@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caHighly recommend Albertan Senator Paula Simons’ @… passionate response to Alberta Separatists and for all Canadians.
“…Alberta’s current crop of separatists don’t just want to leave Canada. They seem to want to opt out of the 21st century entirely.
But Albertans aren’t quitters. So let’s not quit Canada. Let’s fight to make it better, fairer and more prosperous for everyone, Albertans included.”
