## Resource

Jeffrey Rath, a key figure in Albertas separatist movement, is advocating for a leadership change within the United Conservative Party, urging them to oust Premier Danielle Smith and adopt a more separatist stance. Rath, who leads the Stay Free Alberta petition, claims Smith has lost the partys confidence, particularly due to her carbon tax agreement with Prime Minister Mark Carney. Meanwhile, separatists are also expressing dissatisfaction with potential pipeline routes and Edmonton City Councillor Michael Janzs proposal to rename a road in front of the Alberta Legislature to Forever Canadian Avenue, which is likely to be a contentious issue for the UCP and their separatist allies.
