‘Is Maxine Bernier correct that a successful vote for Alberta sovereignty could result in serious concessions from Ottawa? Perhaps not.’
Western Standard Guest Columnist
Dr. Dennis L. Modry is Chairman of the Alberta Prosperity Society and Project
I have a lot of respect for Mr. Bernier, whom I have met on a few occasions. He is correct in supporting Alberta sovereignty and has long advocated for a massive devolution of power and control from the federal government to the provinces.
He recognizes that Canada is just as diverse in its varied regions as it is in culture and endowed natural resources. He believes that these differences should be celebrated and not homogenized into a WEF globalist dystopian nirvana where there is no unique culture, as promulgated by former Prime Minister Trudeau and seemingly embraced by Mr. Carney — ‘Vive la différence,’ implies Mr. Bernier!
In essence, he is saying — let us celebrate our unique differences and use those differences to advance freedom and prosperity throughout Canada. And I agree with him.
However, is it possible to negotiate meaningful concessions from Ottawa that would satisfy Albertans’ hunger for self-determination free from Ottawa’s subjugation, domination, exploitation and wealth usurpation because of a successful referendum on Alberta sovereignty?
The answer is yes, but perhaps not in the way Mr. Bernier might think.
