Albertans Unite for Canadian Pride | Calgary News
Description
On Canada Day, Calgary erupted with unity as the Forever Canadian movement launched a new downtown campaign hub, fueled by Thomas Lukaszuk’s rallying cry that being Canadian is about identity, not just location. With his Freedom Bus hitting the streets and Albertans proudly waving both provincial and national flags, Lukaszuk champions the idea that pride in Alberta and Canada go hand in hand. Meanwhile, NDP’s Naheed Nenshi echoed the sentiment, calling out separatist politics as inhumane and stressing that Albertans don’t have to choose between their two identities — they’re inseparable. As the Forever Canadian office opened on Riverfront Avenue, it became a symbol of belonging, reinforcing that pride in Alberta and Canada aren’t rivals, but a powerful, unified identity.
