Alberta, where it turns out that cutting off your nose to spite your face really is bad for business. Will common sense economic arguments succeed where appeals to patriotism have failed? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/deborah-yedlin-calgary-rene-levesque-nancy-southern-9.7121058 #ableg #abpoli #yyc #Calgary #APP #Canada #cdnpoli

Alberta separation talk already affecting more than a quarter of surveyed Calgary businesses | CBC News

Ongoing discourse around the prospect of Alberta separation is emerging as a top concern for Calgary businesses, many of whom say the debate is already impacting the local economy, a new Calgary Chamber of Commerce survey suggests.

CBC

“Premier Danielle Smith has repeatedly said she supports a "sovereign Alberta within a united Canada."”

I have repeatedly said I support “squadrons of flying elephants within an effective Canadian Air Force.”

Repeatedly saying something makes it come true, right? Or is that only when wearing ruby slippers? Has anyone checked Smith’s footwear recently? <there’s no place like home…there’s no place like home…there’s no place…>

Every time I hear Our Danielle say that, I don't know whether to laugh or cringe. She's quoting a line about Quebec separatists wanting "a free and sovereign Quebec within a strong and united Canada." Trouble is the line was composed by a comedian.
