It’s become obvious that Alberta must separate. Whether it’s as an independent country or as a US state doesn’t change the fact that we have no place in Canada. If we ever did. The current games being played in Ottawa just makes it more urgent, and in fact makes it more obvious. The idea that you’re going to lose your identity as an Albertan is ridiculous. Does a Texan lose his identity as a Texan because he’s also an American? No. It’s silly.
