Would CP rail keep the HQ in an independent Alberta or would they relocate to another province so that they could remain in Canada?

For that matter we should go down the path of evaluating which companies would remain in Alberta and which ones would relocate. When Quebec was threatening to pull out of Canada, the capital markets and investment community punished the province with an exodus of companies and employment opportunities to more stable jurisdictions.

Doctors, nurses and teachers would have opportunities to leave for other provinces who would be wise to run “we are calling” campaigns.
