No word if we keep the loonie, too, or if Canada still has to build Energy East.

So why won’t they have the Sovereign Nation of Daniel Smith passports?

This will be featured on any Alberta currency, which would be worth less than a Russian ruble which is 0.01 cent of a Canadian dollar. 😂 Go for it Danielle.

It’s amazes me that they think they would keep their passports, their pensions, and I assume the military and all of the infrastructure and Canadians will just give it to them for free?

Sadly they are highly misinformed in Alberta and they'll have no CDN defence dept protecting them. So if Trump wanted to lob over some drone bombs to force them into submission and blow up their oil production, they'd be defenceless.

I’m sure Danielle plans to join the US. She badly wants to be under trump.

If Smith doesn't like democracy in Canada, she sure won't like being run by a dictator -she would lose all standing as a leader or have any power. It's a dumb move. 🙄

I seem to recall, a few decades back, when Quebec was mooting the idea of continuing to use CAD as currency, there was a great deal of angry cowboy-booted stomping and cries of "leave with what you brought!"

Giddily awaiting First Nations long-form thoughts on this.

And BEST of all, the public and the media, or to be more exact - media owned by Postmedia - stops talking about the UCP’s corrupt healthcare scandal (and other UCP incompetence)! Woopeee! #distraction #ragebaiting #incompetence #Daniellesmithunfit #Canadafirst

Oh they're gonna keep the loonie alright 😵‍💫

ratlantica.bsky.social•34 days ago

Nope, no CDN currency at all, that's gone.

You will not keep your passports. No citizenship. No passport. You will be landlocked. Good luck with that.

Alberta separatists would lose the Burnaby tidewater access for Transmountain pipeline. TMX is owned by all Canadians. We are all 'owners' of an unprofitable mountain of debt.
Carney just promised to dredge False Creek to get bigger ships in. More ecological destruction of BC's Salish Sea!😤

We want ALL the cake…🙄

There is gonna be a lot of dumb claims from these guys.

ratlantica.bsky.social•34 days ago

If it happened, Alberta will be served only by US med. Insurers and they'll pay through the nose for any medical services, bankruptcy would be very common. Have fun Alberta.

ratlantica.bsky.social•34 days ago

Nope, not keeping anything if this ever happens which it won't, no CDN currency, no passports, no citizenship, no Canada Pension, no trade deals, no EI, no healthcare and it becomes an unqualified sovereignty, unless Smith wants to join Russia.

Does everyone get their own unicorn, too?

lirettet.bsky.social•34 days ago

This is the biggest issue, these yokels can say whatever they want and the blue koolaid crew will slurp it up at face value.

Such BS
