    Interesting. Really hedging their bets on oil, gas and coal remaining a dominant industry over the long term huh? Not exactly a bet I would personally take but if they wanna go it’s their funeral.

    I have a feeling that Russia has been promoting this bullshit.

    Same as with Greenland. First sow the propaganda, let it stew for a few years so there’ll be a population online of any given locals that actually bought the bullshit. Usually very vocal teenagers who think they’re being smart or something, but are actually lending credibility to Russian propaganda.

    Then if and when it gets to the point there’s enough internal conflict… it can end up like Ukraine.

    Although obviously that’s not as likely with Greenland or Alberta, they’re not out of reach of Russia, surely.

    Danielle Smith should be more independent and just leave. She does not need to take any of our good citizens with her.

    A large majority

    25 to 30%

    So really, a large minority then.

    Edit: I am confused indeed.
