The Lavigne Show
«Stay or Leave? - Edmonton
Recorded live in Edmonton on Thursday, September 17, 2026, Stockwell Day and Bruce Pardy debate the central question:
Should Alberta leave Canada and become an independent country?
Stockwell Day presents the Stay position, arguing that Alberta should remain within Canada.
Bruce Pardy presents the Leave position, arguing that Alberta should become an independent country.
The debate is moderated by Jason Lavigne, host of The Lavigne Show.
The one-hour debate uses a chess-clock format, with each participant receiving 30 minutes of total speaking time. When one debater has the floor, his clock runs; when the floor changes, the other clock begins.
Following the debate, there is a written audience Q&A, with questions moderated by Jason Lavigne.
This was not a Third-Party Advertiser event. It was an open debate designed to present both sides of the question. Whether you support Stay, support Leave, or remain undecided, the goal is to hear the arguments and make up your own mind.
