Something stinks. And they're clearly not confident about reaching the already extremely lowered to the floor requirements.

Braid: Fury erupts at separatist hunt for referendum signatures in the U.S.

Elections Alberta says it's okay to seek separatist signatures outside Alberta — even in the U.S. — but federalists are furious.

There's a very silver lining here. AB separatism is a weak movement, highly unlikely to succeed. In the meantime, every extreme measure they take is going to generally discredit separatist movements in Canada.

Funny thing is, doing this is against elections AB rules, so any signatures signed outside AB are invalid

In the article you shared, they all seemed to agree obtaining signatures from ordinary residents of Alberta anywhere is legal. With a quote from Elections Alberta no less.

I muse at the uproar on this whole thing... by many accounts it's a weak movement. If that is the case it will die rather quickly and there is no need to be upset by a handful of loud upstarts.

weak case or not....every time the issue is raised in the media regardless of outcome it's a cut on the confidence of business/capital/people of "do I want to live/invest/stay here".

So it does matter and it's a big deal.

Especially for major infrastructure or long term investments needed to drive. I don't need a 15 month boom...the province needs to address structural issues and long term economic growth.
