🇨🇦: Most people don’t realize that Alberta’s GDP per capita is ~40% higher than our avg. If they separated 🇨🇦 would drop by just over 6%.
It would deliver a bigger blow than 🇺🇸 hitting us with max tariffs, and lead to the sharpest decline since WWII. https://t.co/aFyvJVPZbO

1. Yesterday, Mark Carney won a Liberal minority—thanks to Ontario, Quebec, and Atlantic Canada.
Today, Alberta introduced a bill that quietly makes it possible to hold a referendum on LEAVING Canada.
Coincidence? Not a chance.— Sheila Gunn Reid (@SheilaGunnReid) April 29, 2025
3. Under Jason Kenney, the rules required signatures from 20% of ALL eligible voters in just 90 days.
That’s over 600,000 names—impossible for any grassroots movement.
It was built to fail.— Sheila Gunn Reid (@SheilaGunnReid) April 29, 2025
5. Let that sink in:
As the Laurentian elite cheers Carney’s coronation, Alberta just unlocked a legal path to break away from Ottawa.
This isn’t sabre-rattling.
It’s legislation.— Sheila Gunn Reid (@SheilaGunnReid) April 29, 2025
7. Albertans have been watching the Liberals hijack their resources, demonize their industries, ignore their votes, and attack our culture of freedom and self-reliance.
Now they’ve been handed a tool to fight back.
Not with protests.
Not with hashtags.
With a referendum.— Sheila Gunn Reid (@SheilaGunnReid) April 29, 2025
9. This change doesn’t guarantee Alberta’s exit.
But it opens the gate—and now the question is:
Who’s ready to walk through it? And who will follow after?

The dream of Canada becoming an energy superpower officially ended yesterday.
Today, Yves-François Blanchet confirmed there will be no oil or gas development in Quebec—and the rest of Canada 🇨🇦

Alberta takes first step in separation from Canada.
While the rest of Canada woke up hungover to a Liberal minority under Prime Minister Mark Carney, Alberta soberly took the first legal step toward the exit door.
Tuesday afternoon, Premier Danielle Smith’s government introduced the Election Statutes Amendment Act, 2025—and buried inside it is the most explosive reform in decades: a realistic path to a citizen-led referendum on Alberta separation.
The bill slashes the threshold under the Citizen Initiative Act—a law that technically allowed referendums on policy and constitutional matters, but until now, came with a signature requirement so high it was dead on arrival.
