I am like Elizabeth, I don't know how people are affording this MASSIVE inflation and carbon taxes. They can't raise wages because that in turn raises costs to consumers and I'm afraid there is just not much more things can increase without putting a large portion of society into abject poverty. The Conservatives getting into power will do little to help simply because they need the revenue to service the astronomical interest on the debt load the Liberals have hoisted upon Canadians due to their lavish spending.

Below is how a Bernays-style campaign would likely be constructed, based on his writings (Propaganda, Crystallizing Public Opinion) and historical practice. This is analysis, not advocacy.
1. Reframe the Issue (Change the Question)
Bernays believed people don’t respond to facts; they respond to symbols and identity.
So the campaign would avoid:
“Should Alberta separate from Canada?”
And replace it with:
“Who gets to decide Alberta’s future?”
“Is Alberta being treated fairly?”
“What does self-respect look like for a province?”
Independence becomes a by-product of a deeper moral frame: dignity, autonomy, maturity.
2. Create an Emotional Myth (Not a Policy Case)
Bernays used myths the way advertisers use brands.
The myth here might be:
“The Frontier Steward”
Alberta as the responsible provider—hard-working, resource-rich, ...
