There's a referendum in Alberta this fall, and independence is on the ballot - sort of.

Who are the separatists? What do they actually want?

And what happens to the rest of Canada if they get it?


Separation Anxiety is a five‑part investigative series from award‑winning Alberta journalists Danielle Paradis and Tim Querengesser that aims to find out.


Join them as they follow organizers into church boardrooms and hot‑dog picnics to examine the influences, ideas and grievances fuelling Alberta’s modern separatist movement.


From its century-old roots to the anti-lockdown protests, trucker convoy and political upheaval that brought Danielle Smith to power, Separation Anxiety also traces the movement’s evolution — and why it is now tied to accusations of criminal treason and treaty‑rights violations.


Produced with the support of Canadian True Crime, Separation Anxiety launches September 22 and will be released weekly.

    Oh my lanta do we have an episode for you!


    On Oct. 19, Albertans will vote on whether to hold a binding referendum on leaving Canada. Journalists Tim Querengesser and Danielle Paradis spend the summer with the people who want out of Canada: on a freeway overpass in Edmonton, at an Alberta Day celebration in Mirror, AB and in a Baptist church in Calgary. They ask what's driving the separatist movement, and what role Christian nationalism plays in it.

    2026/09/29

    Separatists talk about a trillion-dollar surplus and an Independent Alberta with no income tax. So, where are the numbers to prove Albertans would be better off?


    Dani and Tim start with an Edmonton town hall where separatist organizer Kathy Flett ran into a hostile crowd. From there they check the math behind the movement's biggest promises.

    Author Tyler Dawson traces Alberta's grievances back to before it was a province and explains why the National Energy Program still hurts 40 years later. Political scientist Jared Wesley says today's separatism has more in common with MAGA and Brexit, than with Western alienation. Finally, Professor Lisa Young explains why she calls Premier Danielle Smith "Schrödinger's premier."
