Carney warned Alberta about separation. Michelle Rempel Garner fired back with the part Ottawa keeps pretending not to understand. Alberta’s frustration did not appear out of nowhere. Ten years of Liberal policy stymied Alberta energy projects, cost jobs, weakened prosperity, and damaged Canada’s energy security. Now Carney wants to...

Carney was asked about Alberta separation. His warning to Albertans? A “very dangerous bluff.” Then he compared it to Brexit. Interesting. The Bloc said Alberta should decide Alberta’s question. Carney says separation is a dangerous bluff and Ottawa is reviewing the question under the Clarity Act. That contrast tells you everything. Albertans are not angry because Ottawa listens too much. They are angry because Ottawa lectures, judges, reviews, delays, blocks, taxes, and then acts shocked when the country starts cracking. Then Carney calls the anger a bluff. That should go well.

🚨 ALBERTA AWAKENS — THE WEST REMEMBERS WHO IT IS Something historic is stirring on the Canadian plains. Not protest. Not complaint. But resolve. For decades, Alberta has powered Canada while being ruled by a distant political class in Ottawa that neither understands nor respects it. The deal was simple: Alberta would produce, Ottawa would decide. And year after year, that deal bled the province dry. Now, Alberta is asking the question no one was supposed to ask: Why do we stay? Alberta is not poor. Alberta is not dependent. Alberta is not fragile. It is one of the most resource-rich regions in the Western world. • Vast oil and gas reserves • Critical minerals and rare earths • Timber, agriculture, and energy infrastructure • A highly skilled workforce • A culture built on production, not bureaucracy If Alberta were a country, it would rank among the wealthiest per capita on Earth. And unlike Ottawa, Alberta actually creates wealth. For years, that wealth has been siphoned off through equalization payments, federal regulation, and policies written for urban centres thousands of miles away — policies that punish energy, restrict land use, and criminalise the very industries that made the nation viable. Albertans have watched their rights curtailed. Their livelihoods targeted. Their values dismissed as backward. And still, they paid the bills. Until now. A new generation of leaders and citizens are openly challenging Ottawa’s grip — not with anger, but with clarity. They are pointing out an obvious truth: Alberta does not need permission to succeed. It already feeds, powers, and funds the country. Independence is no longer unthinkable. It is being discussed seriously, methodically, and confidently. Because Alberta has something Ottawa cannot manufacture: • Economic leverage • Cultural cohesion • Energy sovereignty • And the will to stand alone History shows that nations are not born from chaos — they are born when productive regions refuse to be ruled by systems that drain them. Alberta is reaching that moment. Not in haste. Not in hatred. But in strength. This is not a threat. It is a reckoning. And if Alberta does choose its own path, the world may soon witness something rare in modern politics: A wealthy, capable, freedom-minded people stepping out from under a collapsing centre — not to burn bridges, but to finally build their own future. The West is remembering who it is. And Ottawa can feel it. Jason Coursey

Carney went to New York and told Wall Street Canada is moving at “record speed” as an energy superpower. Then he bragged about a “potential pipeline” carrying Alberta oil to Asia. Potential. As in: not built. Not approved. No steel in the ground. No committed builder. After years of Liberal policy helping choke pipelines, punish Alberta, scare off capital, and make Canadian energy politically toxic, Carney is now selling investors the fantasy that Ottawa suddenly knows how to build. Canada has the oil. Canada has the LNG. Canada has the uranium. Canada has the workers. What Canada does not have is a federal government with credibility left on energy. Energy superpower? On paper, maybe.

Quebec gets it. Bloc Québécois House Leader Christine Normandin was asked about Alberta separation and the referendum question. The reporter kept pressing. She refused the bait. Her answer was simple: She is not Albertan. Ottawa is not Albertan. Albertans decide. She even warned against “Papa Ottawa” talking down to people with disdain. For once, I agree with the Bloc. You do not have to support Alberta separation to understand the principle. If Albertans want to ask the question, it is Alberta’s question. Not Ottawa’s. Not federal politicians’. Not some managed national-unity script from people who helped create the anger in the first place.

