Dani’s endgame seems to be annexation of AB by the US and if that leads to the annexation of all of Canada, she’ll probably get a bonus from her paymasters.

It’s not that simple. She aligns in many ways with the Rath’s of the world, but in reality she’s closer to a federalist who is not a big fan of ottawa. Not as federalist as kenney though. She cannot openly support the anti separatist or separatist sides without pissing off the mushy middle or the less hardcore separatists or anti separatists. So you got this weird balancing act where one minute she is appealing to the separatists and the next minute the mushy middle

If alberta wants to separate let them. If they don’t, this isn’t a story. It’s pretty simple. Have the vote, watch it fail and move on.

Alberta was not built by Albertans alone. People and buisiness all across this nation put in the effort to help build what we see today.

I think Danielle Smith is a separatist the way Justin Trudeau was a feminist. It’s good for her public image, and she makes a lot of the right noises in the direction, but when push comes to shove she’s going to do what’s right for her political career.

At some point Smith is going to have to shit or get off the pot, and then she’ll realize she forgot the toilet paper. Best of luck with your mess, Marlaina!
