The answer is contained in the question.Who in their right mind
Kinda like the Confedruts who claim to be good Americans. Or every person in history who ever said "I'm not a racist, but. . ."

I would not worry about it. Wexit will collapse soon enough. Their leader is a failed ex-cop, with no answers to problems of Western alienation. He will be exposed, and replaced by a party that is more in touch with Canadians, and certainly more moderate.

Actually, history is written by everybody.History is written by the victors.
Precisely. And they write histories too.I would wager that there are those that feel very differently
There are no permanent histories, and there are no permanent victors. I'm sure (because we actually HAVE the histories written at the time) that the Greeks and Romans wrote histories about how frickin' awesome they were. Later histories were somewhat less complimentary.Agreed on all points, however, in terms of the popular and generally accepted version of events (especially prior to internet distribution capabilities), by in large there is far less acceptance or open-mindedness to the alternative histories.
Just an observation
Wexit is composed of a bunch of shady characters that have no real answers for the dilemmas of Western Canadians.
They do not pose a significant threat, and will likely die out soon enough.
Who knows who the leader will be ? Who knows who their candidates will be ? It will be interesting .I would not worry about it. Wexit will collapse soon enough. Their leader is a failed ex-cop, with no answers to problems of Western alienation. He will be exposed, and replaced by a party that is more in touch with Canadians, and certainly more moderate.
Have you tried girding your loins, spitting on your hands, and getting stuck in?Do you have the answers to the dilemmas of Western Canada?
There leadership has not yet evolved . If the population is in favour they will organize properly soon enough .If Wexit continues with the same leadership, they may receive 1% of the vote in Western Canada. The PPC was better organized, and they received less than 2% of the popular vote.
The people that think Wexit is a serious threat come election time, have obviously never been to their rallies, or researched the leadership.
So far it is just a protest movement. But it should make the eastern establishment sit up and take notice.I would not worry about it. Wexit will collapse soon enough. Their leader is a failed ex-cop, with no answers to problems of Western alienation. He will be exposed, and replaced by a party that is more in touch with Canadians, and certainly more moderate.
I do.Do you have the answers to the dilemmas of Western Canada?
We'll see come the next Fed election

I do.
Developed our resource industries. Ship to whoever pays the most. Current laws essentially prevent the construction of refineries, steel mills or much of anything else inBC. Fix that little problem and the West will thrive and continue carrying Ontariowe and Quebec.
If nothing else they will get the protest vote, much like Reform did in the early years. At that time there was no real difference between the conservative party and the liberal party. Both were totally interested in Toronto and Quebec.Wexit is composed of a bunch of shady characters that have no real answers for the dilemmas of Western Canadians.
