Why does Kenney continually embellish the narrative regarding separation?

That it exists? Now Trudeau aparently wants separation? Is this something his American bosses want just like they wanted lower 'stump fees' for Alberta oil in the past and future and Albertan leaders gave in? Will Albertans fall for it?

narrative of Alberta separation this election season. I mean Trudeau bought them a pipeline and everything and all they do is attack him. Trump would. He would think that separation in canada would be good. Easy pickings then. Some oped person pointed out that the people of Norway get many, many times more $$$ for their oil from big oil than Albertans do. Says western alienation is just using ottawa as an 'other' to attack so people don't notice what their conservative politicians have not been doing for them. That is very american. Why this false narrative? Why now? Alberta has oil. Saskatchewan has 500 years of potash.
