During the trucker convoy, many of us still believed in Canada.
We had Canadian flags on our vehicles.
Canadian flags on our lawns.
We were proud Canadians who believed that flag still represented freedom, unity, and the right to peacefully disagree.
Then we watched how Canada treated its own people.
That moment changed a lot of Albertans.
It forced us to ask a hard question:
What country are we trying to save?
For Albertans, independence began with heartbreak and betrayal.
It began with realizing that the Canada we loved no longer loved us back.
That is why I support Alberta independence.
