When you allow far right attitudes to grow … they are like weeds that start appearing everywhere.

My general rule of thumb is … if one’s ideals and beliefs start affecting the lives of others … then their beliefs are not about them, they believe in wanting to control the lives of others.

      I can understand the sentiment but it should be understood that the ultimate goal of Take Back Alberta is to have Alberta join the USA as a state. The last thing we should be doing to counter them is closing our borders and hearts to our siblings in Alberta.

      As someone living in Calgary, please don’t make it harder to leave when I can eventually afford to.

      As much as conservatism is a cancer Alberta is showing signs of becoming more progressive. As the boomers drop off and Gen z/millennials continue to reject conservatism as a whole I believe Alberta has a real chance. Don’t forget the goal of take back Alberta is to get Canadians to hate Alberta and eventually have them join the USA as a state. They are traitors to Canada and Albertans.
