Alberta cleared for separation referendum.

All of those threats the Quebecios made were designed solely for the purpose of squeezing more money out of Ottawa, political extortion as it were.

The equation gets more complicated with Alberta's potential withdrawal, a good chunk of the money used to pay off Quebec will no longer be there.

And make no mistake, Alberta is going to use this to leverage Ottawa. And Ottawa will make some mealy mouthed concessions and will try to coerce the citizens of Alberta. Then it will depend on how much the citizens of Alberta trusts Ottawa.

That would be as ridiculous as Texas seceding because they don't like the Democrats.

I think the New Democrats are about as far left as it gets there -- but by American standards, even those half-assed more-or-leftists are Commies.

Going to be fun to watch this unfold you bet. There is a handshake deal in place that upon successful passing of the referendum the US will extend the new nation of Alberta a $500 billion line of credit secured by their oil reserves. This gives Alberta significant leverage in negotiations with Ottawa.

You go Carney "the great uniter". LMAO

Sounds like signature gathering has begun.

Just need to keep my eyes peeled for mail or details where to go provide mine.

I'm already checked out of Canada, we just need to make it official.

The more signatures the more leverage.

I'm still looking for a recent poll.
