Dennis L Modry MD, is co-founder and Chairman of the Alberta Prosperity Society and ProjectLet’s clear this up once and for all: Alberta is not just a province — it’s a full-blown personality. And no, it doesn’t need therapy. It needs independence from federal corruption, subjugation, domination and exploitation.In 2015, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau — without any functioning neurons — proudly announced that “Canada has no core identity,” as he stared aimlessly into the abyss of stupidity. Translation: Canada is basically a beige cardigan — comfortable, non-threatening, and completely forgettable. Just like he is. A “post-national state,” he called it. Sounds like something you’d say when your country has lost its history, purpose, passport and its pride.Enter Mark Carney — the unelected would-be eco-emperor — who believes Western civilization is “morally rotten,” that capitalism is destroying the world, and that Alberta’s economy should be shoved into a locked closet and replaced with tofu-powered scooters and centralized bank credits. His prescription? Clamp down on oil, gas, farming, ranching, banking, breathing… basically everything Alberta is good at. All while sipping kombucha at the WEF with the rest of the unelected finger-waggers..Then there’s Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet, who said: “We have a nation, a language, a culture… we’re not like Alberta.” He’s right — and we’re not like Quebec. We don’t need bailouts, language police, or a department of dairy supply-chain metaphysics to feel valid. And unlike Quebec, we actually like paying for things ourselves.Let’s be perfectly blunt: Alberta has a language, a heritage and a culture — and it doesn’t need a permission slip from Ottawa or Montreal to say so.Our Language: It’s English. Plain, direct, and unapologetically clear. We don’t need to “dialogue” or “centre diverse lived experiences” to say what we mean. In a sovereign Alberta, English will be the official language, spoken fluently in boardrooms, barns, and backcountry bars alike.Our Heritage:It’s built on grit. First Nations, farmers, ranchers, and immigrants stared down droughts, blizzards and federal policy blunders — and decided to stick around anyway. Our great-grandparents made it work with a pickaxe, a prayer, and the belief that tomorrow would be better. That’s Alberta’s DNA. Yet Ottawa wants to mRNA Albertans into perpetual subservience to its lying, cheating, robbing governance. We won’t tolerate it anymore.Our Culture: Albertans are self-reliant, freedom-loving, and allergic to bureaucracy. We believe in personal responsibility — not government babysitting. We don’t worship at the altar of regulation. And when someone in Ottawa says, “You can’t do that,” our immediate response is: “Watch us,” as Premier Smith has opined..We build. We drill. We feed. We invent. We don’t sit around waiting for a federal transfer payment to tell us who we are. And unlike some parts of the country, we know where bacon comes from — and we can shoot it ourselves.Albertans don’t just value freedom — we expect it.We don’t just tolerate family and faith — we honour them.And we’re not waiting for Ottawa or Quebec to tell us who we are — we already know.Alberta is unique. Not in the fragile, feelings-based way that needs validation from the CBC, but in the gritty, grown-up, prairie-proven way that built barns, businesses and billion-dollar industries out of dirt with brains, brawn and determination..Alberta’s sovereign culture will be protected from federal ideological vandalism disguised as policy.English will be the official language of governance, commerce and cowboy poetry slams.Federal overreach will not just be resisted with every peaceful tool available — lawsuits, legislation, and, when necessary, strongly worded tweets — but eliminated altogether.Alberta’s future will be shaped by Albertans, not by clipboard-wielding federal appointees who get nosebleeds crossing the Manitoba border.Alberta sovereignty. Sunny days are on the horizon — 2026.Alberta doesn’t need to explain itself to people who think propane is a hate crime. We know who we are. And we’re not just ready to chart our own course — we’ve already packed the truck, filled the tank, and brought snacks for the ride.We are Alberta. We have a language, a culture, and a backbone.And we’re not backing down.Dennis L Modry, MD is co-founder and Chairman of the Alberta Prosperity Society and Project
