Free Alberta?

[Roger Kettle]

Interesting times in Alberta, Diane! If you join with Scotland, we'll have an Alba/Alberta coalition!

I voted to stay in Canada and said "no" to the other 9 racist and power grabbing questions by our fascist elements.

It has been very stressful, the ballot cost a lot of money (these are the same people who took $200 a month from disabled people this spring) and, looking like we mollycoddle idiots, surely made people reconsider investing or moving here.

Hope we are done with it.

The situation in Alberta can't be compared to the situation in Scotland.

It all sounds rather unpleasant, Diane. The coverage I saw over here gave it an almost humorous feel. Apologies for my lighthearted approach.

I officially now live in the most racist of all the Alberta voting districts.

As an immigrant myself I do feel distressed. Yes we had a very positive vote to remain in Canada but that did not equate to choosing Canadian values in the nasty nine poll questions regarding immigrants, including people even from other provinces, and approval for long term fights with the federal judgement for party politics on things such as denying Albertans dental, prescription coverage and affordable day care, that people in most of the other provinces have benefited from.

You always think "it can't happen here" :-(
