This is 23% support to simply have another referendum (Option 2). That's identical to the % who would vote for separation (23%, same poll). The separatists' strategy to get soft federalists to "send a message" by voting Option 2 is failing. Federalists need to turn out to put the issue to bed.

From a confirmed source within the Calgary Board of Education... Over 1000 kids across Calgary are being denied an education. Because of UCP changes to the Education Act, over 1000 kids are being denied an education because of delays in immigration processing. Over 1000.

The separatists have released their "transition plan". And the whole plan is predicated on a spring binding referendum. Hey, remember how Smith was recently asked if she would change the law AGAIN to allow for a binding referendum during the blackout period? Weird, that.

If oil prices remain at current levels for the next 12 months, the Canadian oil industry is on track to make $90bn in profits, which is $60bn more than it would have earned without the war...Applying 15% rate on excess profits of oil industry could generate $9 billion over the next 12 months. ⬇️

The only thing you should need to prove citizenship is a birth certificate or a Canadian passport. So either the UCP lied to us (which would be no surprise) or this is the consequence of allowing privatized registries (and DON'T let them keep your documents!) to vet citizenship. #ableg #abpoli

File this under scaling new heights of hypocrisy, Ric McIver encouraging people to get a mail in ballot. He was the minister who eliminated tabulators and tightened voter ID rules based on no evidence. The long line ups, and astronomical cost of the referendum to taxpayers are on him.

Legislative Assemby Speaker and Calgary-Hays UCP MLA Ric McIver is one of the few conservative politicians I’ve noticed who is encouraging Albertans to apply for a mail in ballot to avoid any long lines on October 19. Along with a link to the Elections Alberta website, McIver posted his plea on LinkedIn:

That is where I will get my mail in ballot to vote to keep Alberta in Canada.
You should too. All eligible voters can use the mail in ballot so do it now.
Remember, the vast majority of Alberta people want to remain in Canada.
So, the only way to lose is to not vote.

Do not do that.
