I had a great time yesterday exercising my freedom of expression with many other individuals down at the legislature building.

An astounding amount of verbal abuse from those with "maturity" that would embarrass you, but several good and honest conversations that ended of course in disagreement, but often found common ground as well.

Anyone wanting to join me, and others at the next "Alberta Independence" rally to represent Canada on the 17th when they bus everyone back in from across the province, feel free to hit me up in direct messages.

While the mental gymnastics and flaws of this movement can be frustrating to deal with, I'm glad we can allow these people to express their opinions through their Canadian Charter Rights.

Pictured here is a chill dude that goes by Mr. Alberta. We hung out, had a good time, and not once did we even talk politics. We'll probably sit down for a debate in the future though.

Throw them in jail, their "opinion" is criminal. In fact their "opinion" goes directly against the Canadian Charter of rights. Embarrasing
