Unlike me, I realize you have not lived in ALberta for nearly 50 years, but I have spent the majority of the 21st century there.
I can tell you, without hesitation, that very few in the two big cities (Calgary and Edmonton) support ALberta breaking off from Canada. Probably around 10%. IN rural areas it's most likely higher, but in no place do the majority of Albertans want to break off from Canada.
Stop going on Twitter and following a bunch of bots, to get an accurate read of what the consensus is in that province. Truth be told, there is little difference between Albertans and Manitobans, especially in rural areas.

I don't follow Twitter or any other social media platform. I may not have lived in Alberta for almost 50 years, but I've certainly had to listen to their whining for that long. "Waah... Ottawa is robbing us! Waah... Canada doesn't deserve us!" Makes my eyes roll. You're right about ill-informed, conservative rural voters versus more educated, liberal city dwellers. Same thing happened in the '95 Quebec referendum. Greater Montreal voted no, the rest of Quebec voted yes. I'm pleased that you're confident that the vast majority of Albertan's don't want to separate. They need to take a break from their whining and get aligned with the rest of Canada because, currently, they are the weakest link in our sovereignty. Danielle Smith is a trojan horse.
