When I think of any form of Western separation, I am ovecome by emotions. Being a social conservative, I feel that any politics other than what is proven successful by the federal Liberals is a waste of political effort. I would rather be constructive than destructive. Rather than being destructive and separating, the Western provincial Independence parties are being constructive. They talk about initiating change at the regional or provincial level for federal reform.
Western separatists are simply greedy.
They don't deserve to keep their natural wealth to themselves. Besides, someday as their overall economic performance declines, Western Canadians might need Canada's assistance.
