argues Alberta should reverse that logic: a constitution that grants government only the powers explicitly listed and leaves everything else with the people. In that model, a Charter becomes largely unnecessary because individual freedom is the baseline, not an exception. Could Alberta be the first to adopt this? This is one of many first-principles ideas in Bruce’s full interview. Watch and decide. It's revolutionary. Bruce Pardy

Alberta’s future isn’t in today’s Canada. A critical mass of Albertans could push for independence, maybe even U.S. statehood, shaking Confederation to its core. The path ahead is unclear, but the first step is clear. Kudos to realCTZN and Bruce Pardy. #AlbertaIndependence

Another strong conversation in Red Deer was with a supporter who put his finger on something important: for a lot of Albertans, this is no longer mainly about oil or even economics. It is about freedom, rights, and whether Alberta still has a future inside a country that no longer feels like the one people grew up loving. He says it directly: this is not the Canada he fell in love with, and more and more people feel the same way. What makes this exchange significant is that it shows how the movement is maturing. It starts with the visible size of the line, the honking, and the energy on the street, but very quickly the conversation goes deeper. He argues that if people really understood what Ottawa is doing, they would be all over this. That is a revealing point because it frames Alberta independence not as some fringe impulse, but as a conclusion people arrive at once they stop assuming Canada still operates on the values it claims to stand for. We then get into one of the deepest issues of all: rights. He makes the argument that Canadians are taught to think they have rights, but in practice many of those rights function more like privileges that can be overridden. I respond by pointing to the first clause of the Charter and the broader constitutional problem that Canadians often speak as if they have American-style guarantees when they do not. That matters because once people conclude their freedoms are conditional, they stop thinking only in economic terms and start thinking civilizationally. What kind of country do we actually live in, and what kind of country do we want to build? He also makes a crucial point when he says this has gone way beyond oil and pipelines. He brings up unfair representation, the treatment of Alberta, and the feeling that the system has never really been fair to this province, only now it is being said openly and to our faces. That is one of the reasons the independence argument is broadening. It is no longer just resource frustration. It is about political dignity, democratic legitimacy, and whether Alberta is treated as a partner or as a region to be used. And the ending says a lot too. He brings it back to the kids, to affordability, to family formation, and to the people who are hurting the most. That is the deeper moral force behind this movement. For many supporters, Alberta independence is not mainly about anger. It is about creating a future where the next generation can still afford a home, raise a family, and live with real freedom and real opportunity.

Could Alberta actually leave? Keith Wilson joins Glenn Beck Americans with an interest in their northern neighbours are curiously looking on, wondering about the possibility of Alberta breaking away from the rest of Canada to create a new province. Glenn Beck raised the subject with Keith Wilson during the prominent Alberta independence activist and constitutional lawyer's appearance on Blaze Media's The Glenn Beck Program. “Is there enough support in Alberta to actually get that done,” Beck asked, in addition to whether Wilson actually thought “Canada would allow” the province, “the Texas of Canada,” to leave Confederation. Wilson pointed to the unique legal framework in Canada, which allows a province the ability to exit through a referendum. “If a clear majority of voters within a province vote on a clear question for independence, that triggers two routes to independence,” the constitutional law expert said. “One is the parties have to enter into good faith negotiations, meaning Alberta needs to go into a meeting room with the federal government and the other provinces and say, 'alright, we've got national parks here; we've got military bases in Alberta. We'll pay you, the federal government, a certain amount of money for those bases and national parks,'” Wilson explained. “The other path is if the parties don't enter into good faith negotiations,” he continued, noting that was “something we're very concerned about here in Alberta.” This route could see a “unilateral declaration of independence,” something that “relies on international recognition,” he cautioned. “If the United States and other countries are prepared to recognize Alberta independence, it creates a clear pathway,” Wilson told the American host. Wilson and Beck also discussed two other federal policies that are contentious in Alberta — the Liberal government's gun grab and its continued expansion of the Medical Assistance in Dying program. Independence campaigners assert they've collected enough signatures to trigger the citizen-led referendum, with a vote expected to take place in fall 2026.

“We’ve had enough”: Alberta separatists rally, calling independence the only way forward An energetic crowd, the largest of its kind for the cause, gathered in front of Alberta’s Legislature yesterday, declaring October 25 as Alberta Independence Day. "My grandparents fought for Canada, and they'd be proud of what I'm standing for now, because it's not Canada anymore — it's not the same country we grew up in," one man told me when asked why he believes separation is the only way forward. "The more educated people get on what's going on — that we are not a bunch of rednecks trying to break up the country, that this is a very sophisticated, nuanced issue — the more converts we'll get," attested men running a Charlie Kirk–style ‘change our minds’ initiative to debate why independence is best for all Albertans. His friend assessed that the issue is "woven into the confederation" and not just tied to the Liberal Party ruling Ottawa. "Even if Conservatives get in, some of these policies, like equalization, didn't get any better under Stephen Harper — a Conservative government doesn't always address Alberta's interests on a federal level," he said. "Just what Ottawa has done to this country and how it treats its citizens like subjects — the government is supposed to be employed by us, but they've turned as if they're lords and tyrants over us, expecting our undying allegiance," one demonstrator argued.

Emily Thornberry, "If a large and powerful country abducts the leader of another and then tries to intimidate the smaller country, in order to gain access to its resources" "Doesn't Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper agree that this should be called out?" "A break of international law" "It is not for the country breaking the law to say whether or not it has broken the law" "It is is for the West to surely stand up and call it for what it is" Yvette Cooper replies like the coward she is

This Filipino Albertan supports Alberta independence because he recognizes what is happening in Canada. He came here in 1994. He loved Canada. He raised the Canadian flag proudly. But now he says this is not the same country anymore. Government overreach. Fear of speaking openly. Rising costs. Politicians who take more and give less back to the people. Many immigrants came to Canada because they wanted freedom, opportunity, and honest government. When they start warning us that Canada is beginning to look like the places they left, we should listen. Alberta independence is about recognizing the direction Canada is going and choosing a better future before it is too late. I support Alberta independence.

