Saskatchewan and Manitoba are right there with them.

Saskatchewan and Manitoba are not “right there with them”

Saskatchewan may be a wee bit closer,,,, but far from being right there,,,

Manitoba isn’t even in the discussion

After a successful Alberta independence referendum,,,, that would all change I’m certain

But that’s not what it’s about

Alberta has some impressive natural resources. Sounds like moving toward a sovereign nation? Push back from both Canadian and U.S. government will be immense.


Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

The video ( a lot of it) reminds me of Festivus" airing of grievances". Does it ever discuss the Clarity Act?

You're obviously a lot closer to the situation than I am so I am not going to argue with you, but I have spent a lot of time in Manitoba, Sask and Ontario, and everyone I've met who lives outside the larger cities in Manitoba and Sask and everyone in Northwest Ontario are soooo ready to cut themselves off from being yanked around by the urban liberals.

Same can be said about the rural people of most states, especially New York......jk

I’ve lived 46 of my 50 years in rural Saskatchewan. If people you talk to in Saskatchewan are tired of being yanked around by the urban liberals you’ve been talking to very uneducated folk. Urban Saskatchewan is governed by the same conservatives in Saskatchewan that us rural folks are. They’ve been in power since 2007. My social circle is ranchers, grain farmers, tradespeople mostly and I’ve never even once heard anyone discuss separation.
