Alberta Sovereignty: What it Is, and What It Means for the Rest of Canada

MST Special Zoom Event – June 3, 2025 @ 6:30 PM Central
Special Guest: Jason Lavigne

This week, MST is proud to welcome Jason Lavigne, a leading voice in Alberta’s sovereignty movement and a candidate for Member of Parliament in Parkland, Alberta. Jason is the host of The Lavigne Show, an independent journalist, entrepreneur, and homesteader. He brings a unique blend of legal expertise, grassroots activism, and political insight to the conversation about Alberta's future within—or outside of—Canada.

Jason Lavigne has been a bold and articulate advocate for Albertans who feel betrayed, overtaxed, and overruled by federal policies made in Ottawa. Through his platform as host of The Lavigne Show and as a former Alberta independence candidate, Jason has given voice to the growing frustration among Albertans who believe their province is being economically exploited, politically sidelined, and culturally dismissed by a centralized federal government.

His tireless work explores the structural imbalances within Confederation — including equalization payments, federal energy policy, and the judicial overreach many feel has eroded provincial rights. More than a critic, Jason is a solution-seeker, helping Albertans imagine a future where provincial sovereignty is restored — whether through constitutional reforms, assertive provincial legislation, or a bold redefinition of Alberta’s role within (or even outside) Canada.

In this session, Jason will guide us through:

The motivations behind Alberta's sovereignty movement — where it comes from, what it hopes to achieve, and why support is growing

The Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act — what it says, what it empowers, and why it matters to all Canadians

How Alberta’s bold stance may affect the future of Confederation — including possible implications for provinces like Manitoba