One of the most moving moments in Red Deer was talking to a kindly older woman standing on a busy street, waving an Alberta flag alongside a crowd of hundreds, and explaining exactly why she was there. She said she was doing it for her kids and her grandkids. She wants them to live free, be able to buy a house, get educated, and have a good life. That is what made the moment so powerful. This was not politics as a hobby. This was a grandmother looking at the direction of the country and deciding that if she wants a better future for the next generation, she has to step out into public and stand for it. That is deeply symbolic. Because when you see an older woman on the side of a major road waving a flag for Alberta independence, you are not looking at extremism. You are looking at concern, love, memory, and hope. You are looking at someone who has lived long enough to compare the Canada she remembers with the Canada we have now, and who no longer believes the current path will deliver a decent life for her family. She says very plainly that Canada has betrayed Alberta, that Ottawa wants Alberta’s money and resources but will not help Alberta prosper, and that this is why she now believes Alberta has to take care of itself. That matters because it shows what is driving this movement at a human level. A lot of people outside Alberta still try to frame support for independence as anger or protest alone. But conversations like this show something deeper. Many people are being motivated by love of family and a desire to leave their children and grandchildren something better than debt, housing insecurity, declining affordability, and a political system that seems to take Alberta for granted. She says her kids may never buy a home the way things are now, and that some cannot even afford food. That is not abstract ideology. That is a moral alarm bell. She also makes the case many Albertans now make instinctively: if Alberta kept more of its own money, managed its own affairs, and stopped endlessly subsidizing a system that does not serve it, families here would have a real chance to get ahead again. More opportunity. Less tax burden. More control. More ability to build a future in our own province. Whether people agree with every detail or not, the emotional truth behind it is clear: she sees independence not as destruction, but as rescue. And maybe that is the most significant thing about the whole exchange. For her, Alberta independence is not mainly about grievance. It is about hope. Hope that her grandkids might still buy a home. Hope that they might live free. Hope that Alberta might finally start working for Albertans again. When a grandmother is standing on the roadside saying that out loud, people should pay attention.

"They're surprised to find out how much more Alberta contributes in transfer payments than they receive back in government services."

Mamdani on Arch/Ballroom/Club Rose Garden: My message would be that this is not what government has to be. This is not the only vision for what it looks like to have politics in this country—that is so divorced from the needs and wants of everyday people. And what we are looking to show in New York City is an alternative to what has led so many to become disenchanted with the political process. We want to show that not only can government work, but it must, and that at its core, our responsibility is to working people—to ensure that we’re doing everything to make their lives easier. That has to be what drives our actions, and for too long, government has felt more like a distraction than a fulfillment of the needs of the people who’ve been left behind by the politics of today.

I was at a massive Pro Independence rally in Rocky Mountain House and there was a small counter protest (7 people). One of the Forever Canada guys said Alberta independence supporters should not be using the poppy. Even if a veteran supports Alberta independence, thats wrong in his eyes! If you're a veteran tell me what you think. I’m not in the military, so I’m not going to pretend I speak for them, but I have a strong suspicion many veterans would reject the idea that support for Alberta independence cancels out their right to wear a poppy. He also appealed to his grandfather fighting in the war for Canada. I treated that seriously, because I do respect that. But then I asked the obvious question: what did his grandfather actually fight for? That should have been the easiest answer in the world. He could have said freedom of speech, freedom of religion, basic liberty, self-government, or the rights that make a country worth defending. But the only real answer he could give was the freedom to survive here". That answer stuck with me, because it reveals something deeper than I think he meant to reveal. Too many pro-Canada arguments today sound like that. Not a vision of freedom. Not a belief in sovereignty. Not even a confident defence of rights. Just survival. That is the irony. The people accusing Alberta independence supporters of being dangerous often sound like they have given up on the very idea of living freely and building something better. They do not speak like people with a dream. They speak like people hanging on. Then, after all that, he pushed the claim that the UCP are “banning books.” That is incredibly disingenuous. The issue is sexually explicit material in school libraries. The facts are easy to find, and reducing that debate to “book banning” is a dishonest slogan designed to inflame people instead of inform them. And yes, I think defending that kind of material in schools is shameful. If that is the hill some pro-Canada activists want to die on, they should at least be honest about what they are defending. This whole exchange says a lot. Alberta independence supporters are constantly asked to explain what we are for, while Canada’s defenders too often fall back on emotional slogans, weak smears, and a vision of life that amounts to little more than survival. For us Albertans, this movement is about Freedom! We want a society that reflects our values and protects our rights and we have the will do make that happen. Please sign the petition!

Kate Harrison "I think a lot of Canadians would be surprised by, again, the depth of murders and killings of Iranian people at the heads of the Iranian regime and that this is a response to the plea of the Iranian people for a change and for democracy in that country." "And I think that, and I'm not putting this at the feet of CBC, but the news media ecosystem, in my view, in Canada... did not share those stories in a way that I think is sufficient to help again rationalize what we're seeing now." Katie Simpson "And I think there has been some analysis that I have seen is that perhaps Canada and other allies might be more comfortable supporting the US Effort in this moment because of what happened in January, because of the mass murder of protesters in the streets at the hands of the Iranian regime." Harrison "So this is an opportunity for Canada to look inward and really assess whether or not we're doing all we can to look at energy security for diplomacy's sake and getting our own exports to market."
