Attended the Western Canada premiers conference reception and gathering in Kananaskis Country , Alberta . i was more than a bit disappointed at the event given the important issues got derailed by the discussions of a referendum vote on whether Alberta s wanted to proceed with the separation from Canada . 🇨🇦 is what is important .
