Forever Canada petition in Alberta to stop the "separatists" exceeded expectations.

Today our signatures to keep Alberta part of Canada were delivered to Elections Alberta. Not only did we get our question approved by Elections Alberta before the separatists (not sure they have even got theirs through the court yet) but we had to go through the old rules before Dani decided to change them for the separatists; so instead of 175,000 signatures and 6 mos we had to obtain 279,000 in 3 mos. Each form had to be hand filled out and signed by an Albertan. Well today was the day to hand them in and we had over 456,000 signatures, approx 50% from Calgary and Edmonton and the other 50% from other areas of Alberta. It can now go to referendum.

Way to go Alberta, lets shut these assholes down!
