It is not the same as Quebec where Quebec just wants/wanted to run their own province using Quebec money. Here they want to be funded by the US extremists. If they want to join the United States, they should move there.

Sounds like a good place to start for the incoming „Foreign Influence Transparency Commissioner“

Anyone who makes a single peep about the modest trade deal with China over election interference should probably reassess their goddamn priors.

How is this not a direct attack on our country?

I’m sure that the CIA is spending money on Alberta independence. And there is little doubt that they are doing the same thing in Quebec.

The traitorous, separatist trash are too stupid to realize how far fetched and ridiculous separating is. It’s never going to happen.

This sounds like political interference—the same kind Pete Hoekstra claimed the U.S. would never engage in against an ally, when Ontario released that Reagan ad.

And didn’t the American dumbasses call Doug Ford’s legit Regan ad political interference?

This is unacceptable foreign interference.

How is this not treason. Why should this sedition be tolerated.

You can tell it’s real by the amount of separatist downvotes you’ll get for asking „What does Alberta have to gain from leaving Canada if not to just join the US? How will they make it as an individual landlocked country between one they had a bad breakup with, and one that will financially pressure them into becoming the 51st state?“

Interesting to see these independence seekers looking to join a country that will for sure not give you as much independence as Canada. What a bunch of fools

Pretty sure this is foreign interference. We also really need laws to deal with these traitors, they deserve to lose citizenship and get removed from the country to whatever hellhole they want to live in.

As someone from Quebec who would vote yes in a referendum on sovereignty, I find the concept of wanting to be the 51st state really cringe. Like the whole point is to be your own country, to make your own decisions (good or bad) and to look to the future, not join some rickety country on the verge of a civil war.

You know as much as we’ve previously had a high tolerance for separatists in this country, given the current circumstances I think it may be time to dust off some of those old high treason laws.

Trump officials met with traitors from Alberta. Ftfy.

Similar to Jason Kenny, Danielle Smith has opened up pandora’s box by flirting with fringe elements for short term political gains.

If there is no law in Canada that prevents these actions, there needs to be.
Times are changing, and should our laws.
The penalty should include giving up the right to vote.

Getting pretty sick and tired of Alberta traitors.

Doing the work for the Kremlin now and destabilizing Canada from within, just like they did/are doing with the US.
