Alberta was home to the anti-Trudeau movement. Now it looks like it’s Mark Carney’s turn

The flags and T shirts for sale on Amazon have already been updated — same profanity, same maple leaf, new name: F**k Trudeau is out, and F**k Carney has arrived.

The Liberal victory was not a landslide for political newbie Mark Carney as the country remains deeply — sometimes angrily — polarized. Nowhere is that postelection angst being voiced more than in Alberta, the province which largely defied the red wave, whose premier had pledged an “unprecedented national unity crisis” should Carney not meet her list of demands and where fringe groups are now agitating for separation.
