how ever it sets the stage for an interesting head to head of a provincial arm of a party being pro separation, with the federal party being against it. Depending on Smith's Next move, the federal conservatives may cut ties with the UCP

Smith has stated publicly over and over her position is a united Canada.

With that said, if this country cant figure out how to take advantage of its extreme potential and unparalleled advantages, especially in the current geopolitical climate, it deserves to break apart.

It’s not Alberta working to separate, it’s the RoC pushing it out.

If your solution to a country failing to fully capitalize on an opportunity is ‘then it deserves to collapse,’ that’s not political reasoning; that’s the emotional maturity of someone threatening divorce because the vacation planning wasn’t optimized.

If I were referring to one isolated opportunity, your point might be valid. It’s decades worth. These past few years are just the peak opportunities missed due to decades of bad policy.

She wouldn't be doing this if she was a federalist. This twists even forever canada into word salad. QC you continue to assert She is a federalist, a federalist wouldnt be standing up for seperatists in court, if this was Qc you'd be appauled

So the referendum question is on whether or not to have a referendum.

This is.....actually smart.

Shouldn't run afoul of the courts and duty to consult.

Also listens to both sides.

Will it be enough for Rath? Probably not.
