Just a larping edgelord, ignore people like him
no america, you can't have alberta.
Alberta is Canada's bitch and rightly so. Newfies built the place with Ontario money. I can at least respect BC but albertans are complete shit
LARP
Based, death to Alb*rta
I'm seeing signs around here saying their going to try as much. Not gonna happen though, Quebec couldn't do it.
Figuratively speaking; what would happen if they did try to leave?
Why do you guys hate Alberta so much?
I think Albertans basically support the rest of Canada because the rest of Canada sum bitches. It's like Catalonia wanting to secede.
Nothing. Maybe a vote that turns out like the Quebec vote; it fails. At the very best, maybe a majority will vote to leave, but Canada will rig it just so that it's 51% stay again.
Whiny,, good for nothing cocksuckers who want to separate out of greed. At least the Quebec want to separate for legitimate reasons
>Why do you guys hate Alberta so much?
Needlessly arrogant for being Texas knock-offs who would be nothing without oil.
They're all retarded larpers. In a hypothetical situation even if they wanted to secede we would go full Spain because it's unconstitutional.
no, we'd give them the vote the same way we allowed quebec the vote.
Both their referendums were asking vague questions and were only held by the premier so when he went to Ottawa to negotiate they would know he has the public's backing. In order to secede you need approval from the PM and all 9 other premiers which can't happen. In any case, it was never going to.
>Parizeau, who announced his pending resignation as Quebec Premier the following day, would later state that he would have quickly proceeded with a unilateral declaration of independence had the result been affirmative and negotiations failed or been refused,the latter of which was later revealed as the federal position in the event of a "Yes" victory
I live in Alberta and Albertans unironically deserve death.
This.
I heard that Alberta is Canada's Alabama.
Is this true?
No Alabama has culture and soul. Alberta does not.
>>First, they stated that under the Canadian Constitution (and with Quebec being a party to it since its inception), unilateral secession was not legal. However, should a referendum decide in favour of independence, the rest of Canada "would have no basis to deny the right of the government of Quebec to pursue secession." Negotiations would have to follow to define the terms under which Quebec would gain independence, should it maintain that goal.
that's what the referendum was for. they could not unilaterally leave, but there would be no legal mechanism to deny them independence if they had a positive vote.
No. A few people just like to pretend that it is. Atlantic Canada is a lot more like our southern United States than Alberta.
If we stopped paying taxes you guys would just die off. That's why I don't pay taxes it just goes to your kind haha
You people are all unemployed now because of the collapsing oil industry.
Reported to the CRA
lol yeah never. Albertans are all unemployed and uneducated and they get mad at literally everything around them. The funniest things is they don't realize they're more liberal than every American state and they act like they're hard ass rednecks. The province is a landlocked shithole.
Niggas probably on EI like all Alb*rtans now lmao.
>a fucking leaf
This I only have to live here only because of my job in military. I cant wait get out of terrible shithole. I would gladly massacre these people for Canada.
>vague questions
The first one was vague, but the second one wasn't so vague, even if it was long-winded. Basically it was just saying that, if the "yes" side won, they would try to conclude an agreement to separate within the timeframe specified in the referendum question, after which they would separate with or without a separation agreement/deal (similar to the whole issue of no deal Brexit, for example).
Calgary here can confirm.
Funny thing is most of the unemployed here are all GED graduates with no marketable skills other than stacking pipes together.
I could totally get another job if I really wanted to, but I wanna spite Trudeau by spending his money on videogames ;) Thanks Trudeau you socialist bastard now I get to game on your dime dude. Thats payback for what you did to Canada.
You know you have to pay that back right.
But that's still entirely conditional on the basis of the government entering into negotiations. If they refused to, and they can with any arbitrary reason regarding the referendum's question or the definition of a clear majority, then Quebec or Alberta could only make a unilateral declaration which won't be recognized.
>The Constitution of Canada would remain in effect until terms of secession were agreed to by all parties involved, through an amendment to the Constitution, which needs the consent of the federal Parliament and every province
>Albertans are all unemployed
fuck off back to the east
go deploy to manitoba
University of Alberta girls are slutty af but I prefer macewan girls. ;^)
I was born in Alberta, moved to BC like every sane Albertan. Good try though. Let me guess you drive a 20 year old pickup truck you paid to much for and post about how much you love the south on instagram
Same but I moved to Ontario and got a comfy job in state-run power company.
I actually get disability actually because I have motor retardation. They can't tell I work on the oil field when I get paid under the table though haha.
>All these Eastoids in the thread think we won't be leaving the failed Canadian experiment in the next 5 years
Enjoy having no equalization payments when the time comes. If you're really unlucky, the rest of Western Canada will join us (very likely). Get used to being America's bitch, we ain't helping you out!
Albertan reporting
I hate Alberta
I hate the rest of Canada
Fuck all of you
Is Alberta that bad? Might go there to seek refuge from real estate prices in BC
you will always give us gibs and you are already America's bitch
