Lukaszuk's Unity Bus tour draws dozens in Okotoks stop
Former Alberta deputy premier Thomas Lukaszuk continued his cross-province push against Alberta separatism with an Aug. 4 rally south of Calgary.
Why it matters
The tour reflects ongoing public debate in Alberta over the province's relationship with the rest of Canada.
Thomas Lukaszuk brought his self-described pro-Canadian Unity Bus tour to Okotoks on Aug. 4, where dozens of supporters turned out to meet him.
The stop is part of a broader tour taking Lukaszuk to communities across Alberta, aimed at rallying residents who oppose growing separatist sentiment in the province and want to voice support for staying part of Canada.
Lukaszuk, a former deputy premier of Alberta, has been using the bus tour to speak directly with residents in various towns and cities as the tour makes its way through the province.
