UCP stole 30% of your Pension Apr. 1, 2020 @Jason34693089

WOW! Today Smith tried to perpetuate her spin on what duty to consult means and how it applies... And Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew was having NONE of it! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

STATEMENT ON PROVINCIAL ADDRESS The Premier of Alberta intervened to lower the threshold for getting a separatist question on the ballot. She then intervened to eliminate a review requiring the question be constitutional. She intervenes again tonight after yet another court has told the separatists to slow down and follow the law. The premier can wrap these actions in the words of democracy, but she is willfully ignoring the will of the vast majority of Albertans who want no part of this separatist conversation. The simple reality, a reality you would not find in her speech, is this: she has pushed along a question because a group has threatened to bring down her and her party if she does not. Her internal political problems have become our national crisis. The Premier asserts her patriotism. I will take her at her word, but I will remind her a patriot puts country ahead of party. A leader steers the agenda, rather than having it blindly dictated to them. An Albertan finds ways to do what’s right, not justifications for doing what’s wrong. This baffling, referendum-on-a-referendum question will do nothing to settle anything. It adds another layer of confusion. It will divide. It will distract. It will damage. I hope her government will consider how to step back from this madness before the damage to our province’s social fabric and economy is too great. Corey Hogan MP Calgary Confederation

I am born and raised in Alberta, and live there now. I'll be voting against any form of separation. From now until the vote in October, I will use my online reach to campaign against the separatists and ensure this discussion of separation ends for good in 2026.

@Lohughes @CraigBaird 💯 - my 13 year old granddaughter could have crafted a much, much better question.

Separatists keep insisting the movement is surging. The numbers say otherwise. The highest level of support any major polling firm has recorded was 36.5% from Mainstreet, and even that combined Alberta with other western provinces. When Alberta is measured on its own, the highest support ever recorded is 31%. That means more than two thirds of Albertans do not support separation. Research Co. The intensity gap is even worse for separatists. One Abacus poll found that strong opposition to separation outnumbered strong support by more than four to one, 56% to 13%. That is not a province on the verge of breaking away. That is a loud minority running into a quiet, decisive majority. Even among UCP voters, support for independence fails to reach 50%. Among federal Conservative voters, more oppose separation than support it. Abacus Data The movement cannot even fully unite its own political side. People love comparing Alberta to Quebec, but the comparison falls apart fast. Quebec spent decades building cultural, linguistic, political, and institutional foundations before the 1995 referendum nearly succeeded. Alberta’s separatist movement today is polling at levels Quebec saw in the early 1970s, before its movement had truly matured. And while the rhetoric gets louder, attachment to Canada among Albertans has actually increased. CBC The harder separatists push, the more Albertans seem to reject the idea. None of this means Alberta lacks legitimate grievances. Pipelines, equalization, and resource jurisdiction are real debates worth having. But dismantling the country is not a serious solution. It is political rage! And most Albertans appear to understand that.

Danielle Smith clearly does not represent the interests of the majority of Albertans. Smith is aware that only about 15–16% of Albertans are committed to independence regardless of the economic costs. Yet she insists on having a referendum question on separation. That’s 16% of Albertans wanting to force 84% of Albertans into a provincial separation that they don’t want. Yet Smith is strongly motivated to represent Separatists. With Danielle Smith’s consistent dishonesty, with the help that she received from David Parker to become the leader of the UCP, with her desire to not respect judicial decisions and with not expressing any negative vocalization about having party members that openly support separatist ideology, it is very difficult to believe that Smith would honestly share the results of a referendum. Nor is it believable that she would respect the results of this referendum. It’s time for Albertans to stand against Danielle Smith and against the UCP.

