Alberta Stays in Canada! 🇨🇦 | The Industrious Beaver

Alberta has spoken! 🇨🇦 After all the debate about separation, Albertans went to the polls — and roughly three out of four voted to stay in Canada! Featuring a determined Alberta Bison, a hardworking Canadian Beaver, and enough political paperwork to build another dam. Because we don't always have to agree to belong together. 🍁 Canada Strong. 🦫 Beaver Strong. 🇨🇦 Alberta Strong. ☕ The coffee's still hot. Original music and animated music video by The Industrious Beaver. Lyrics: Alberta packed her suitcase, said, "I'm leaving this place!" Had a cowboy hat and a serious face. Said, "Ottawa, we're finished! We're going our own way!" Then the ballots came in and spoiled the big day! The ballots came in, the numbers were clear, Somebody said, "Guess we're staying here!" Three out of four said, "Put that suitcase down!" And the Beaver said, "Well, Canada's still sound!" Oh, Alberta! You're staying with us! After all that shouting and political fuss! You can speak your mind, you've got plenty to say, But three out of four said, "We're gonna stay!" Oh, Alberta! Come on back in! The votes have been counted, the results are in! From your mountain peaks to your endless sky, We're still your neighbours, so put down that goodbye! They talked about borders, passports and trade, A brand-new country to be custom-made. A flag, an anthem, a national debt, And a currency nobody's invented yet! They'd need a new border, a flag and a name, But the Rockies and prairies would still look the same. The Beaver just smiled and poured himself tea, "That's a lot of paperwork for changing geography!” Oh, Alberta! You're staying with us! After all that shouting and political fuss! You can stomp your boots, you can holler all day, But three out of four said, "We're gonna stay!" Oh, Alberta! Come on back in! The votes have been counted, the results are in! From your mountain peaks to your endless sky, We're still your neighbours, so put down that goodbye! They asked the Beaver, "What do you think?" He put down his hammer and took a drink. Said, "Separation's a complicated chore… Have you tried getting along with your neighbour before?" Oh, Alberta! You're staying with us! Still one big family, still making a fuss! From Alberta's plains to the Fundy Bay, We argue like hell, but together we stay! Oh, Alberta! The kettle's still on! The coffee's still hot, and the country's not gone! Ottawa and Alberta don't always agree, But there's room for us all in this family! "Well, that's settled." "Alberta, you're staying with us." #Alberta #AlbertaReferendum #CanadaStrong #IndustriousBeaver #CanadianSatire #CanadianMusic #Canada
