I'd be extremely skeptical of people saying they wouldn't leave.

This has been the case for decades. Every time they run the polling, the overwhelming majority don't want to separate. It's why they can never get enough signatures to even have a referendum.

Most people in Alberta are Canadians through and through, whatever blowhards like Smith want to think.

What does "leave" mean in this context? A vote to leave?

Sometimes people hold unpopular opinions privately until they’re examined under the spotlight. Then they realize that’s not actually their opinion. See: Brexit.
