Albertans, face it: your vote doesn’t shape your future. Elections are decided in Ontario and Quebec, and by the time the results hit Manitoba’s border, it’s over. Policy flows from central Canada, not your polling station. Your kids’ future? You’ve got zero control unless something changes soon.

How could any Albertan, NOT be a separatist?

Dive into the critical issues shaping economic policy, from President-elect Trump’s sweeping tariff proposals to the challenges Texas faces under rising government spending. Now is the time for bold reforms to protect taxpayers and ensure economic freedom thrives.

Exactly West of ThunderBay, your vote doesn’t count

Correct. In ‘74 election when blackout of results was lifted in Alberta I watched in horror with my parents that Trudeau had a majority over Stanfield. Decided before one vote in Alberta. ☹️

There is no future for our children or grandchildren here in Canada….and girls arnt safe anymore in schools or elsewhere

T’was ever thus. And deliberately structured to be so……

Albertans do shape our own future but not as a partner in Canada. We’ll vote for secession.

Our first elected separatist. 👏

I think Carney pissed off Quebec [and likely New Brunswick too] because of his lousy french, the NFLD fishermen ate not happy with him, and I live in Ontario and we are fed up with Liberals.[I always voted Conservative] It will be the Chinese community in T.O. that is an issue.

Well I'm seeing a lot of chatter here in Quebec about going for Poillievre which surprised me. I thought they'd go Bloc instead. I think the polls saying we are going for Carney are bullshit, maybe some English in Quebec (not myself) because they always have.

Doesn’t mean it doesn’t matter … but i don’t think anything will change until Alberta leaves

WOW 😮 This is so gloomy Let’s hope the East comes through this time with the right choice

@TomMarazzo That is correct I work the last still federal election in a small rural town of Central Alberta. We weren’t even done counting our ballots and they called it in Ontario.

I’m totally done with the Confederation DONE I don’t even want to vote in the federal election 42 years of incompetence from every single administration that held power Every one

Bloc are the only adults in Canada.

This is why the west needs independence asap

It's just like taxation without representation. Our votes don't count or matter and yet we are forced to pay taxes and send transfer payments. Nice.

Make Alberta independent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s why western canada has to separate. The first past the post voting system never allows us to participate . We could put any Saskatchewan farmer in charge of western canada and we would be fine.

Any country with regions of smaller populations than other regions will have to balance the interests fairly. It seems Canada has been ignoring this reality.

Then our equalization payments should stay west of the Manitoba border, too. How does that sound Ontario and Quebec? Fair enough? I’d say so.

The crown and all its grifters along with the red chamber all need to be sent back to the king with a no return stamp. Canada becomes a republic like the USA and we then can be on equal footing from coast to coast to coast. Until that or the west separates nothing can change for those west of the Manitoba/Ontario boarder.

Elections need to be held on the 28th and not counted until the 29th when all the voting is done and no media on the 28th

They just don't seem to get it. Im a proud albertan. Im ashamed to be canadian.

We need to move on, we need to enshrine who we are in Alberta. It is time!

I knew this years ago when WCC's Doug Christie packed the Jubilee Auditorium on Dec 8, 1980. We learned nothing, so here we are fighting the same battle.

Western Independence referendum is our only way out and fwd. Let's git'er done.

Parliament has been paralysed since September of 2024; yet, somehow everyone conveniently forgets this and is still willing to vote for the NDP and Liberals who caused these problems in the first place.

Not true.....a close race in Ontario/Quebec is decided ENTIRELY by all of you Manitoba and westward.......without your votes we don't have a prayer of ousting these evil Liberals.....
