On a cool night in September, a flotilla of pickup trucks flying Alberta flags sits in the parking lot outside a community hall in Sylvan Lake. The community of 17,000 people is about halfway between Edmonton and Calgary, surrounded by rolling farmland and central Alberta’s oil and gas industry.
A crowd of about 120 people has gathered for a town hall organized by the Alberta Prosperity Project, a pro-sovereignty group.
That’s no different than Quebec’s sentiment.
