Some Albertans are apparently traitors or quislings and should just move to the USA then, instead of breaking up Canada.

EDIT: .. and they're also clueless idiots. Don't they understand the USA in its present form will NEVER give a new territory full statehood? They'll keep them a disenfranchised territory, like Puerto Rico or Washington DC and then just rape the whole area for its resources and never give disaster aid, etc.

I can only see them treating the first to fall better, if they would want to lure other states in.
