Alberta to become 1st province with mandatory 'citizenship markers' on driver's licences

he government of Alberta announced Monday that driver's licences and identification cards will feature "Canadian citizenship markers."

The mandatory change, which is the first of its kind in Canada, will roll out in late 2026, Premier Danielle Smith told reporters.

"We believe in making things better, faster and more convenient for everyone," she said.

Adding citizenship information to driver's licences allows for Albertans to more effectively apply for funding and services like student aid, health benefits and disability supports.

"This change means that when Albertans need to prove both their identity and their citizenship, they'll be able to do so with a single document," Smith said.

The change is "also about protecting our democracy," she said, noting that the change will help preserve the integrity and security of elections.

Smith said permanent residents and non-citizens living in Alberta will have no marker displayed on their card.

You may find 'nobility' in a savage. But never forget that his first instinct is to kill you.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

This means that everyone in Canada will have to renew their Driving Licence.

Could be used as a sort of 'census' of actual Canadian Citizens as opposed to general population as well.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

"Real ID" comes to Canada, or at least Alberta.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
