    1. Alberta is like that kid who threatens to run away from home because mommy took away his iPad. We all know they aren’t going anywhere

    2. @Spectacular Disaster Don’t be so sure about that. We work hard for the rest of Canada to take what is given them, then criticize the way in which we have provided for them. Better do your homework.

    1. Or… Just ignore her and Alberta could be gone in 7 months. Don’t be surprised if Saskatchewan and Manitoba go too…. We’ve had it!

    1. @WILDROSE you know the funny thing is I would say the same if I was in your shoes. I’m from Ontario and think Doug Ford is doing a ok job. Like Alberta, we just need the federal government to get on board.
      Take care

    2. @Scott Wilson get on board about what exactly what is the federal government dictating over your daily life

  1. After many generations, it gets really old being the brunt of federal leaders disdain in Alberta. I’m sorry you kick a dog enough times and he will bite back. Danielle is on the right track!

    1. 83% of Canadians who recieved a vacination would disagree.
      86% here in Ontario.
      Surprise surprise 90% in Alberta.

  2. She wasn’t even voted in by Alberta but her party that’s not democracy and anything she does is undemocratic

  3. If YouTube still allowed for the public to see how many dislikes this video receives, viewers would be astounded!
