Let’s see if you’ve heard this one before: there’s a Trudeau in
the Prime Minister’s Office and he’s angered a lot of Albertans and the
oilpatch. Alienation and resentment fester, triggering separatist
sentiment.  

You’d be forgiven for thinking it’s 1980 and not 2019.

In
1980, there were no Liberal MPs from Alberta, Saskatchewan or B.C. in
Ottawa, and a separatist actually won a provincial seat in an Alberta
byelection (but lost it within months).
