I believe you get concessions long before it gets to that point.

The last thing the Feds want would be to see Alberta running that referendum, assuming it wins which I'm guessing it would, and bringing the other parties to the table to negotiate in good faith.

That isn't going to go well for anyone. Because its going to re-open a whole can of worms for Quebec and likely other provinces as well.

At the end of the day lots of people believe Alberta has gotten next to nothing from a Country it has supported for a long time. And with the new laws that are being proposed to essentially kill its main industry there is going to be an extreme amount of Anger in this province over the next 5 years especially if the Liberals win another majority.
