Reflections on the Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills Byelection
Why did they call it the Alberta Republican Party? That is surely very offputting, including to most Albertans who support sovereignty. It sounds like they're larping as Americans.
A Republic is far closer to a true democracy and can be held accountable at all levels. This is Alberta's future not the 51st or staying in Chinada.
Calling it the "Alberta Republican Party" seems like an obvious allusion to the American Republican party. That's what I mean by larping.
When you start a new party everything is about getting people talking about you. We are talking about it now, so it worked.
Can you not do both? Get people talking about you and also offer an appealing vision of Alberta nationalism?
