As the publication emphasizes, the so-called “wexit” is spoken in the western provinces of the country, which depend on the oil industry.
“Is it real? Yes. People are angry. I haven’t seen anything like this before, ”the newspaper quotes a member of the Conservative Party of Parliament in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan.
It is clarified that for at least a year, residents of Alberta and Saskatchewan have called for political change in Ottawa, while the construction of an expanded pipeline is becoming more complicated, and Canadian farmers are being harmed by trade disagreements with China.
The material also says that despite the majority of conservative seats in the region, the federal leadership remains with the liberals, which resulted in “talk of a break with Canada,” which began the topic of “wexit” on social networks.
October 22, it became known that the Liberal Party of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau won the parliamentary elections, but did not gain an absolute majority of 170 seats.
