LISTEN TO THE PODCAST HERE This week the two of us recount our vast journey through Alberta and the experience that we had in Calgary. In the past week we have talked to dozens and dozens of people and interviewed people from across Alberta about separatism! We stood outside on the street and conducted interviews with people who were interested in speaking with us, getting yelled at, told off, and even getting threatened here and there.
