Calgary 
Events Description
The votes are counted. The questions have been answered. Alberta has spoken.
So naturally, it is time to ask the only question that really matters:
How has Stephen Carter fucked this up for Alberta?
Join Zain Velji, Shannon Phillips and Stephen Carter for a special live edition of The Strategists at the Bella Concert Hall.
We’ll pick through the wreckage of Alberta’s referendum and finally have answers to Danielle Smith’s ten burning questions. What did Albertans say? What does it mean? Who won? Who lost? Who will claim they won despite obviously losing? And whose idea was this whole thing anyway?
Then we turn to our increasingly normal relationship with the United States.
We’ve already been forced to put a 50% tariff on tickets to this show.* What comes next? A trade war? A constitutional crisis? A hostile takeover? Invading Montana before they invade us?
We’ll discuss what this new era means for Alberta, Canada and our relationship with our very large, very powerful and increasingly weird neighbour to the south.
Featuring Zain Velji, Shannon Phillips and Stephen Carter, with a possible appearance from the good folks at Balance of Power.
There may also be special guests.
Maybe.
We’re not committing to anything.
