Pierre Poilievre: “Quitting is the easy way out, and Albertans are not quitters.”

To those people who are thinking about taking out their frustration on the current government by voting for separation and the referendum, I say this: Canada is more than a government, it’s a people, a flag, a land, a history and a promise.

My message to Albertans is this: Don’t leave your fellow Canadians behind. Lock arms with them, lock arms with Canadians who want to restore the promise of Canada.

We have a 200-year-old relationship. There's always going to be grievances on both sides of the border.

And that’s what we need to do — use our resources and energy to make us stronger, more affordable and more self-reliant here at home.
