Bill C-5, NATO, and Alberta Separation: Is Canada Quietly Rewriting Itself? | Citizen 058
from CTZN | David Craig | Jeremy Prest · host Return to Reason
In this episode of Citizen Podcast, we tackle the biggest questions shaping Canada’s future—starting with Bill C‑5, the new federal law aimed at breaking down labour barriers between provinces. Is it truly a win for workers, or just another Ottawa power move?We then dig into Canada’s bold promise to hit NATO’s 2% GDP target by the end of 2025—raising the question: where is all this money coming from, and can we afford it as the economy struggles? Finally, we take a hard look at Alberta’s growing independence movement: who’s driving it, how much support it really has, and what separation would actually mean. Should Alberta separate? Will Bill C‑5 help Canadians? And who’s really paying for this military pledge?
