Our Conservative Party keeps losing because they pick untenable and unpopular leaders.

Alberta is a very conservative province.

The Premier of Alberta decided to hold a referendum to have a referendum to separate because risking our country while another tries to annex us is a good idea for scoring political points and trying to get leverage.

This was pitched as a protest vote like brexit, with a large large dose of foreign interference from the United States.
