Blatantly funded by the US. Where are all the “foreign interference!!!” Conservatives now? How is this legal??
You all wannabe Americans? Go ahead and move to the US. Apply for citizenship. No one is stopping you. You’re doing the rest of us a favor.
But, you don’t get to take the land with you.
We could start by enforcing our laws. Foreign interference is everywhere, and we’ve just ignored it for decades. Eg, the US funds the Frasier Institute and no one makes any comment about this. Half of our media is owned by them. The convoy was subsidized by US funding. I don’t believe for a moment that the UCP and/or its members aren’t awash in US corporate bribes and cash promises.
Our country is under threat and no one seems to do a damn thing about it. Why doesn’t any politician discuss this? Poilievre talks about Chinese interference, where is the concern for this interference by the US, very clearly our enemy??!
I remember when Canada used to prosecute and jail fascists. Now it coddles them.
No one is stopping you
To be fair, even if in the US legally, ICE is stopping you. And then shipping you off to some other foreign country’s jail.
In this case, I have no problem with that.
We should have some citizenship exchange program so they can swap with those being persecuted in US for not being male white rich.
Not going to happen. Plus, I’ve read that most of those that do want to separate don’t want join the US.
Even IF the people of Alberta vote in favour of leaving Canada it still has to be approved by Parliament, and that is not happening at this time with the current seat counts for each party.
I have lived in Calgary, Alberta for over 20 years. I don’t know a single person who would want to leave Canada. I also know that Alberta would not stand a chance alone. We DEPEND on the federal government for funding and other Provinces for goods. We’re land locked and have next to no manufacturing.
Votes aren’t looking like they’re going to mean anything in the US anymore. Don’t be too confident they’re going to respect any vote in Alberta.
I believe behind the scenes, it’s got the smell of Trump.
This is treason and should be prosecuted. There is no justice until they are behind bars.
This is like, cut and dry, 100% treason. What the fuck?
It’s just capitalism, baby! Just a business arrangement between two close personal friends in the oil industry. No need to get democracy involved.
Kick these traitors out of Canada or prison. Carney needs to do something about this
#treason
They can vote themselves out if they want.
They don’t get the land, though; they trade their passport for a plane ticket.
That’s the only deal they get. C’est bon?
I would be happy if separation means individual separation from Canada…they turn in their passport and get a ride over the border.
But the US doesn’t want them they want the resources.
Can we just ship the dinks that agreed with it? The rest of us like where we live.
Can we just ship the dinks that agreed with it?
I say that’s the only deal they get.
The rest of us like where we live.
I lived 8 years in the flatlands. It’s not without its beauty, generosity, heart, intellect and soul. None of these attributes are shown by the politicos, who just need some encouragement to pupate to carpetbaggers and improve everyone’s lives – ideally they can fly away as beautiful but-tah-flies (I can’t not hear the accent now) before their hungry caterpillar selves eat everything alive and green.
Always was. Make no mistake that Alberta is Canada’s Sudetenland/Crimea. Is it not obvious to say the US military appears more similar to Nazi Germany rather than Russia a couple years ago. Canada is stronger with Alberta and when it’s annexed there must be a fight or it’ll just be easier to get at the rest of greater Canada. Ideally to send a message, traitors/secessionists are imprisoned ASAP.
Dare we say ICE’d?
Trump cancels any talks with Canada over tariffs because of fords anti-tariff commercial, because we’re meddling in their politics, but these Nazi fucking yanks can do this?
Time for Canada to cut off all talk with the filthy yanks, cut off the power we provide them and let them stew in the cold for a while.
Fuck I hate America.
I propose a border swap: USA gets Alberta, Canada gets Washington State
(Please I beg you get me out of here)
Nooooooo!
80+% of Albertans do NOT support this nonsense!
They must really hate labor laws and healthcare up there in Alberta to consider this
They hate a lot of things in Alberta.
Healthcare, education, trans people, Brown people, green energy…
Why the hell would anyone want to be part of the dumpster fire in America.

Fuck you Scott, take your adled mind and get the fuck out of Alberta.
Trade it for California?
I get that they are being hypocrites, but surely it would only make it easier for US states to secede.
Where are all the “foreign interference!!!” Conservatives now?
Tucker Carlson and his lot are all in on this.
This is an important distinction: foreign means “foreign.” Venezuela and Canada are considered to be the US’s back yard, hence fair game. This is what anti interventionist MAGA has been pushing and pushing for.
So he’s just after oil huh
