Thousands demand an independent Alberta, is Canada on the brink of breaking apart?

Alberta separation is gaining momentum as frustration grows among many Albertans who feel left out of national decisions, especially after another federal Liberal win. Once-proud Canadians like Katheryn Speck are now backing rallies for Alberta’s independence. With Premier Danielle Smith proposing easier referendum rules and anger rising over blocked pipelines and energy policies, talks of separation are heating up. Protesters say Ottawa ignores Alberta’s economy, while Indigenous leaders warn of treaty violations.
