The Critical Compass Podcast - Edmonton SHOWS UP for Alberta Independence

In this episode, we talk about the incredible turnout at the Stay Free Alberta petition drive and how the event has impacted the city of Edmonton and the people who came out to sign the petition. We hope you join us as we continue to push for an independent Alberta in the upcoming referendum!

00:00:27.000 like you know you expect people to come early but not like hours early the first guy i signed

00:00:31.140 actually said he came here at five o'clock in the morning because he wanted to be first

00:00:34.120 so we were not expecting that at all and we were definitely not expecting these kind of turnouts
