I'm torn. On one hand, I agree with the premise that if we're going to get the question we might as well have the majority frame it as 'we want to stay in canada'. And I think it's absolutely hilarious that the separatists got beat to the punch and now they have to fight in court (with government support
....)
But at the end of the day, whether the Forever Canadian folks or the separatists get their question through, we still wind up with a referendum and yes/no question on whether Alberta should stay in Canada. The only difference is whether the question is 'should we leave' or 'should we stay'.