There’s a federal petition right now E7340, and every Canadian should be paying attention and signing. This isn’t partisan. This is about foreign interference. It calls to: • Refer Alberta’s Justice Statutes Amendment Act to the Supreme Court • Investigate reported meetings between the Alberta Prosperity Project and U.S. officials And let’s be honest we’ve already seen unofficial trips to Washington. Why are Canadian political actors meeting U.S. officials while pushing Alberta separation? That’s deeply concerning. We’ve spent years warning about foreign interference in elections, what about interference in breaking up Canada itself? Foreign influence in our sovereignty is a red line. Google: Petition E7340 sign it. If you care about transparency and protecting Canada sign it. Because if foreign interests are shaping our future, that’s not politics. That’s a national threat.

🌞Good morning Canada. This one's a doozy. 🚨 ANATOMY OF A DISINFORMATION CHAIN A lawyer named Jeffrey Rath claims an anonymous "Stelco employee" told him Carney threatened to invoke the Emergencies Act against Alberta independence. No corroboration. Wrong plant entirely - Carney was at Dofasco, not Stelco. The "corroborating" video? Someone relaying workplace gossip. His own words: "I don't know how true that is." The on-screen text says Kelowna, BC. He claims to be in Hamilton. Here's where the raw material came from. Carney has publicly used "emergency powers" language - but in a February 2025 Kelowna event, in the context of accelerating major economic projects against U.S. trade pressure. Some clips also contrast his English and French remarks about pushing projects through provinces. None of it mentions Alberta independence. That's the mechanism: real words, real speech, real footage - stripped of context and fed into the separatist rumour mill until "emergency powers to build pipelines" becomes "emergency powers to crush Alberta." David Parker received this laundered chain and escalated to suggesting the US military should intervene against a Canadian Prime Minister. Anonymous source. Wrong location. Triple hearsay. Contradictory geography. Real quote - fabricated meaning. The claim doesn't have to be true. It just has to travel. 📌 Named actors: Jeffrey Rath. David Parker. One stripped quote. One invitation for annexation. You grab a coffee. I'll pour myself a glass of wine 🍷 #cdnpoli #AlbertaIndependence #Disinformation

Separatist leader, Mitch Sylvestre, wants the Court to issue an injunction and stop his signature collection. This way, he’ll never need to prove that he got 177,000 signatures (I doubt he did) and Danielle Smith will give him a referendum anyhow. #ableg cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

Elections Alberta is concerned that separatists are funded by USA. Alberta Government lawyer argues that there is no evidence of that, yet separatists refuse to file financial disclosure. Why is Alberta Governement defending separatists in court? #ableg theglobeandmail.com/canada/alberta…

When Redford was confronted with her entitlement, Smith hit her hard. Redford took responsibility & apologized. (Didn’t pay the money back tho) Smith has been confronted with Tylenot™️, flights, hotels, lavish gifts & more. Her response? This juxtaposition is WILD!

@ABDanielleSmith is lying to you.

Don’t be fooled by the pearl clutching outrage over floor crossing. When Parliament actually had the chance to ban it, the Conservative majority voted the bill down. This included @PierrePoilievre under @stephenharper’s majority Goverment. Bill C-306 (Feb 8, 2012): If an MP changed political parties, they would have been required to resign their seat and run in a by-election before joining another party. Turns out the people screaming the loudest about the rule today are the same ones who protected it when they had the power to change it. parl.ca/legisinfo/en/b…

BREAKING!!! We need to talk about this. Cause it looks like one of the leaders of the Alberta separatism movement has a judgement against him for misappropriating... OVER A MILLION DOLLARS from his family who were suffering FROM DEMENTIA? /1 #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

@Archaeologuy @intell59 Trudeau added $150B of national debt in 10 years WITH a pandemic and a recession. Smith added $138B of provincial debt in 3 years of record oil prices and profits. And with a new pipeline coming online. The Albertans who still bitch about Trudeau are the dummest shits alive.

AISH is being replaced with ADAP. A program that cuts benefits, tightens rules, and reduces appeal rights. Disabled Albertans are being pushed into deeper poverty. 📢 Full breakdown + action steps before Sept 12 here ⬇️ zacharyweeks.ca/blog/alberta-d… Please share widely 💚 #Alberta
