2. If Alberta were to separate, at international law it would not be a party to any of Canada's international agreements -- so no part of NAFTA or any other treaties.

And you can bet that Montana would immediately divert the St. Mary and Milk Rivers. They've been looking for a way out of that treaty for a long time. (They did get the shaft on that deal I must admit).

Without irrigation for the south, Alberta's ag industry would crash.
