a very sad day for Alberta and western Canada as we were the loser in this federal election, and over the next 4 yrs are going to be paying for it.

All you guys leaving.... Where are you going to go?

Well if BC Alberta Saskatchewan and maybe Manitoba leave and formed our own country we would be one of the wealthiest countries in the world and able to afford the social programs and even fund development of real alternate energy without fawking over families.
These four provinces have the diversity of industries that most countries dream of and there wold be no issues developing forgien trade for all of the products that would be available.
If we really want out quickly just call up the US, Donald or others.
If they hear Alberta wants out and into the US the Rockafellas will promote the oilsands as clean energy with their next 200million.
If Alberta wants out it is not hard to leave.
Just who or if anyone wants to come along.
Just remember it is working visas for all the new forgieners , nobody would just get flown in for easy money camp jobs any more.
Our own country is best, sharing with all of the US second but even that is a huge step forward for our children's futures.

I'm all for leaving this political wasteland, however you will never get the lower mainland to see it your way. BC wouldn't leave this leaving the oil land locked again. Even if the Americans want to buy the land is that where you really want to be? Then the native issue. Say you can get BC to leave nothing happens here with out their say so I really don't see how leaving is going to be the answer. Perhaps we need more electoral reform in the way of better equal representation, or maybe some kind of 3 representation deal, one from the east, one from the west and a overall chief. Not sure of the exact answer but I'm also not convinced that leaving is the right way to go about it

Presently the federal govt can go forward with developement of any kind in the best interest of Canada.
We just have a pussy in charge that won't.
Staying in confederation has not worked for the last 114 years.
It is time to leave and if it is without BC there are other options.
BC would also become seperate from the rest of Canada especially if the Yukon Territory joined, they should choose wisely.
