      Seeking foreign interference in breaking apart Canada does seem like a red line that shouldn’t be crossed.

      Yeah, this isn’t a game. No matter how small or fringe this seems, it’s clear that they are serious, and they are engaging with a foreign power. They are inviting external interference to move this forward.

      Not that it matters, but to me, personally, this rises to treason.

    3. Sounds like a clear cut example of „political interference“ If the Trump regime is trying to influence the Alberta seperatists. Find out who and what party was involved for crimes? Def speaks of treason.

    4. Maybe it’s time to review the definition and update it as required. Times change. So should laws.

    5. Plenty of “Canadians” would give their citizenship up to be American. Tons of immigrants are only here because they wanted to originally go to the states and we are a 2nd choice. Never underestimate people who want to be part of a big event and will vote to make it happen because they don’t care. They could vote to leave and once it passes they move to BC.

    6. Eby’s right, and by any measure they should be investigated and face the same repercussions as the „freedom convoy“. Freeze their accounts, 100% financial overview and pull their passports. It’s one thing to act as a voice for the people when you’ve been voted into power, it’s completely another to just cosplay as an elected official and speak for Canadians as though you have any authority to do so.

      If it were up to me they’d be in jail for the foreseeable future.

    7. The obvious answer is that Canada needs to send a delegation to Hawaii to meet with independence campaigners there.

      Quebec separatists: We seek to rule ourselves without the authority of the anglophones or their King.

      Alberta Separatists: Oh we still want to be told what to do, we just want someone else to tell us what to do. New King, Baby!

      Yeah, it absolutely is treason. They conspired with a hostile foreign government to cause unrest and break away from Canada.

      Edit*
      Downvote me harder clankers, Alberta separatists are traitors

    10. MZillacraft3000 on

      So like, with this being said. Can we finally end the separatists stuff and get those involved in it investigated and arrested now please?

    11. I don’t think it’s treason. Treason requires direct action.

      We have a word for this, Sedition.

      Becuase there is no legal route for Alberta to separate from Canada, it would have to be done by force. That in my not a lawyer opinion sounds like sedition.

      Any agreement for annexation with the US should be void because of the treason…if they succeed in separating.

    13. We can be certain that it was the other way around the U.S. would be calling it an act of War.

    14. A_Vicious_T_Rex on

      If the authorities still insist that this isn’t enough to cross the line, then we need to pass a law to make this the line you don’t cross. This is ridiculous

      They are traitors. And I say this as someone with separatist views myself. As a Newfoundlander, I love Canada, but I am very much a Newfoundlander first. This is the overall sentiment here on the island. Always has been. We have only been a part of Canada for 76 years! Many of us here would gladly support becoming a republic, if we were able. Super complex topic, of course. It’s been a movement here for decades, though not an active one currently. We even have a “republic of Newfoundland” flag, which many other Canadians may not be aware of.

      THAT BEING SAID, conspiring with outside forces is a totally different ballgame. Especially when that outside force is a country that is very quickly going from former ally to hostile enemy under the current administration. It is absolutely a crime! The entitlement, audacity and lack of dignity is next level.

      It’s also weird, lol. I fail to see the logic behind it. What makes Alberta different than the other Canadian provinces? On what grounds does separation make any sense? How is the argument supported, historically or otherwise? In the case of Quebec and Newfoundland, it‘s actually a viable argument, supported historically and culturally, backed by people from *all* political parties. There’s actually a discernible difference between both Quebec and Newfoundland, and the rest of Canada. But Alberta *is* Canada in such an inherent way that it’s impossible to detangle the two. It’s not a valid movement – it’s simply a byproduct of the far-right American brain rot that’s been seeping north across the border and infecting the fragile minds of the conservatives.

      Yes but meanwhile the rest of Canada including BC keeps putting up roadblocks and ignoring the needs and wants of Alberta.

      Alberta wants oil pipelines, BC doesn’t so it doesn’t get built, and other issues mean that even when the government forces it though it takes so much longer then building one in say Poland or the USA, that is basically comical.(on a per km basis.)

      Alberta doesn’t want the gun bans, but getting rid of the bans would make Quebec wine liberal voters upset, (even though they don’t have any skin in the game and don’t own guns or at least a non fudd rifle or shotgun .). So they stay.

      It’s really simple if the rest of Canada wants Alberta to stay then give a reason for the folks living there to not vote for separation, instead of giving them reasons to vote for it.

      The Canadians that are from Alberta that want to be in America would probably be willfully accepted maybe even fast tracked. As long as they were of certain characteristics and viewpoints.

    18. According_Effort_878 on

      Yes not wrong. But he also has other things he should be spending his time on rather than giving this separatist nonsense more coverage… it’s not going to happen, just focus on the issues in bc

      Where is CSIS in this? Identify and PNG every one of these foreign agitators, no matter where they come from. Cause it ain’t just America.
