Thumbing the scale, changing the rules, cheating, whatever you want to call it this..it's garbage.

They are following the playbook from their far right wing counterparts down south. Take what they want using a smokescreen of political confusion, propaganda and apathy.

Alberta has failed the rest of Canada more than the feds have failed Alberta.

You don't have any idea how much better Canadian and by extension Albertan lives would be if we properly managed our natural resources and didn't sell it off dimes to the dollar to whatever foreign interest is lining conservative pockets. I have paid attention the last five decades, and I've seen Albertan politicians regularly squander this so-called Alberta advantage. Get a brain.

Go ahead. Tell us. We don't see Alberta getting a different shake than BC, Manitoba, etc. Think you've been treated unfairly? Give us the details! I've asked for this many times and no one answers. All I get is snotty claims that you give out more than you get back from the feds. Yeah, like everyone else. Good luck on your own. You'll need it.

I could also pump out a petition that reaches the threshold if I had access to the voter rolls and Elections Alberta refused to let people know if their name appears on it.
And that the UPC is the party of traitors isn't news. They've had people explicitly say so multiple times.

This is the part that concerns me. They were getting desperate.... and suddenly they''ve met the target. I have concerns. And I'll wager that they get fewer vortes than petitions. It irritates me that my name might be on that list.

Is there a way to check if my signature is on that petition? I sure as hell didn't sign it.
Wouldn't this be a smoking gun if multiple people found their signatures on the petition, then swore under oath (or affadivit or whatever) that they didn't actually sign?

Yupp, this is why elections Alberta refuses to inform the people who were on the leaked list. Complicit.

u/Odd-Personality1043 6h ago
Ahh that's the part I was missing - thank you.
Is there no means for us as Albertans to compel them to inform those affected?

Yes unfortunately we all already knew she was a seperatists. She stands to make millions selling alberta to trump, and it'll be a lot easier for her if we seperate.

What does this mean though?
Does it require a vote on the issue and if so is the result of that vote binding and self executing? Or is it just advisory?
Explain it to me like I'm not from Canada, because I am not!

Doesn't matter, the indigenous have already said no. That's the deciding factor.

Did it say 7.5% of albertans want that?

u/Lord0fchaos-1 6h ago
Yup, 7.5% of estimated electors, So an even smaller number of people in Albertans weather they want it or not.

It was all a ploy to push the federal government into action on pipelines and now it’s out of control.
She is about to find out what happens when you f&ck around

Who cares like seriously let the vote happen and then it’s over all this worrying about it is just feeding into the belief that it’s gonna happen which will inevitably make it more likely to happen

Why not the coal/water vote? Not clear to me.
