The West Wants Out | Salim Mansur

When the Reform Party of Canada was created in 1987 it captured the discontent that many Western Canadians felt about the inequities of Confederation. Their slogan was “The West Wants In.”

Since then, the Reform Party morphed into the Canadian Alliance which again evolved into the Conservative Party of Canada. Throughout these changes, however, Westerners witnessed no essential change in the way that Ottawa treated them, even under the majority government of Stephen Harper.

Finally realizing that Canada is nothing more than a patchwork quilt of quarrelling provinces and regions many in the West no longer regard the country as their home and feel that independence would be more in their best interest.

Our guest, professor Salim Mansur of Western University recently toured Alberta and British Columbia coming away with a sense that separation—particularly for Alberta—may be the only viable way for that jurisdiction to prosper and at the same time prompt the rest of Canada to repair the tenuous bonds that hold the nation together.
