“We talked about a $500 million transition loan that we would only draw down on as necessary as we work with the U.S. to transition from a province to a country,” said Modry. He also claimed that they discussed a plan to prop up Alberta’s currency where “the U.S. agrees to take every Alberta citizen’s Canadian dollar and then exchange it for one U.S. dollar.”
“Alberta, of course, can provide energy security,” he said. “It can also provide water security, agricultural security, forestry security, metal security, coal security, plus an industrious workforce. So there is tremendous benefit to the U.S., to work with us.”
Has any of this been verified?
I wasn’t able to find any 3rd party sources verifying this.
That’s my issue and even after a couple of days no other source had picked up the story.
