The Alberta government has introduced legislation that would require provincial entities such as universities, school boards and municipalities to get approval before making any funding deals with Ottawa. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the legislation would ensure federal funding is aligned with provincial priorities.

A federal level party... expanding into other provinces? What good would that do against a provincial party? The CAQ is the provincial party of Quebec. And it's complete shit.

In short, while the BQ obviously has Québec's interests as the reasoning, it's a confederist party; anyone who's in favour of more provincial, over federal, control would (probably) be in favour of the BQ's policies.

Alberta seems to swing that way, BC and Ontario could probably be swayed that way as well..
