Is there a bit of rhetoric here? No question.

But this has been happening to Alberta my entire adult life and longer.

This coup is merely a catalyst for a renewal of something that has been talked about for at least 30 years.

Alberta is tired of getting shafted left, right and center by Liberal governments....now this is seen as a complete slap in the face, and peole get tired of it.

This not some "new' phenomenon....Alberta seperation has quite a bit of legacy, though support was never strong enough to actually move forward. Now? Maybe the Liberals are learning that one should let a sleeping dog lie.
