Archived link since Western Standard is an extreme right-wing tabloid created by a rebel news co-founder.
Take this website with a bucket of salt and treat it as a portal into the extreme right's intentions.
This is why Canadians must stay united and avoid antagonising Albertans. Most Albertans do not want this. We must avoid the USA divide and conquer strategy.
There are so many barriers to separation that make it highly unlikely.

Texas joined the US later and has a provision that they can vote themselves out of the United States again if they choose.

So if Alberta voters are hoping for the same provision, that they can back out if things go south (pun not intended), that's very wrong.

Don't be fooled.

If they do join the US and later on need to back out that would leave Alberta alone. I wouldn’t want them back in confederation.
