All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

Except that this pretends the Forever Canadian petition doesn’t exist. They succeeded; they crossed the threshold and the matter has been legally referred to the legislature. Smith is slow-rolling it with referral to a nearly dormant committee… But eventually they will be forced to either place it on the referendum ballot, or to force the legislature to vote on the matter and show their true colours.

Alberta voters should be profoundly disappointed in a provincial government unwilling to unequivocally say where they stand on a matter as fundamental as secession from Canada. It’s cowardly.

Danial Smith has stated she is not for separation. The UCP platform has stated they are not for separation.
"Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has stated she does not support Alberta separating from Canada. She formally supports a sovereign Alberta within a united Canada, focusing on regaining provincial constitutional rights and resisting federal policies rather than total independence"

"The United Conservative Party (UCP) official position is to support a "sovereign Alberta within a united Canada," focusing on increasing provincial autonomy rather than formal separation."

Does the party have members who support separation maybe, do they have members who are against abortion maybe, do they have member ho support liberal/ndp policies maybe.

I don't know how many times a person or party has to say something to be right. Unless you go off McKenna saying, "If you actually say it louder, we’ve learned in the House of Commons, if you repeat it, if you say it louder, if that is your talking point, people will totally believe it" Maybe this is what some of you are wanting to believe is true.

Actions speak louder than words.

Danielle Smith, through inaction alone, could have watched the separatist movement die. Every time, Danielle Smith has greased the road for separatists.

Canvasing take too long, with too high a bar? Lower it, lengthen the time.

Opposing referendum for Canadian unity which would mean the separatists couldn't run their referendum for a certain number of years? Slow walk it to death.

Courts deeming it unconstitutional? Change the legislation retroactively so it can go ahead anyways.

She can swear up and down that she doesn't support it, but every single one of her ACTIONS proves otherwise.

Or put another way, if someone is pissing on me while declaring it's rain, it doesn't make it rain.

A Premier is there to help their constituents. As long as they are acting legally and within bounds, she is there to help. Not intentionally fuck some of them over because you don't agree with them or their premise. She doesn't have to agree with it, but she does have to treat all Albertans fairly.

Shame those forever Canada Albertans are not her constituents.
