Alberta Could Join the U.S.A.?

The Canadian province of Alberta recently took the initial steps toward becoming eligible to join the United States of North America Alliance. Three hundred thousand Albertans signed a petition to begin the process of leaving the Canadian union. If Canada were to leave the Canadian federation and join the United States Union that would partly fulfill President Trump’s idea of making America great again.

The move by Albertans to investigate the matter formally by placing on the ballot October 19th, thanks to a demographically qualifying petition the question; “Should Alberta remain a province of Canada or should the Government of Alberta commence the legal process required under the Canadian Constitution to hold a binding provincial referendum on whether or not Alberta should separate from Canada?” was a real surprise to me. I thought the five-million land-locked Albertans were happy drinking Molson’s and watching hockey.

Alberta borders Montana. If Alberta quits the Canadian Federation it is likely Saskatchewan and British Columbia would follow suit to quit Canada and join with Alberta to make a northwest superstate with Alaska. The Canadian rump state probably would evolve more toward the French side of its identity and reorganize itself as New France. French President Macaroni would like that.

The next twenty years could be good ones for the northwest superstate without costly, retarding border barriers slowing development in sundry ways as Arctic and North Pacific trade routes scale up when the Ukraine-Russia burns itself out. Fast trains from Alberta to Pacific ports and direct ocean routes to Nome freight staging areas for Europe may move faster in the warmer times of global warming that may lie ahead.
