Tonight, on The Ezra Levant Show, will a Mark Carney win cause Alberta to separate? Preston Manning sure thinks so.

Manning believes that many Westerners would not tolerate another Liberal government. And tonight's guest would agree with the sentiment.

The former Reform leader took particular aim at Carney for supporting Trudeau's environmental policies, including the Impact Assessment Act and the oil and gas production cap.

Premier Danielle Smith also threatened to discuss the province's place in Canada if her demands weren't met, expressing her frustrating with the Liberals.

Though she fell short of endorsing secession, you can tell the pressure is starting to mount.

Albertans, separate from the provincial government, will send a delegation to Washington to seek U.S. support for a potential independence referendum later this year.

In contrast, Alberta separatist leader Jeffrey Rath is pushing for a referendum, now.

A recent Leger poll for Rebel News found that 1 in 4 Albertans would support leaving Canada for the U.S.

Amid Carney's refusal to change his policies on oil and gas, in part, support for Western secession continues to grow.

    What was Carneys role in freezing bank accounts, I just read this, needs to be vetted….

    MARK CARNEY’S ROLE IN FREEZING BANK ACCOUNTS
    Mark Carney, former governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, publicly advocated for freezing bank accounts to counter the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests in Canada.
    Shortly after Carney’s advocacy, the Emergencies Act was invoked, leading to the freezing of 206 bank accounts linked to protest supporters.
    The freezing of bank accounts raised concerns over violations of the Charter rights to freedom of expression and protection against unreasonable search and seizure.
    A federal court later ruled the act “unreasonable"

    The longer I listened the more angry I became toward Jeffrey Rath. He couldn’t shut up for two seconds to listen to a question. He treated every question with distain, insinuating that every concern was “fear-based” and that the movement had already “done the work” in answering. He is blustery and self-aggrandizing and there’s not a snowballs chance in hell that he would be able to lead a successful separation movement.
    However, the discussion of separatism is vitally important. We need to have it, whether Alberta separates or not. Because we need to decide what we’re going to fight for; are Albertans fighting to leave or fighting to stay? Is Canada fighting to keep them or willing to let it go? It’s a legitimate question that I believe deserves it’s due process. I don’t believe that due process is able to happen in 90 days (the stated referendum period). The results of the upcoming federal election will 100% affect the leanings of Albertans, so may God be with us and grant us His wisdom.

    Canada is my country. My home and native land….do we stand on guard for Canada? I wonder. We need to, and we need to do all that we can to ensure that Pierre Polievre is the next prime minister. The conservatives need to keep a very close watch on the election to ensure that the Liberals do not rig it as I suspect they will if they can get away with it. God bless Canada!

    We are all better off if Canada is a whole, it’s the criminal organizations that need to separate from state, Canada needs to lead the way in accountability for the street level and government criminals well into the future.

    If lying received the death penalty we would not be in the position we are now in.

    I too am fed up with Carney and his WEF stooges. If he does get in, Canada is doomed. And I believe Albertans will rise up and demand separation from that maple leaf ball and chain. We should take Saskatchewan with us and form a new nation called Saskberta with its capital in Lloydminster. I can also see Quebec separating and other provinces drifting away if people in southern Ontario and southern Quebec elect Carney and all his blarney.

    More Carney lies?, this needs to be vetted;

    Mark Carney claims that AC/DC’s Thunderstruck was his “warm-up tune” in minor hockey — despite being 25 yrs old when it was released.
    To be fair it came after he said he helped Paul Martin balance the budget, though he didn’t start at Finance until 6 yrs later.
    And that was after insisting he didn’t chair Brookfield when it moved its HQ to New York — despite chairing the meeting and signing the appropriate documents.

    Watch Bruce Purdy, law professor at Queens – “Should Alberta Separate?”
    He describes Management law government vs Rule of Law government. Carney definitely wants to manage and control every aspect of our lives.

    I’m a74 yr-old woman (a CF Vet) who lives in Ottawa and cannot bear the thought f the Carney Liberals getting in. I know too much about him & IF he gets elected, then I’m fed up with Canada & Canadians who’d vote for a donkey if it had a Liberal sign hanging around its neck! If Alberta is talking independence – or even 51st State, I’m packing up and moving to Calgary. My son would move his family there, too,if is Korean wife was willing. If Alberta isn’t an option, then I have to hope that Trump will entertain asylum seekers from Canada, because staying here under that globalist climate zealot and EU-fanboy is JUST NOT an option! I cannot BEAR to see what he will do to what remains of m countr!

    I watched Ezra’s show with Separatist Leader Jeffery Rath. First of all I would like to say that I live in Alberta and I too have been feeling if Carney gets elected that I am thinking something I would have thought of as unthinkable a short time ago, that I would be open to separating from the country of Canada. Under the Liberals it is no longer the Canada I was born into, some 60+yrs ago, and grew up in. As a UCP member I follow what our Premier says very closely. She is a person of the people for the people and listens to the people. I receive survey after survey asking for my input and she acts on what the people say. To tell you the truth however Mr. Rath was very disturbing to listen to. With him it sounds very much like his way or the highway, arrogant and a bully in his demeanour, claiming the people only need to be educated to see things his way. We have had enough of those. He claims that our Premier is out of touch with her voter base, that is totally false. I can’t help but use a barnyard analogy, I have watched so many of the reactions since Mr. Trump announced tariffs and as I have watched the reactions, from JT, Carney, Ford and others they remind me of roosters strutting around and Mr. Rath seems to fit right in. I like the cool headed, common sense, intelligent response from our Premier.

    If Alberta separates form Canada they should take the vast part of BC with them. The last BC provincial election showed that the majority of land mass voted conservative. All the conservative areas of BC should separate with Alberta. Leave the lower mainland and Vancouver Island to themselves since they are NDP or liberal.

    Western separatists here we go.

    Before Trudeau, we were gaslighted that Canada has outgrown the monarchy, now we’re gaslighted that the monarchy is evil. Now we’re fed a daily diet of lies and half-truths about colonialism and the treatment of aboriginal people. The masks have come off. God Save The King.

    Regarding Carney’s comments about our relationship moving from the U.S. to other countries.
    Maybe we should start a go fund me campaign to buy him a giant chain saw and a million floats so that he can cut Canada away from the U.S. & float it across the Atlantic to join his homeland in the EU.

    In November of 2019 the Freedom Talk Conference took place in Red Deer. The Conference title was “Meeting the Unity Challenge”. The main topic was Alberta’s future. There were over 350 people in attendance & there were many excellent speakers. Here is a link to the YouTube conference playlist:

    When I first heard about the Western Canada Concept, I thought its members were a bunch of loonies. Now, after Trudeau the Twiced, they were probably ahead of their time.

    Unfortunately, the separatist movement isn’t unified. There was the Wildrose Independence Party, which started a few years ago, but it didn’t seem to do much. Then, from what I gathered, that fragmented into two groups due to infighting.

    Once Carnage wins (and, yes, I’m convinced he will), maybe there’ll be a concerted effort to finally split.

    Rath is lying when he said we are halfway to getting the (300,000) signatures needed for the citizen-initiated referendum. Kenney called him a “traitorous blowhard”, but I would leave it simply as “blowhard”. He is not the man.

    Count me in on separation. Ottawa continues to look down their snooty Laurentian noses at the rest of the country. We have the resources and we can separate. Jeffrey Rath needs to get more exposure on Alberta web sites. Canada has hosed Alberta for 120 years. If Carney gets voted in by Ontario and Quebec, we have no option but to leave.

    And Ezra, let your guest finish his sentences. It’s rude to interrupt.
