We reported on Alberta separatist groups in 2004. They're echoing the same concerns today.
On the Trail of Alberta Separatists: From the Archive by Joe Obad March/April 2004. A black and white photo of three people posing in front of a trailer with a banner strung across it. the banner reads "Western Canada Concept will FREE THE WEST." A sign also sits on the trailer reading "FREE the WEST! with a petition for a referendum for independence. Sign up here!"
