The human heart is
The size of a
Fist
Clenched.
Indefatigable, and infallible
On pain of death.
And yet it skips
At the most curious
Times,
To remind us of its finite
Beats.
And perhaps to attend us
To use them both wisely
And with abandon.

The separatist movement in the 1980s was fueled by antisemitism, and hatemongers such as Doug Christie and Jim Keegstra. Now, separatists want an Alberta without immigrants? Well, if that's the case, it's going to be a pretty empty place - without labour, without investment capital, without culture.
