This week, Manitoba Stronger Together is proud to welcome Jason Lavigne, a leading voice in Alberta’s sovereignty movement and a candidate for Member of Parliament in Parkland, Alberta. Jason is the host of The Lavigne Show, an independent journalist, entrepreneur, and homesteader. He brings a unique blend of legal expertise, grassroots activism, and political insight to the conversation about Alberta's future within—or outside of—Canada.
Jason Lavigne has been a bold and articulate advocate for Albertans who feel betrayed, overtaxed, and overruled by federal policies made in Ottawa. Through his platform as host of The Lavigne Show and as a former Alberta independence candidate, Jason has given voice to the growing frustration among Albertans who believe their province is being economically exploited, politically sidelined, and culturally dismissed by a centralized federal government.
His tireless work explores the structural imbalances within Confederation — including equalization payments, federal energy policy, and the judicial overreach many feel has eroded provincial rights. More than a critic, Jason is a solution-seeker, helping Albertans imagine a future where provincial sovereignty is restored — whether through constitutional reforms, assertive provincial legislation, or a bold redefinition of Alberta’s role within (or even outside) Canada.
In this session, Jason will guide us through:
The motivations behind Alberta's sovereignty movement — where it comes from, what it hopes to achieve, and why support is growing
The Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act — what it says, what it empowers, and why it matters to all Canadians
How Alberta’s bold stance may affect the future of Confederation — including possible implications for provinces like Manitoba.
The documentary The Shot: Sean Hartman’s Story is coming to Ontario.
This is more than a film, it’s a fundraiser and a fight for truth, accountability, and justice.

Folks,

We'll see you tomorrow.
Hi all,
Paula and I are taking a mid-week day off.
See you tomorrow with Frances Widdowson.
Stay warm, God bless.
Paula & Jay on the @TheLavigneShow are two of my favorite people. I am a supporter because I believe in their honesty, integrity & most of all their dedication to truth & the Alberta Independence Movement. I wrote a song about our quest for freedom, it is called My Alberta Home. You can find a demo of the song on my X page Michael Kosterman @MichaelKosterm2
We are headed into the studio later this spring to record a Radio Version of this song. Thank you Paula & Jay for all that you do. I will be coming to see you soon at one of your events! All my best & God Save Alberta!
