“In the weeks and months ahead, Albertans will have an opportunity to discuss our province’s future, assess various options for strengthening and protecting our province against future hostile acts from Ottawa, and to ultimately choose a path forward,” she said in a statement Tuesday.
“As Premier, I will facilitate and lead this discussion and process with the sincere hope of securing a prosperous future for our province within a united Canada that respects our province’s constitutional rights, facilitates rather than blocks the development and export of our abundant resources, and treats us as a valued and respected partner within Confederation.”
Ms. Smith’s new proposals also include reintroducing corporate and union donations to parties, constituency associations, prospective candidate associations, leadership contestants and third-party election advertisers, including those campaigning in referendums. It also eased spending limits, among other changes.
Both the provincial New Democratic Party and the UCP previously took steps to limit the amount of corporate and union money in the electoral system.
If this is gearing towards a referendum vote to separate from Canada, this will be this single dumbest thing the province has ever done.
So you mean to tell me Alberta would be better off with the people that shrugged Danielle off after all her effort to negotiate? That the province would somehow be able to magically do what it wants as a separate entity from Canada? I love when I’m a landlocked nation and need to ship my resources through foreign countries in order to get it to buyers.
Idiots. Fucking idiots.
