🇨🇦 Ottawa pushed Alberta this far
The absurd part is not that an Alberta secession petition was verified. The absurd part is that anyone in Ottawa still thinks endless extraction, redistribution, regulation and moral lecturing can go on forever without blowback. Alberta keeps paying into a federation that treats its energy sector like a criminal enterprise, and now a petition to force a referendum has cleared verification, as reported. That is not fringe theater. That is federal failure with paperwork.
For a decade, the Trudeau model was simple: milk the West, flatter Laurentian elites, bury the country in post-national slogans, and call any resistance extremism. Danielle Smith did not invent this fury. Ottawa did, with anti-energy policy, sovereignty erosion, and a governing class more loyal to climate dogma and globalist approval than to Canadian unity. When a province starts flirting with the exit, the problem is not Alberta. The problem is a regime that treats nationhood like an administrative inconvenience.
