Albertian independence is absurd and highly unlikely, urban Albertans have every reason to oppose while rual Albertans mostly dont care.

Oh the rural people in Alberta also think this is stupid. Just the same people who are pushing this are the same small few that did parades about how the WHO and UN are controlling us though poisoned water, then the covid convoy, then the "Albertan" Republican party and now this. Its a bunch of useful idiots that are very clearly now getting us funding.

The best part is that this plebiscite was started by a group that wants to stay in Canada and knew this would be taken up by these wackados. The question is does Alberta want to stay in Canada, and the legal result should put an end to this separatist nonsense. (I mean come on we are at least 1000km to the nearest ocean, maybe if the idea was BC and Alberta sure but even then the treaties kinda stop this)
