@markusoff.bsky.social:
That petition drive for a non-binding referendum for Alberta to STAY in Canada is now verified.
One in 7 Alberta voters signed it.
Wow, did Lukaszuk’s bid worked. Lessee how Danielle Smith gov handles it.
@mgrasdal.bsky.social:
How will Smith’s government handle it? Like they do everything of consequence: badly.
mandalamushroom.bsky.social:
400 000+ signed the petition. That’s a significant sign that the vast majority of Albertans identify as Canadian. Compare that to the grumpy 4000 UCP members at their AGM crying out for independence and funded by MAGA operatives. It’s not independence they want; it’s to fracture Canada.
and the reason for the yellow vester turned Fucker Trucker invasions funded by you know who and USA dark money:
Forever Canadian Email from Thomas Lukaszuk, Dec 1, 2025:
Dear Jessica,
I have just been informed by Elections Alberta that our Forever Canadian
petition has successfully met the requirements of the /Citizen Initiative Act/,
and that the Chief Electoral Officer has submitted a copy of our proposal to the
Speaker of the Legislature!
I want to extend a heartfelt congratulations and thank you for your support,
mobilization and for fighting for Alberta’s future in Canada. This is your
victory, and would not have been possible without each and every one of you.
Many of you watched the cheers for separation and the audible boos for Canadian
unity from within the governing party’s ranks, and felt knots of anxiety.
Following today’s victory with Elections Alberta, the ball is now in the
Premier’s court to do the right thing and act on the path that we have offered
her by resolving this matter in the Legislature, avoiding further division and
economic harm to our province.
However, it appears that the Premier intends to force a referendum. I want you to take a deep breath. Do not be afraid.
We Are ReadySince the petition drive ended, the Forever Canadian team has been hard at work
behind the scenes, pivoting this movement from the signature-collection phase to
the next critical phase: fighting for Canada. We have been preparing our battle
plans, developing our legal and communications strategies, and meeting with officials in Ottawa to ensure Alberta’s voice for unity is heard at the highest
levels. I do not trust Mark Carney or any of his traitorous staff, MPs. He’s proven himself a liar, a fraud, a con not a liberal, and on Team Trump & Danielle Smith. I bet Carney wants and will work to make Forever Canadian’s Petition to fail. Do not trust him, or any of his ilk.
We are organized, we are resilient, and we are ready.
Now, we need YOU to step up and get ready to do your part to fight for Alberta’s future in Canada.
The Next Phase Requires ResolveThe battle is just beginning. Our success with Elections Alberta positions us to
deliver the final democratic blow to the separatist agenda by voting that
Alberta should remain in Canada.
To win this next phase—which involves intensive province-wide engagement and
campaigning—we need to maintain the Forever Canadian momentum.
This is where we need your help today:

the community wearing your Forever Canadian gear you become a visible

ForeverCanadian pride.

[lberta did it! Bravo! #ElectionsAlberta has verified the #ForeverCanadian #Petition campaign.
The #Smith government has 2 options for handling the Proposal:
~a free vote in the Legislature or
~a province-wide referendum.
Consensus is SMITH will do a province wide referendum as a Separatist
‘Forever Canadian’ petition verified as successful by Elections Alberta, About 13.6% of electors signed petition by CBC News, Dec 01, 2025
A citizen initiative petition to make it official policy for Alberta to stay in Canada has been verified as successful by Elections Alberta.
The Alberta Forever Canada petition, also known as the “Forever Canadian” petition, needed 293,976 signatures to be successful. Elections Alberta said the petition had 438,568 valid signatures counted and 404,293 verified signatures after a random statistical sampling method was applied with a 95 per cent confidence level.
The Forever Canadian petition was launched to counter Alberta separatists who want a referendum on the province’s independence.
The petition, launched by former deputy premier Thomas Lukaszuk asks: “Do you agree that Alberta should remain within Canada?”
Elections Alberta said it’s estimated about 13.6 per cent of electors in the province signed the petition.
While the petition could trigger a referendum, Lukaszuk has previously said that his goal is to have Premier Danielle Smith call the petition’s question in the legislature and have MLAs vote on it.
A copy of the petition’s policy proposal was submitted Monday to the Speaker of the legislature, Elections Alberta said in a news release.
Elections Alberta said since the legislature is sitting, legislation requires the Speaker to bring the proposal before the assembly and within 10 sitting days, the government will have the proposal referred to a legislative committee.
The committee can either table a report on the policy proposal or table a report recommending it go to a referendum.
If a referendum is recommended, it must be held on or before the fixed date of the next provincial general election, which is Oct. 18, 2027.

LisaB is grinning cheekily over her coffee somewhere right now.
@mllp1962.bsky.social:
The “and” here is puzzling. Has this writer not figured out Smith is a separatsist? A bit slow, if they haven’t.
She’s playing one of her games, she is not pro-Canada.
Danielle Smith and the Alberta separatists gather in the UCP tent
@kericrewsonmd.medsky.social:
Update on the recall application of Danielle Smith. If you live in her riding, you can sign up to be an official canvasser and help usher her to the curb.
@calgarycanuck.bsky.social:
Neglect of duty, misuse of office and incompetence perfectly describes Danielle Smith and the UCP and that is why I support the recall.
@manaboutcowtown.bsky.social:
As Danielle Smith continues to state that unions are behind all the recall efforts against her party could the media at least ask her for any evidence she has to say that? The Alberta Federation of Labout has released a statement specifically saying it is not involved.Smith also lyingingly yammers on about foreign interference being behind the recalls. Idiot
@everyripple.bsky.social:
Danielle Smith, Alberta’s homophobic, union-busting, climate-killing premier, facing 14 democratic recall petitions against her cabinet,
— is NOW talking about RIGGING the RECALL PROCESS to stop citizens from interfering with her “work” pillaging Alberta & the planet
@thebreakdownab.bsky.social:
WOW!
Smith really is rattled about recall!
Despite the gofundme myth being debunked & even unions making it clear they aren’t organizing anything, Smith announced that she’s looking at ways to make recall rules less accessible! You know, the recall rules she just re-wrote
@ctvnewscalgary.bsky.social
jennyyeremiy.bsky.social:
Participate before it’s taken away from us, just like our charter rights and freedoms.
I bet Smith is busy with Trump and Carney lawyers working on how to quash Lukaszuk’s Forever Canadian petition, and turn it into a separatist tool.
