Summary
A fiery Alberta independence advocate, Cory Morgan, is sparking national debate after erecting a massive political billboard in Taber demanding the province break from Ottawa — and he’s not backing down. Despite town officials ordering it down over complaints about its message and land use, Morgan has doubled down, installing more signs and rallying support. He argues local governments should focus on potholes, not free speech, and sees this as a pivotal moment in Alberta’s potential secession. With a referendum looming and funding pouring in, Morgan’s campaign is gaining momentum — but he’s also facing pushback and limited space, fueling fears this could become a flashpoint for the province’s future.
