Alberta probably isn’t leaving Canada tomorrow... but the people, politics, money, data, and foreign attention surrounding the separation movement may be worth taking seriously.
This week on Politics Is Broken, Brittlestar and Lisa dig into the Alberta separation push, the nearly 302,000 signatures reportedly submitted, the voter data scandal, Danielle Smith’s “Sovereign Alberta within a United Canada” tightrope, First Nations treaty challenges, and why this may be less about Alberta actually leaving Canada and more about what happens when political grievance becomes a machine.
Also discussed: magic beans, King Charles conspiracy fears, Brexit warnings, separatist leaders who maybe shouldn’t be allowed near the steering wheel, and why “we’re just sending Ottawa a message” is a pretty risky way to flirt with constitutional chaos.
