While we wait for her to be removed, the people of Alberta, need to also gather signatures of those that do not want to leave Canada.... I think that would gather way more signatures and definitely stand against her action. How do we do that?

ptgr.bsky.social•1 day ago

Smith is full crap. She must comply with the federal Clarity Act (google it). There is no one weird trick for AB to separate. It's a clear process requiring a Fed approved vote, super-majority, and amendment to the Constitution (an onerous process itself)

Nobody is separating.

tstoodley.bsky.social•1 day ago

Fair. But I still think showing how her/them how the majority of Albertans feel is a good idea!

whoarewekidding.bsky.social•1 day ago

Not an Albertan but I understand the government is proposing to make it easier to hold referendums.

Could I suggest you have a referendum to never allow a referendum on separation?

Maybe it's not an original idea but I don't think I've ever heard of it before.

ptgr.bsky.social•1 day ago

So? The Clarity Act lays out the process. Ottawa approves the question, super-majority required, negotiations with RoC and indigenous, and must amend the Constitution (a very high bar by itself).

She isn't doing any of this, so she can STFU and stop wasting everyone's time.

whoarewekidding.bsky.social•1 day ago

No she won't because they won't win.

But a massive win in a referendum to never have that referendum would be quite the message crushing successionist hopes. Even a huge signature drive that they had to fight would be pretty hilarious.

kmkohle.bsky.social•1 day ago

Because she’s distracting Albertans from the Healthcare scandal.

Clarity Act gives Ottawa a veto on the referendum question, requires a super-majority, requires negotiations with all provinces and indigenous peoples, and requires amending the Constitution of Canada (itself an onerous process).

So, when is Smith submitting her question to Ottawa for approval?

ptgr.bsky.social•1 day ago

So... maybe ask Smith in the Legs if she is aware of the Clarity Act and how she intends to comply with it.

Diversion politics. She’s getting ppl talking about everything but the AHS scandal.

Its just a grift. Conservatives like to grift. Since Ms. Smith was appointed Premier and not elected perhaps Alberta should change that. See if Alberta will elect her.

ptgr.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yup. Nobody is separating. The Clarity Act lays out the process. Ottawa approves the question, super-majority required, negotiations with RoC and indigenous, and must amend the Constitution (a very high bar by itself).

We need more of this type of resistance. Good-humoured, but it also reveals ridiculousness and bad faith attempts to divide the country with non-issues.

beemacdee.bsky.social•13 hours ago

In 2000, the Reform / Canadian Alliance Party said that if a petition got 350K signatures there would be a national vote on an issue. This Hour Has 22 Minutes then went on to got 370K signatures on a petition to force a vote to have party leader Stockwell Day change his name to Doris Day.

thedevilmaysigh.bsky.social•1 day ago

It is treason against Canada, it is backstabbing your neighbours.

Danielle Smith has no mandate to separate. The corruption is so deep in the #UCP

jupitess.bsky.social•1 day ago

Im a NB’er and i believe Alberta has way more Canadians than those who dont want to be. I dont think she has the votes, and like Quebec, have the vote, let it be defeated, and mone ahead. Call it a referendum on Danielle Smith, and watch her burn!

witchforreal.bsky.social•1 day ago

Kinda like 🍊🥜💩 and his EO, lol but Wab was on the news mimicking him. Did I ever laugh lol perhaps she wants that🤷‍♀️
Must be the water in florida that got her.

witchforreal.bsky.social•1 day ago

Perhaps her job could be on the vote as well as treason call from the citazens. Like she is not on canada side that is very clear. She has a few fringe people that support the rapist, that is it. It will be a big NO and yes waisted $. Maybe someone should referendum her. It would NEVER END as well.

jupitess.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I believe there is a recall process that can be used if a group got organized and collected enough signatures. She is definitely anti-Canadian, which I find shocking since, without Canada, she would be nothing.

Alberta and Quebec could work together with Ottawa to talk about our changed world and changed priorities, and how we can thrive while protecting ourselves from the fascist next door. Instead the UCP are catering to fanatics and TBA who genuinely want to be part of the US.

I won’t give them a minutes peace. I called her office today and the receptionist Johnny, who informed me that Danielle said, “will step down rather separate”. I snorted and he got upset, she’s getting her staff to bullshit, so it’s daily calls again.

I called today and spoke to Teresa. Said Danielle’s virtue signaling to her minority base was not the focus most Albertans want. Asked her to resign and call an election.

It’s a distraction. She wants to refocus attention away from #corruptcare, the UCP satellite office she’s setting up in Abu Dhabi, who sure as hell don’t need our oil & gas, the dumbing down of grade school curriculum, spending taxpayers money for trips to Florida, and her personal grift.

auntyfa.bsky.social•1 day ago

Silly lady has a 4 year rental contract. Renters don't get to take the house and property. They don't belong to her or the loony 25% of the population who listen to her drivel. Now, what was that I heard about more UCP corruption in high places? So glad Nenshi is in the wings.

Does she realize that a large majority of people in
Alberta live here, but came from other places?
We do love this province, but we will always be
