#cdnpoli I live in Alberta and donated to Bruce Fanjoy's campaign to win Carleton from Pierre Poilievre. Out of the blue I just got a phone call from Bruce Fanjoy thanking me for my support. That's how you do politics. By the way, Carleton, you chose a great guy as your new MP.

Anyone advocating for Alberta separation from Canada, especially Danielle Smith and Alberta legislature, should pack their bags and renounce their citizenship. They can leave but the land will stay. The land belongs to First Nations and the treaties are with the Crown. #cdnpoli #AlbertaSeparation
First Nations’ Chiefs say that treaties that cover Alberta pre-date the province’s entry into Confederation and they are vowing that any efforts at Alberta separation “will be met with their full opposition.”
