Alberta is about to create a federal constitutional challenge, and find out that they are, despite the conservatives' collective pipe dream, part of Canada.

I can already hear the chorus of "this is a gross overreach of federal power" and "Trudeau is a dictator" whines coming from the usual culprits. And the base gets riled up even further...

It's starting to become ever more tempting to, at some point, actually give them that freedom they so desperately want and defederate Alberta from Canada. I give them about as long as California was actually independent for before they come begging to be let back in, after they come to the realization that they are a land-locked nation that depends on its neighbors and existing trade relationships and agreements to sell any of their precious oil to the world.

Be careful what you wish for wild roses, you just might get it.
