Separation Party of Alberta

“Giving Alberta to Albertans”
Alberta Separatists Policy Meeting
Date: March 19, 2005
Location: North Hill Inn, Red Deer, Alberta

WOW!!! That is my comment after spending the day in Red Deer. WOW!!!

The day began with a presentation from Mr. Mike Bennison, former executive director and member of the Western Canada Concept party, sharing lessons learned from their bid to form government in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Key points:

  • Grow the party, one member at a time—focus on people who truly believe in an Independent Alberta.
  • Delegate details to appropriate levels; executives should focus on leadership.
  • Utilize members' talents to raise funds and keep everything transparent.
  • Train candidates and representatives in public speaking for effective message delivery.

Other highlights were shared, but you’ll have to attend a meeting to learn more!

Members then broke into groups to discuss a variety of topics and policy amendments presented by Mr. Al Romanchuk. Some amendments passed, most did not.

Afternoon: Mr. Gordon Elias, interim leader from the Western Independence Party of Saskatchewan, shared their progress and election results. Visit their site: www.wips.ca.

There was discussion about adding a blog or forum, and launching a web store for party merchandise.
