Time for revolution in the People's Republic of Alberta

What other choice do we have? HT

It will take a more than a few disgruntled landowners to have a revolution as well. I know of many long time active PC's that are working hard to change the political landscape.

With some courage and fighting spirit on your side you can achieve great things - it's too bad modern Canadians don't believe or can't envisage the impact they could have.
The difference for us Europeans is we have grown up seeing democracy working, people power working... I well remember listening to the radio as Lech Walesa took on the might of the Soviet block when he was in the Gdansk Shipyard as a Union leader. I remember the growing movement of people risking their lives that eventually led to the Berlin wall crumbling. I remember Mrs Thatcher dispatching the British forces to the Falkland Islands to repel the invading Argentinians with almost no support in the worldwide political community. A huge logistical feat given the extreme distance and statistically small armed forces we had compared to Argentine.

With a "can do" attitude and right on your side there is nothing you can't achieve. It would not be difficult to put enough pressure on this PC Government to cause them to reverse this legislation - all it takes is enough media attention on what are un-defendable laws, once the defections to the Wild Rose increase the Government would crumble.
This is winnable - can Albertan's be bothered though?
