That's not good. However I think what this can be turned into a major positive if Canadians become receptive to working together rather than against each other which is easier said than done given Alberta and Quebec's history of unhappiness. Many of you haven't accepted that the consensus of this forum does not align with a lot of Albertans and that's not going to change as long as a majority of Albertans continue to believe we get the short end of the stick. That's a problem and maybe someone like Nenshi can bridge that gap if he was leading the province but the federal government is going to have to make some decisions for the country that may not align with Quebec and that's another hang up. Are Quebecers going to be able to put some of their issues aside for the greater of the country? I hope so and there's been some positive movement there but this country really isn't large enough to have such division. I'm still a proud Canadian but I'm getting tired of the infighting and division and I'm hoping that Trump has actually given us the kick in the rear we needed to start working together. I think/hope Carney truly is striving to unify this country as that's music to my ears but much easier said than done but I'm pulling for it.

This part is not true, Carney has already been on trips to strengthen bonds and trades with other countries to not rely on the US. Just because they are not shouting it from the rooftops does not mean that it is not happening. Just check out this tweet from Emmanuel Macron
