To me, like it or not (which I don't) this is just the end result of decades of frankly unfairness from various governments, especially the current one, and a few chosen provinces who don't really stand up for Alberta (at times demonize it) now upset.
We aren't a country. Have not been for a while. Its sad, and it can make you angry, but how on Earth is Smith in power and feels comfortable to say what she is saying. Oh and sorry "cause stupid" isn't a response.
and as a parting thought, what if our PM just stepped aside properly? Would Tarriffs be an actual threat? Or would Trump be happy to discuss with someone he respects? Just a thought.

Alberta's persecution complex (the wealthiest province in the country by a margin), is rather pathetic in my opinion. In this case, its expression is dangerous to the wellbeing on Canadians, Albertans and threatens our sovereignty as a country.
