ALT Rabbi Mark Glickman: "...to the extent that we continually affirm our great tradition of welcoming and remain resolute in our opposition to those who would have us turn away the outsider. Let the words of antiquity echo forth ever louder: welcome the foreigner, treat them kindly as one of you, and as one with you. For if you're like most of us, you too were once a foreigner here yourself. Let's... let's remember these words in the vote on this referendum, and let's honor our shared humanity as we welcome people who come to Alberta from all over the world. Thank you."

ALT Quote from Kurby Court: "In the business events industry, being Canadian means something. I’ve travelled all over the world over the course of my career. Professionals from other countries see the Canadian flag pin on my lapel and perceive me as safe. Secure. Trustworthy. "Our reputation as a country precedes us wherever we go. And that’s good for business. The business events world depends on stability and reputation. "But rhetoric that suggests we might walk away from Canada introduces uncertainty. Even if the polls show that the majority of Albertans don’t want to separate, this conversation around separatism threatens our economy. "Because nobody invests in uncertainty. (...) This isn’t the time to turn our backs on our fellow Canadians. It’s an opportunity for us Albertans to put our defining traits to work, demonstrate our resilience, work ethic, spirit of innovation, and build something better for all Canadians."

ALT Jason Kenney: "Question for the 6% of Albertans who want us to become a US resource colony: why not just go there and make a refugee claim? "You’ll be hosted in a lovely ICE detention facility while the Trump Administration determines whether you really are being oppressed in Canada by the “globalist deep state,” or whatever."
