A new political party wants Alberta to quit Canada. This week, we dive into the freshly minted Alberta Republican Party and its bold plan to turn the Wild Rose province into a country of its own.

As someone who lived through the political fever dream that was Brexit, Rhys breaks down the eerie similarities, the weaponization of identity politics, and how a populist playbook could be galloping straight into the Alberta foothills.

Who’s behind the Alberta Republican Party? What they actually want (besides more cowboy hats)? And what does it actually feels like when big referendums happen based on misinformation.
