Alberta's Separation Cost Study

Alberta’s government has launched a bold, multi-layered investigation into the financial realities of separation from Canada, sparking debate across political spectrums. Led by the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy under Martha Hall Findlay, the project promises an independent, evidence-based report — but with a twist: a high-profile panel, including Jack Mintz and Ted Morton, will review and offer their own assessment, ensuring diverse perspectives. Critics worry the panel’s makeup may tilt the findings, while separatists question if their views are truly being heard. The government hopes the analysis will reveal sobering costs — potentially persuading advocates to rethink separation. This isn’t just about numbers; it’s about transparency, accountability, and whether Albertans are ready to face the true price of independence.
