What's a threat to Canadian unity isn't Alberta, but it's pushing Alberta isolation like this that's doing it.

It seems like only 20% of Alberta actually wants succession, and a lot of it is conditional on BC joining them, which is basically a nonstarter for BC anyways.

The threat to Canada is Alberta feeling isolated and articles like this furthers such sentiment.

Western alienation has been around for decades and decades.

It's difficult to consider something a threat, when it's become the status quo.
