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...

In Sylvan Lake I spoke with an Iraqi Christian family who came to Canada in 2006 about what immigrants owe the country that welcomed them. Their answer was blunt: come here for a better life, obey Canadian law, work hard, care for your family and leave the conflicts of the old country behind. They told me newcomers should not come to Canada and then try to force the same politics, divisions or customs on everyone else. Canada gave their children safety and a future, and they believe immigrants have a duty to protect that. Then I told them I support Alberta independence. Their response surprised me: they support it too, and they have lawn signs in support of independence up! Support for Alberta independence is not limited to people whose families have lived here for generations. Immigrants who came here legally, worked hard and integrated can also see that Alberta is losing control over its culture, immigration and future. This is a powerful conversation. Listen to the end. Let me know what you think. Watch the full video on YouTube:

I had an honest conversation with an Indian immigrant in Sylvan Lake about littering, integration, foreign conflicts, government benefits, trucking and Alberta independence. He did not avoid the difficult questions. He agreed that people who come to Canada should respect Canadian culture, obey the law and leave conflicts from their home countries behind. He said plainly: “We should try to become Canadian first.” We also discussed fraudulent trucking schools and unqualified drivers. He acknowledged that corruption and shortcuts exist, but added: many Indian truck drivers are hardworking people supporting their families, and they should not all be blamed for the actions of a minority. Towards the end he surprised me and said he supports Alberta independence! This is why I keep having these conversations. Support for Alberta independence is not limited to one race, religion or background. Many immigrants came here because they value hard work, personal responsibility, family and freedom. Those are Albertan values. An independent Alberta could control immigration, enforce merit-based entry, deport non-citizens who commit serious crimes and protect the culture that made people want to come here in the first place.

I think most people who are in favour of Alberta independence are actually proud Canadians. But they are not proud of what Canada has become. We want independence to preserve what Canada used to be. And we will do what it takes. If that means leaving what Canada is we will.

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.

During the trucker convoy, many of us still believed in Canada. We had Canadian flags on our vehicles. Canadian flags on our lawns. We were proud Canadians who believed that flag still represented freedom, unity, and the right to peacefully disagree. Then we watched how Canada treated its own people. That moment changed a lot of Albertans. It forced us to ask a hard question: What country are we trying to save? For Albertans, independence began with heartbreak and betrayal. It began with realizing that the Canada we loved no longer loved us back. That is why I support Alberta independence.

Alberta is the last stand for Canada. I’m not Albertan so personally, I would rather they stay in Canada because I understand the detrimental effects that this will have on the country. That being said, it might need to be done. Not just for Alberta - but for Canada. We might have to disassemble this whole thing so we can build something new. Nothing is working here. Our constitution, our judicial system, our parliamentary system….it’s time for a change. Maybe Alberta leaving is exactly what Canada needs to wake up.

I was having a friendly conversation with a Canadian citizen who immigrated from Chile 28 years ago. He does not support Alberta independence. He said he wants Canada to stay together. Then a local Red Deer man walked up, assumed we were both pro-independence, and started swearing at us. When I told him we were just having a friendly conversation, the Chilean Canadian asked him a simple question: Why do you think these people want to separate? His answer? “I don’t know.” Then he just kept swearing. That moment says a lot. A 28-year Canadian immigrant was willing to ask the question. He could see that something has changed. He had real concerns about mass immigration, integration, and how the system has changed since he came here. But the “Forever Canada” local didn’t want to ask anything. He didn’t want to understand. He didn’t want to listen. He just wanted to defend the idea of Canada he still has in his head. When I asked him about mass immigration, he brushed it off and said Canada is the best place to live. Apparently millions of other people agree, because they are all showing up here. That is the problem. Too many people are attached to what Canada used to be, while refusing to look honestly at what Canada is becoming. Full video: An Immigrant Told Me What Canadians Are Afraid to Say

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.

Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation Chief Sheldon Sunshine who initiated the First Nations lawsuit against Alberta separatist groups, the Alberta government and Canada (and won) gave an update in Maskwacis today. “Alberta cannot do this (separation referendum) unilaterally. Doing so would be a breach of treaty.” He says what the Alberta government is doing is enabling and allowing the separatists. “We also named Canada (in the lawsuit), for doing nothing.” Even though Canada is the Treaty partner with First Nations, it has done nothing so far.

At the Forever Canada rally, I asked a man why he supports staying in Canada. He started by talking ranting about something he heard about in the bible that he doesn't like. Apparently that has something to do about why Alberta should stay in Canada. I asked him if I should be allowed to have my religious beliefs as he was mocking me. Then I asked about Bill C-9, online speech laws, metadata collection, and the push toward government ID to access the internet under the excuse of protecting children. His response was basically: I trust the government and everything is ok... That is the problem. Too many Forever Canada supporters are attached to a sentimental idea of Canada, while blindly accepting censorship, surveillance, control, and federal intrusion. “Canada forever” means “just surrender forever.” Is this is really the future you want?

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.

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!
