2/ …which is why it’s so important to have leaders who absolutely condemn racism and refuse to tolerate it.
We can withstand having racists amongst us.
We can’t withstand being governed by people who tell those racists “Be loud. Be proud. You have nothing to fear from us.”
Make them afraid.

Dear Canada:
The vast majority of us Albertans love this country. We won’t allow the separatists to tear it apart. We’re going through some things, but we’ll be okay. Please be patient.

Now is the time for unity, empathy and compassion for a devastated community and families that will never be the same.
Sadly, we are seeing some people trying to exploit and weaponize tragedy to promote hatred and division.
Unspeakable violence is never caused by a person’s identity.

Conservatives spent over a decade feeding the insatiable appetite in Alberta for anger and alienation towards Ottawa.
Now, like Jason Kenney, they need to step up and slay the beast they helped create before it does even more damage. #cdnpoli #abpoli

I desperately want this scene to be made into a Heritage Moment.
i hold no love for Mark Carney but even I've gotta have sympathy for the dude when I imagine his aide being like "sir, the president thinks you own the whole bridge and you're being mean about it" and him having to put down his copy of The Economist to make the dumbest phone call of all time

These are not smart people.
1) Independence makes you *more* dependent on federal policy, since they get to decide whether or not you can access TMX. Forget about ever building another pipeline west.
2) You need the goods (food, etc.) that cross "our land". Blocking their passage is self-injury.

I will join the exodus, which will likely mean a hit on my home resale value. I will not stay in a province whose voters insist on shooting themselves in the foot. The inmates can have the asylum to themselves. Actual separation however is a non starter anyway.
