“The Alberta Independence petitions are now in the hands of Elections Alberta.
A lot of people are asking what happens next.
Because of the temporary court stay, the signatures currently sit sealed while the court decides whether the counting process can proceed.
And that court process matters.
For many Albertans, this is exactly the problem.
A Liberal-appointed judge now has the power to delay or block a democratic process supported by over 300,000 Albertans.
This is exactly why the independence movement exists:
Albertans are tired of having their future decided by people and institutions that do not share their values.
If cleared, Elections Alberta can verify the signatures and the question can move toward the October 19 referendum:
“Do you agree that the Province of Alberta shall cease to be part of Canada and become an independent state?”
But if the court blocks the process, the democratic demand does not disappear.
The pressure shifts directly back to Premier Danielle Smith.
The Premier can call a referendum at any time. And with 301,620 Albertans signing the petition, the clear democratic will of the people has already been demonstrated.
Politically, she also has to face reality inside her own party.
The majority of the UCP base supports Alberta independence. If the court blocks the petition and the Premier refuses to act, she risks tearing apart the very coalition that keeps the UCP together.
Either Albertans are allowed to vote through this process, or the Premier must call the referendum herself.
The independence movement is not going away.
One way or another, Alberta is heading toward a referendum.”

I don't like the sound of this. Keith says the polls show 60% of Albertans are STRONGLY opposed to independance. Strongly opposed are strong words. I am thinking it means extremely hard to almost impossible to change the minds of? Yep lots of work ahead...
NOW you’re talking. Finally someone who makes sense.

Conservatives are pushing to safeguard Canadians’ access to physical cash while moving to permanently block the creation of a central bank digital currency, arguing that financial privacy and reliability are at risk in an increasingly digital economy.
Conservative MP Ted Falk introduced the Framework on the Access to and Use of Cash Act in Ottawa, a private members’ bill that would require the federal government to formally protect access to cash and prevent the Bank of Canada from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC).
“Cash is freedom — it is private, reliable, and you don’t need an app or computer to use it,” Falk said. “Canadian customers should always have the option to use it.”
The proposed legislation would direct the Minister of Finance to establish a national framework ensuring Canadians can still withdraw and deposit physical cash, while also supporting the long-term viability of cash infrastructure across the ...
