Mitch Sylvestre, CEO of separatist group Alberta Prosperity Project, said he thinks there are many Albertans who would not be inclined to share their honest opinions with a pollster, and that his group is hearing from many in favour of separation.

“Polls are irrelevant, as far as we're concerned here. We're not paying attention to them,” he told CBC News.

Polls are irrelevant because this traitorous clown is getting paid either way.

This is the goal I think, to get pipelines through with a majority government. Seperatism is a plan by the US to change our political leanings, to displace Russian oil globally, since we won't do it ourselves.

Threats to US hegemony is the largest driver of change, and there will be many things that seem to make no sense.

There's a problem, though:

Exactly as the Whites, when some Indigenous tribe's leader refused to sign-over the land to Whites .. just asked some neighbor of theirs to sign-over the-original-population's land, instead: so long as they had ANY "signature", then legalism would accept that as valid..

the same tactic works now: IF the people in-power sign Alberta's joining of Trump's "America", then legally it's done, & nothing can undo it.

Legalism has extinguished RuleOfMoralLaw ( aka Natural Law ) & RuleOfJustLaw from our world, pretty-much completely.

There are consequences of that, for our countries.
