Business leaders warn that if Alberta separates and accepts U.S. President Donald Trump’s line of credit, it would start with $600 billion in debt, significantly affecting its economy. The Edmonton Chamber of Commerce highlights that separation talks are already deterring investment, as stability is crucial for investors. Edmonton Global’s Mustafa Sahin notes that Canada’s trade agreements may make it more attractive, despite concerns over capital flight. The potential economic fallout mirrors past examples like Scotland and Quebec, indicating long-term challenges for Alberta’s job market and investment landscape.
