“Stay Free” seems like a bad motto for them to use.
Are they admitting that they are already free right now?
I thought the whole point was to “Be Free” of the tyranny of Canada.
I think they are harkening back to a golden age where they felt like their rights weren’t being trampled by Ottawa. I’m not sure that time ever existed, and I’m not sure that their rights are being trampled, but that’s not the point.
Similarly, they seem like the kind of people who believe they’re mavericks in a world of sheeple, so it could also be saying “don’t let yourself be sheeplified”.
Yeah. Unless they mean “the exact minute before Justin Trudeau took office”, I’m struggling to picture that moment. If you go back past the first Trudeau that people hate, you hit the worker-populist UFA/SoCred era, and the era that fueled it right before. And then that’s all the history there is.
100% chance this imaginary version of Alberta is also devoid of old but now unfashionable bits of Prairie life, and saturated with red American lifestyle imports, instead.
trampled by Ottawa
More like they feel trampled by the Liberals, the leader of this movement was on CBC the other day (layer of irony here) to explain their views, and it was mostly “we’re upset our party keeps losing and we want to make everyone who voted for them suffer in the same way Trump is making all of those lefties down south suffer”.
I can’t stand that fat fuck Doug Ford but I’m not threatening to secede North Bay from Ontario because the people of this province would rather shoot themselves in the foot. Like God damn, get over yourself people.
I think you’re right about the Liberal thing. It seems like the Conservatives have morphed into a regional party tied to Albertan and rural identity.
The regionalist thing is just absolutely paper thin, too. Everyone knows they’re the freshly rebranded far right, and they’re open that the entire point of sovereignty is just to force through more far-right policies. They’re not defending our linguistic and cultural distinctness from Saskatchewan, because lol.
They want to go back to a time before they felt angry about everything… which started sometime around when they started going on social media. How can they ever get back to those times again? Quick, go on social media to see what it’s telling us what to do!
Watching people do the Indepen-Dance is never pretty. Never.
Independance
It’s a good dance group name.

I guess English must be a second language for the Kremlin.
It just shows they are honest about their level of education
It was name for my pen tricks, indie pen dance.
May be inspired by the the movement of the « Indépendance du Québec » ?
Vocally. They state that they see what Quebec has gotten by threatening independence and they want the same.
It’s safe to argue that what they’ve gotten was mostly due to agreements signed before Canada was created, but that isn’t how the Albertan separatists see it.
It’s Canada, they had to use French on the sign too.
If funded by the federal or New Brunswick governments, maybe. Happily, I don’t think either entity has a hand in this.
If they can threaten to make BC landlocked while these tariffs are threatening US exports isn’t it a good plan?
Essentially giving BC a taste of their own medicine as they block pipelines? Or am I missing something obvious.
BC is a costal province.
I can’t believe I have to say that
I mean from the rest of Canada, relative to what they have now, obviously goods will have to continue to go through Alberta.
BC landlocked
Wut
