Wow, you know, at first I thought you were joking or pulling our leg, then I realized you were serious. Your statement is exactly why a lot of Albertans are willing to look at seperation if the Liberal's stumble into power again. The fact that you expect us to be blindly grateful to Canada because of a what if statement? The fact is that we do have Oil under our land, and the Federal Government tried its best to screw us out of that revenue, and could very well be poised to do it again. Canada is not a wonderful country currently because of the unfair system of government, and the unfair elections system. And I was insulted by your statement on calling Harper a disgusting pig of a man, and I would retailiate to that by saying at least he's not a weak willed slimy used car sales man confidence man like Paul Martin.
what a ridiculous statement.
Everything that Alberta has gained over the last 20 years has been earned no thanks to the Federal Government, and as far as I'm concerned on the seperatism issue, we should use it in the same way as Quebec and put the screws to the Feds until they squeal.