I was in Rocky Mountain House recently for a massive pro Alberta independence rally. Hundreds of people were waving Alberta flags and driving around town, and I found a small group of about seven pro-Canada counter protesters and decided to engage them. One man challenged me. He said that if Alberta independence loses, I should give up. I told him plainly that yes, if we lose, I will respect the will of the voters. Then I asked him the same question back. If Alberta wins, will you accept it? He reluctantly said yes, but the moment I pressed him on what percentage he would accept, he would not even engage with the argument. He would not clearly accept a majority. That tells you a lot. For too many on the pro-Canada side, this is not really about democracy. It is about imposing their will on Albertans who disagree with them, then using shame and fear to pressure us into silence. The second part of his argument was that the independence movement is hurting investment in Alberta. My answer was that Ottawa already did that and we have nothing to loose. For years, federal policy has blocked pipelines, restricted market access, and damaged confidence in Alberta’s future. Then, when Albertans finally start pushing back, we are told that we are the problem. He even claimed there is no tanker ban. That is factually false. Canada’s Oil Tanker Moratorium Act does restrict large crude oil and persistent-oil tankers from stopping, loading, or unloading at ports on BC’s north coast. The details matter, but the broader point stands: Ottawa has put real barriers in the way of Alberta getting its resources to market. His response was basically, if that is true, then why is Alberta still so rich and prosperous? My answer was simple: because we work hard, we have a lot going for us, and it takes a lot to sink us. But that does not prove Canada is working. It proves Alberta is strong enough to keep carrying a country that keeps dragging us down. Canada feels more and more like a sinking ship, and Alberta is the last thing holding it up. That is why I support independence. Please sign the petition. Go to to find a signing location near you.

Pierre Poilievre on Alberta separation and Alberta's treatment by Ottawa: "I'm against separation...the message to the government in Ottawa is you can't tell Alberta to pay up shut up. Albertans want to be a part of united Canada." Well balanced comments but I think people are discounting that too Albertans have heard it before and they don't want to waste any more time. Thoughts?

IS ALBERTA GOING TO LEAVE CANADA? OTTAWA - wants to add $10.00 a barrel to the cost of oil in Alberta, so no one will want to invest in Alberta. He says Alberta needs to leave Canada. When President Trump says reciprocal tariffs - he means reciprocal tariffs and if Alberta leaves Canada the tariffs will be zero for Alberta and zero for the USA. They will be wide open for American banks and financial institutions. AND - Alberta won't have Ottawa doing everything they can to shut down oil production for the benefit of Communist China.

🚨 OTTAWA AND EDMONTON ARE NOW TRYING TO STOP ALBERTA SEPARATION The Alberta Premier is now openly admitting that independence support is too big to ignore — while simultaneously trying to pull people back toward Ottawa. Listen carefully to what she said: • “35% or more” of ALL Albertans could vote for independence • Around “55%” of UCP supporters support separation • She and Mark Carney are now working together to “bring those numbers down” That last line matters. For years Albertans were told separatism was fringe. Now the Premier herself admits the movement is powerful enough that Ottawa and Edmonton must actively work to stop it growing further. And notice the shift: Suddenly Carney is being framed as “different” from Trudeau. Suddenly there’s talk of “confidence building.” Suddenly promises are being made again. Because the political establishment knows the ground is moving beneath them. The real issue now isn’t whether Alberta frustration exists. It’s whether enough Albertans still believe Canada can be fixed at all.

🚨 Premier Danielle Smith just dropped truth on the Alberta separation fight. She’s making it crystal clear: she and her entire UCP caucus support Alberta remaining in Canada. But she’s not backing down from democracy. The court ruling that threw out the separatist petition? She calls it “incorrect in law and undemocratic.” Her government is appealing it immediately. This is leadership that actually respects the will of Albertans instead of Ottawa’s gag order. While Carney and the Liberals keep pushing their anti-Alberta agenda, Danielle Smith is drawing a line: Canada yes — but not at the cost of Alberta’s voice. Albertans are done being treated like second-class citizens in their own country. #DanielleSmith #AlbertaStrong #StandUpForAlberta #CDNPoli #AlbertaSeparation #FreedomToChoose

The Conservative Party has an Alberta problem — a big one It's not because Alberta has abandoned the Conservatives, but because Alberta's Conservative voters might be outgrowing Ottawa, and we have the poll numbers to prove it. A new @ActForAlberta poll shows something remarkable: 66% of Conservative Party of Canada supporters in Alberta support independence; 51% strongly support it. Another 15% somewhat support it. That is not a fringe. That is not a handful of angry keyboard warriors. That is the federal Conservatives' Western engine room looking at Confederation and saying: maybe this deal is done. And that explains something important about the way Pierre Poilievre and the federal Conservatives talk about Alberta independence. They oppose it, of course. They have to. The Conservative Party of Canada cannot win without Alberta. Take Alberta out of Confederation and the CPC loses its safest seats, its donor base, its volunteer army, and its moral claim to represent Western Canada. Without Alberta, there may never be another Conservative government in Ottawa again. So yes, they are against independence. But notice what they are not doing. They are not going full Liberal-style Project Fear. They are not screaming that Albertans are stupid, racist, reckless, dangerous separatists who need to be shamed back into line. Why? Because they can read a poll. If two-thirds of your own Alberta supporters back independence, you cannot sneer at them without blowing up your own base. You cannot smear them as extremists when they are your riding presidents, your donors, your door-knockers, your sign crews, your voters. So, the CPC is trapped. Ottawa needs Alberta to stay. But Alberta conservatives are increasingly asking: what exactly are we staying for?

