Summary

Canadian activists are pushing for Alberta to join the USA as the 51st state, driven by economic woes, political alienation, and threats against free speech. The Alberta 51st State Movement seeks a referendum to leave Canada, join the US, and gain free trade. While 90% of Canadians reject this plan, 10% in these provinces back it – exposing a significant distrust that Canadian citizens have of their government leaders. Amanda Head is a White House Correspondent for Just The News, host of the Furthermore with Amanda Head podcast, and co-host of Just The News, No Noise, airing weekdays at 6PM ET on the Real America’s Voice Network.
