Make Saskatchewan the 51st State

It makes me wonder if any of these comments gets anyone's attention.

Over a third of the population NDP.
Regarding Ottawa, over half our population here aren't blinking an eye.

That's why it's never going to happen by referendum. And no career politician is ever going to risk their career to save us from ourselves.

This whole election coming up in Canada 1st or liberal east and Sask and Alberta negotiate becoming Buffalo or whatever ever and we join.

I personally am done being Canadian and have zero interest in staying in French-run Canada.

Whose taxpayers dollars paid for the railway to populate and make Sask a province in the first place.?

That argument died in 1993 when the Crow Rate subsidy was abolished.

It's not even an argument at all.
Tax dollars building the railroad?

According to google Ai CN was own by the crown from 1919 to 1995.

Canadian National Railway (CN), formerly a Crown corporation, was privatized in 1995 and is no longer owned by the Crown. The privatization of CN allowed for greater foreign investment in the company, with an estimated 80 to 90 percent of CN shares held by Americans.

I wonder is CN is going to get shut down like the Canadian brewery’s product list getting trimmed. .

When Ottawa is OK with killing our economy for Quebec dairy and some crazy battery idea, I think its best we find other leadership

Tax dollars finished the pipeline so Alberta can ship more oil west .Smith may forget that.Last time Alberta threw the idea of separatism Billions of pension funds got pulled from Alberta.No one wants to invest in an unstable atmosphere like Russia.

So was it a good thing that tax payers money finished that pipeline?

Of course it was.Important to the Canadian economy .Just makes me laugh Smith talking like Alberta owns the oil .That would be like the RMs with oil telling the province and the RMs without oil we control the province a you do as we say .Do not think Moe has any oil for miles around him.
