More novel research. Albertaโ€™s populist/separatist fringe has more in common with the early prairie communists than it does with Conservative thinking. They donโ€™t belong in either the UCP or the CPC. hssh3.journals.yorku.ca/index.php/hs...

Il fut des plus significatif de voir Sa Majestรฉ le Roi recevoir en audience, en ce jour, des reprรฉsentants des peuples autochtones du Canada, rรฉaffirmant ainsi les liens durables qui unissent la Couronne aux Premiers Peuples de cette terre.

So many of you are asking how to sign this โ€œCanadian Foreverโ€ petition.

Elections Alberta must first validate this petition. It will take few days.

We will be launching a campaign shortly. Stay tuned.

Itโ€™s a lot of work, but Canada is worth every bit of it.

Going through book I wrote 20 years ago to retrieve research I did then on Albertaโ€™s links to Fathers of Confederation. I am now researching that time the Americans tried to steal our water โ€” when Alberta was part of the NWT โ€”because they thought Canada would never be settled and wouldnโ€™t notice.
