Alberta separatists do exist but they are a minority.
We need to get the vote out and we need to know which MLAs support separation.
The NDP have released a statement announcing that they will be sending letters to all MLA's asking for their position on separatism...

They also had a presser, but the video was...

Not.

Hubble Observes Ghostly Cloud Alive with Star Formation www.nasa.gov/image-articl...
While this eerie NASA Hubble Space Telescope image may look ghostly, it’s actually full of new life. Lupus 3 is a star-forming cloud about 500 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius.

It is widely considered the largest brick building in the world. 
The cathedral was built in the Southern French Gothic style between 1282 and 1493.

We had to put up with school shootings because "the 2nd Amendment"
But watch ICE eliminate the right to bear arms by executing anyone they find with a gun and to hell with the 2nd Amendment.
ICE will soon be killing citizens in their own homes because they're scared there might be a gun inside.

The pick of the pulpits from the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #HuntspillToKilve leg: #StMartinFiddington. If truth be told, and Mouse does, the field was not strong on this leg but this early C17 pulpit is distinguished by some finely executed carving #SundaySermons

More than 71K Gazans have been killed in Palestine, and yet most were eggshell-walking over "antisemitism" labels. Now, ICE victims spark US mobilization, and it hurts me to see how It’s easier to find courage when advocacy feels "safe" and local than when it faces complex geopolitical gatekeeping.

Lots of interesting conversations in threads here.
A while back I read that whenever there's a controversial vote in congress, a handful of Democrats vote to support the GOP.

Democrats who aren't up for an election in a while.

Different Democrats.

Thus giving the impression that it is a minority, rather than the whole party.

Is that accurate?