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.

Howard Anglin "While the separatists don't have answers to most of the key questions about separation, I think there are a lot of people in central Canada and Ottawa that need to step up and give some answers to the questions Alberta has been asking." "The attitude from some in central Canada, the barely concealed contempt and sometimes the open open contempt for the Alberta economy and the way of life in Alberta is something that wouldn't be tolerated with any other province." "At the end of the day, the vast majority of Albertans love Alberta and they love Canada. I'm not sure a lot of people in Ottawa can say the same thing." Howard Anglin

BREAKING:🚨 ALBERTA HAS HAD ENOUGH — AND THE CRACKS IN CANADA ARE NOW VISIBLE 🚨 “For far too long we’ve been held hostage by the Ottawa elites — and it’s time for that relationship to end.” That wasn’t rhetoric. That was a declaration. Cameron Davies, leader of the Republican Party of Alberta, has said out loud what millions of Albertans have been thinking for years: This is no longer a federation. It’s an abusive arrangement. Alberta produces. Ottawa consumes. Oil. Timber. Energy. Revenue. And in return? • Punitive federal control • Rights stripped under emergency powers • Firearms confiscation • Policies written by coastal elites who don’t live Alberta’s reality • Taxation without fair representation Alberta is the engine of Canada — and it’s being treated like a colony. Davies put it plainly: “We pay the bills and we’re treated like second-class citizens.” Two votes in Alberta carrying the same weight as one elsewhere. Federal programs funded by Alberta’s resources. Cultural values overridden by a government that no longer represents them. And now the line has been crossed. This isn’t just about economics. It’s about identity. Faith. Family. Freedom. While Ottawa embraces euthanasia over healthcare… While veterans are asked if they’ve “considered dying”… While basic self-defence is criminalised… Alberta is saying: No more. This is why independence is no longer fringe. It’s organised. It’s political. And it’s gaining momentum. Davies laid out the formula: Two ingredients. That’s it. • The will of the people • International recognition Albertans will vote. And when they do, they will demand recognition as a sovereign republic. And here’s the part Ottawa fears most: If Alberta goes — Saskatchewan follows. If both go — Canada collapses as we know it. This isn’t noise. This is tectonic movement. Empires don’t fall all at once. They fracture — starting with the producers. Alberta isn’t asking anymore. It’s preparing to leave. Carl Higbie Cameron Davies

Mark Carney has now made it obvious: Ottawa will use the Clarity Act as a gatekeeping tool against Alberta independence. Quebec responded to the Clarity Act with Bill 99, a law asserting Quebec’s right to self-determination, defending the authority of its National Assembly, and recognizing that a referendum is decided by a majority of valid votes cast. Alberta needs its own Bill 99. The future of Alberta should be decided by Albertans, not by the House of Commons.

🚨 THIS JUST SHOOK CANADA TO ITS CORE U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just said the quiet part OUT LOUD. On camera. Alberta — the energy engine of Canada — is being strangled by Ottawa. Blocked pipelines. Crushed industry. Ignored voters. And now Washington is openly acknowledging what millions of Albertans already feel: They don’t belong in a system that punishes prosperity. Bessent didn’t mince words: “Alberta is a natural partner for the United States.” That’s extraordinary. Not a pundit. Not a commentator. The U.S. Treasury Secretary. Albertans are independent. Resource-rich. Energy-driven. And fed up with federal control. Talk of a referendum is no longer fringe. It’s entering the mainstream. When people are denied the right to build, trade, and prosper — sovereignty becomes inevitable. Ottawa should be paying very close attention. Because when even America starts saying “they’d fit better with us”… The cracks are no longer theoretical. They’re visible.

"If this house continues to insult, abuse, and neglect Alberta, if it refuses to treat our people and industries with the respect that they've earned, then the future of this country is not guaranteed." Bow River MP David Bexte says Alberta separatism is no longer a fringe idea.

Most Canadians have no idea Alberta owns its land, its oil, and pays billions more into Ottawa than it gets back. Crown land? Provincial. Oil royalties? Provincial. Healthcare? Paid for by Albertans. We send over $30 billion more to Ottawa each year than we receive. Imagine what Alberta could build if we kept that money here—schools, hospitals, pipelines, prosperity. It’s not about grievance. It’s about self-respect and economic independence. The facts are clear. The future is ours to build.

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.
