ALBERTA REFERENDUM 2026

Dear Calgarians and all Albertans who are still weighing the facts,

It's time to put aside partisan politics and have an honest conversation about Alberta's future.

Many Canadians, along with respected thinkers around the world, believe Canada has moved away from the principles that helped make it prosperous: independence, personal responsibility, opportunity, self-determination, and limited government.

Many Albertans share these concerns and feel the province is increasingly overtaxed, overregulated, and underrepresented. They also see that Alberta contributes a disproportionate share of its wealth to Ottawa and other provinces while having too little influence over federal and interprovincial decisions that directly affect Alberta's families, workers, businesses, and future prosperity.

The 'Milking of the West' political cartoon (December 15, 1915). A cow stands between Western and Eastern Canada. Men in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba pitch hay to feed the cow, while well-dressed men in top hats on the Eastern Canada side milk it into buckets labeled with their interests, illustrating the idea that the West produces wealth while Eastern elites benefit from it.

The Milking of the West, December 15, 1915

THERE IS ANOTHER PATH: ALBERTA INDEPENDENCE

Alberta has the talent, grit, resources, and determination to build on what made us successful and succeed as a country of our own.

The question is not whether Alberta can prosper as an independent country, but whether Albertans should have the freedom and courage to choose their own future for themselves, their families, and future generations.

Kind regards,

Our Vision for a Free Alberta

We believe in a future where Albertans are governed by their own sovereign will, not by increasingly distant global political interests. Our vision is a free and prosperous nation built on individual liberty, modern democratic accountability, and a clear separation of powers that puts more authority in the hands of citizens. We believe Albertans should keep more of their hard-earned income, young families should be able to afford a home, and Alberta's resources should be managed first and foremost for the benefit and prosperity of Albertans. Above all, we believe every citizen should have a meaningful voice in determining our collective future.
