OTTAWA - In the wake of Liberal MP David McGuinty's anti-Alberta comments this week, a 2010 interview with Liberal leadership hopeful Justin Trudeau raises the issue about whether that attitude is baked into the DNA of the federal Liberal party.

In November 2010, Trudeau told a Quebec television show that he was tired of Albertans running the country and that, whether it was Jean Chretien or Brian Mulroney, Canada is better off when Quebecers are running the country.

"Canada isn't doing well right now because it's Albertans who control our community and socio-democratic agenda. It doesn't work," Trudeau said in French to interviewer Patrick Lagace on the Tele-Quebec program Les francs-tireurs (The Straight Shooters).

With talk like that Alberta will be having a referendum if it wants to stay in Canada and continue to support the east, and the difference is.. Alberta does not need Canada, Quebec with all it's free give away's does and will never separate because it's a leach of a Province.

I find it hilarious that those on the right had no problem when Romney did this but criticize Trudeau while those on the left criticized Romney and will, no doubt, have no problems with Trudeau.

No, Romney said one thing to Massachusettsans as a state politician and something completely different to Republicans in the Primary and then backpedaled when he campaigned for President. Politicians always say what their audience want to hear. I just get a kick out of how some people attack the other guy but defend it or ignore it when their guy does it.

Quebec complains about Alberta all the time and they trot out the PQ every now and then.
Alberta complains about Quebec and now they threaten in little circles to have a vote and
leave.
Both Provinces are children at heart, both have ego's bigger than all out doors and nothing
will change in time the rest of us cast our eyes up and roll them every now and then and
leave it alone.

I read the article and two things stood out. The statement that it was taken out of context and that it comes from SUN whose MO is taking things out of context for shock effect. When I read what Justin said, the inflection I got was that of the popular saying, "You just got owned". I doubt Trudeau is that stupid. It just looks to me like more of SUN's sensationalizing nonsense. But some people eat that crap as a steady diet.

They might get a few seats in the west. The idea that Alberta would separate is laughable. That idea has no traction here.

A lot of our right leaning members were anti-Romney. I don't think you can just label it one way or the next. I'm pretty left leaning but if that's his starting point, I doubt I'd be casting a vote that helps Trudeau's cause.

Well they don't say anything, pretty much literally, before they reach that magic and ridiculously low number of years of service.

They may be idiots but they're not stupid.

You're a babbling fool, Boomer. You sound exactly like a Bloc idiot. Also, you do not support me in any way or manner, so STFU with you claiming to support the "east" on your Janitor wage.

Or what the rest of Canada thinks for that matter? It's a different country now.

Clearly Boomer is in his own fantasy world. You probably couldn't fill a Greyhound bus with every hard core Alberta separatist. If you clicked on the link to the Alberta Separatist party, you would see that they haven't even made a press release since 2005....a real happening bunch those guys are.

Sun News : EXCLUSIVE: Trudeau says Canada belongs to Quebec

Trudeau Jr. shooting for NDP country as the official opposition? That might happen with
his foot in his mouth like the example above. Alberta isn't going to separate, nor are
Manitoba or Saskatchewan....BC is the only western province with coastline and
access to non-USA markets....& I can't see them separating anytime soon either.

The West isn't going to separate from the East, as even the western provinces
squabble with each other (recent pipeline royalty B.S. between Alberta & BC for
example) too much to unify beyond economic benefit and mutual disappointment
in federal politics much of the time.

Quebec might eventuially seperate, but carefull what you wish for Quebec, 'cuz
you just might get it.

The OP is just an example as to why, even with all their warts & blemishes, we
can expect Conservative Gov'ts for the foreseeable future. I doubt many here
don't want to hear this, but look at the current options folks.

Not sure but they aren't separatists as much as they are white supremacists. Section 2.12.1 of their constitution says "We believe in the preservation of Alberta's heritage". Alberta has seen dramatic changes in the last 60 years. I'm not sure what these folks think our "heritage" is but I can take a guess...nudge nudge wink wink.
