EncephalotrocityWhy Alberta’s separation from Canada is almost impossible | About That
Nowadays Quebec separating would be as difficult as Alberta’s. I’m no historian, but it is my understanding that back when Quebec’s referendum occurred the separation could have been enacted by the Federal Government submitting the request to British Parliament which had the authority to grant it at the time.
A couple years later the Constitution Act relinquished all British Authority and based our Constitution in Canada. As it currently stands in the current Constitution separation is not allowed and as such the video explains all that would be subsequently required to get this to happen.
7 of the 10 provinces would have to agree to let Alberta separate. So Alberta would have to sweet talk 2 other provinces.
Then they would have to deal with the treaties and the people that affects would have to agree.
Then they would have to sweet talk the businesses not to leave, I am sure a few oil companies may keep offices there.
Completely doable, simple like a walk in the park! 🤪
