The federal carbon tax increased by 23% on April 1, 2024. This increase is part of a long-term strategy to address climate change.
The myth that an Independent Alberta will be economically unviable because it’s landlocked is false.
1. We are policy-locked by Ottawa, not geography
2. Direct leverage: if BC blocks our pipes, we can block their exports
3. The U.S. is ready to partner on direct routes to the coast
4. We gain the protected international right to reach the sea
5. We sign our own trade deals & bypass federal tariffs
6. US ready to entertain an Alberta-only Free Trade Deal
The reality is that the best way to stay “landlocked” is to remain in a Canada governed by ideological extremists driven to keep our $14 trillion in resources trapped in the ground.
Independence is the only way to eliminate that red tape and finally get Alberta moving.
