What happens to land prices during western separation(or not)?

I never thought a flunky drama teacher would lead Canada to !

Exactly. How many of the folks so certain that the status quo will exist indefinitely saw that we would be led by an incompetent puppet as of 2019, or the US by a mentally unstable reality TV star, or Brexit, or the break up of the Soviet Union, or that our tax dollars would go to fight increased plant food, or the associated yield benefits that losing war has resulted in worldwide, or that the US would be energy self sufficient, or saw the commodity boom and bust coming, and prepared for them, or saw the rise and fall of the tech bubble, or crypto currencies and positioned themselves accordingly?

And it is laughable how many posts there are about how bad it is in Canada. If this is bad, you guys need to read about or visit some developing countries and see what bad really is.

Typical socialist attitude. We aren't as bad as Burkina Faso yet, so we just need some more socialism until you can get us all drug down to their level. Never aspire to improve, or be better, always about the equal distribution of poverty. And when you succeed in ruining our prosperity and our GDP equals Burkina Faso, who is going to be able to send aid to Burkina Faso?

Acres don't vote though, people do. Even if 90% of the land area is inhabited by people who want to separate but the other 10% contains 80% of the population and the vote you'll never get a majority in favour. That's the situation.

You assume that people don't have a breaking point? You assume that people will continue to respect the rule of law and the democratic process even after accepting that they are clearly not designed in their favour, especially after destroying their livelihoods? Or that the Americans will not reach a breaking point where they will no longer tolerate a country on their northern border openly mocking their values and institutions, welcoming known terrorists, cosying up to, and trading with their enemies, creeping ever closer to socialism/communism? And you think the ROC has any means to stop either movement?

Farmers and Agriculture are becoming even less meaningless then the west is to central Canada. All of the land of Canada is owned by Queen Elizabeth. You own nothing. The Canadian Act has no provision for any Canadian to own physical land in Canada. You only own an interest in an estate, so go ahead and surmise what your value is in that. 9.7% of Canada is privately owned, while the rest is Crown land. The Queen is the head of the state.

Alberta5, where is your Agricultural War Room? The Sky Palace?

I get the impression we aren't even discussing the same issue.

I'm concerned about how the fallout of a separation movement, regardless of outcome will affect our largest investment. Will we be collateral damage, or can we benefit from it?

There is significant support for separation, it is all anyone is talking about around here. Liberals will never admit it, but will continue to inflame it. I bet well over majority in 90% of B.C. (excluding Vancouver, V Island, NDP hippies in northern West Coast), AB and Sask. No idea on Manitoba.

Yeah Chuck, I don't wake up every morning and be happy Canada is not like Somalia. That's small thinking. Instead I look to what Canada could be and not living up to its potential from backward thinking and weak leadership.

Lets look to the US example, farmland in the Mississippi area. The land values aren't high because they grow better crops than us. The land values are high because US capital has developed the area with infrastructure that then drew in other forms of wealth. The same thing will happen if the US is allowed in here.

Just look at our north. Poor, low population, no infrastructure. Then look at Alaska. That's what American capital can do. Canada is capital poor and what we do string together always goes to buy off voters down east.

Chuck like your support for the CWB you're so out of touch with reality it isn't even funny.

If the shit head wins things are going to change real fast. Wealthy and poor alike can't stand or take Trudeau and Quebec corruption. ITs a sickness that has happened since France lost.

It will happen and a negotiated deal with the USA, not joining but working together for both parties interest.

Grass you have no clue about the history of Canada.

This shit of Screw the west has happened since time began and the wealth has always been here. The only problem is we were part of Canada and not the USA.

The East elites hate us.

It's not just an attitude of a few western Canadians it a majority in thinking now.

Trudeau wins Alberta Sask and Manitoba and parts of Ontario and Bc will join and create something. Canada has failed and will change. It's going to happen.
