Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

please ABSK, please, leave.
show the twerps in Otta-was (get it?) you ‘mean business’ (the resource business)
and clear the h-e-hockey sticks OUT. bla bla bla the naysayers. well after their whinging what then? more of the same old same old?
here’s the kicker: the finances of TROC will continue to slide, they will continue to levy more and more transfer payments (do we still have those?) because for one thing, with those, there is ZERO motivation to DO anything about the disparity.
and if ya dont leave, well ‘you deserrrrrrrve it yada yada’ until you do.
Population
SK/AB – 6M
Vietnam – 101M
Denmark – 6M
Iran – 92M
Better supply guns to everyone to start a military. Huge area to defend.
But how many of those other nations have … indigenous … peoples to support. Nahhhh … sorry Sask. you can’t afford it.
8 ft chain link and razor wire as far as the eye can see. It will be big, it will be beautiful and we’ll make Ottawa pay for it. Bigly.
Just based on the referendum question now getting scrutinized by the Courts, it is very apparent they won’t let it happen without some serious pushback.
Western Conservatives again see western separatists as a bigger threat to them…sadly, than the NDP. Repeating history, oblivious to the reality that freedom loving separatists would be pushing them in the direction they claim to be wanting to go.
This fact belies their sincerity. They find separatists as a hard target compared to the low hanging fruit of the socialist/collectivist.
Comfortable with all the standard rhetoric like Pierre is so good at delivering. Mulroney 2.0?
Keeping the tribe intact is the ultimate goal.
100% expect a referendum to be held on the question of separation.
We don’t know how this will unfold in the coming few months, it’s not unexpected, we should never underestimate their treachery, they’ve been at it for quite some time.
You might say they’re experts at this sort of thing.
Tamara Lich and Chris Barber will face sentencing in about 7 weeks. For now I think they’re both spending some time in the woods, not the Atlantic Canada woods but woods nonetheless. Where more people should be just a little bit more often.
The trial, makes a proper mockery of Canada’s garbage justice system, and I expect the AB justice system has the potential to be mocked as well.
My daughter too, was in Waterton National Park for the past week, testing my noisy MSR stove and sleeping in an actual tent.

Read the excellent article. If I did read it correctly, I understand that these figures are the situation now?
What will the result be when the 500 Billion in investment that was driven away comes in?
What happens when the parasite freeloaders are thrown off our backs?
But, but, but…we’ll be landlocked!!!! Oh dear! Oh dear! Oh dear! (Clutching pearls furtively)
We must cling to our red fleur-de-lis!
WE ARE LANDLOCKED NOW WITH SHACKLES PLACED ON THE PRODUCTIVE AND INNOVATIVE!!!!
I am very confident that DJT will very quickly recognize and protect an independent West.
canaduh is circling the drain and that is starting to accelerate. It is my fervent prayer that a referendum never comes to pass as the place will collapse soon. The Arthabaska by-election strengthens my hope
there ya go. lm willing to let this (exact quote) “post-national state” to fall apart, ie kaybeck didnt ‘leave’ because when it happened, there was NOTHING to ‘leave’ if, IF it provides a gritty hard lesson to the world and the rest of the ‘post-national states’ an abject lesson in POLITICS what happens when you crap on certain geographic areas of the . . . . . . .the . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ‘post-national state’. they leave the birthday party.
I’m far from being an expert, but there are some similarities between youse guys and some British colonies 250 years ago.
I’d bet the Liberal Canadian Government – is there any other kind – views talk of independence as rebellion.
I read the WS publication this morning. There is little doubt that the economics are in favor of independence/affiliation for Alberta and Saskatchewan with the US. The real question will not be feasibility, it will be whether there is enough in favor ( currently about 25%) to sway the undecided (about 40%) and put up with the 35% who are masochistically aligned to the current situation. There is little to move the latter segment intellectually (they are mentally challenged emotional idiots). Malcolm Gladwell’s two books, The Tipping Point and The Revenge of the Tipping explore the science behind social epidemics and how small changes can lead to large-scale transformations. As someone who wants significant changes to Alberta/Saskatchewan I will be satisfied with small positive steps to the end goal rather than a giant leap that fails in spectacular fashion.
Not sure about percentages in polls. Lately, there have been some showing much higher in favor. Of course, there are some showing lower favorability. It depends greatly on who asks, how it is asked and where it is asked.
I do believe that there are many in that “mushy” area that are fed up, angry, tired, etc. but are: a> don’t want to say anything, b> can’t conceive of a way forward or how it would work, c> too busy living regular lives or d> are comfortable in their misery (better the devil you know, same as b. The US declaration of independence mentioned this very fact)
As canaduh devolves further; the death of the auto industry, the death of steel, the death of forestry, rampant spending, ever increasing deficits and the resultant debt servicing cost, the continual flooding of immigration from incompatible cultures and the protection of Quebec dairy at ALL COST!!! It will be imperative that good quality information be widely distributed to start to move the complacent from their reverie.
As for the adamantly, I am canadian no matter what, elbows up moron, there will be no swaying them. I think you will find that they come from a certain set: those that are wholly and completely dependent upon government, at all levels, be it for employment, welfare, pension, graft etc. Good riddance to them.
The point will be moot soon when the debt downgrade comes in the fall, the unemployment rises and things come to their inevitable conclusion
Some historians estimate that 40% of Patriots wanted out from under Britain’s rule and 20% were Loyalists.
The other 40% just wanted to be left alone.
I don’t understand why so many westerners are hesitant.
With Independence you can still visit the Old Dominion parts.
Geography isn’t changing.
The weather won’t change.
You won’t have a retarded King on your money.
K-bec will probably push to sever right after and how prime is that?
And you can prevent the Black-faced Twat of a former PM from ever visiting again.
And you’ll be wealthier.
The question I would like to ask many is how your life would be appreciably worse off if you woke one morning and there wasn’t a red Fleur de Lis flying over the local school. What will you have lost?
I can tell you what will be gained! How about not having to work until noon every day for someone else who hates how you earn your money but sure loves it when it comes into their pocket. How about having your God given rights actually recognized and being safe – guarded? How about being treated equally before the law? How about having your say count the same as anyone else’s? How about living where human initiative is rewarded and not punished?
Good God I could go on!
Speaking of separation, how do you get rid of the communists and socialists that are rampant in both provinces? There are 17 cowboys in Alberta and 23 farmers in Saskatchewan. Probably generating 80% of the GDP but still. The rest are grifters. The grift is strong.
Well,if you have not already seen the Uni-Party of Can Ahh Duh,Western Separation should bring them into sharp focus.
Trump will offer the West a shortcut,to statehood,because that serves the interests of the USA better than an independent nation controlling the natural resources of the west.
And it serves his image,uniting the lower 48 with Alaska would be “Huge”.however he says it.
And that is easily a much better deal for us than Canada is providing.
Does it serve Westerners interests?
I say mostly.
Especially Constitutional rights and Freedoms and Equality before the law.
And we are lazy bastards..
If Ottawa was not actively destroying our past,present and future,this discussion would not even be happening.
Financial reality is what drives the division.
We get to pay the bill and repair the destruction,while the destroyers keep right on.
And our Eastern “peers” believe this is exactly how Canada should be.
How does one “reason” with that?
A parting of the ways is better than a blood bath.
Which is the State of Thuggery’s only option.
Of course..in the long term an independent country is better for us,for without Western Funds,Can Ah Duh is bankrupt in a few short years,ripe for us to buy up the pieces we used to love.
