I remember reading a poll done by Ezra Levant's defunct Western Standard magazine back in 2005 when Paul Martin was PM. It asked random Western Canadians if they were in favor of seperation. Albertans were 43% in favor and 57% against. The numbers are probably a little less now that the conservatives are in power. Supprisingly the largest group in favour of seperation were the young adults who were too young to remember the infamous NEP. So it's not just a few fringe crazy right wingers (like me

) who want to seperate.
