I feel sorry for Canada, Mango Mussolini is far from done with them. His ideal would be to goose step through the 51st state of Canada and into the 52nd state of Greenland
I would say if these separatists wanted to become American so bad, then go move to America.. but I have a suspicion that they either have criminal records, or America doesnt want their citizenship. Taking the land of the Native people and saying this is mine now probably wont fly too well.

Probably why we were seeing bots here clanking ‘Alberta wants to separate and join the US’

Bunch of thugs.
American people need to rise up against this evil.

If a very small percentage of Albertans want to become Americans they are free to leave
Have fun!

Elon’s grandpa was balls deep in this movement nearly 100 years ago.
Normal,patriotic Americans do not want Alberta. This insanity needs to stop.

Why aren’t we charging them with treason?

America is Canada’s biggest threat to sovereignty and we need to do everything in our power to diversify away from them. I personally will vote and advocate for any party that will move us away from American dominated trade. Any party seeking deeper ties with America immediately loses my vote and I will openly discuss with everyone I know why that’s a bad idea and I don’t think it should be supported.

This plan was most likely developed by Russia and then they coached the US side.

This is exactly what Putin would do.
Oh yea forgot. The US president is a big fan of this ruthless dictator. He even has a picture of them together hanging on the walls of the White House.
Can you imagine a US president who does this?
When are the American people rising up against this evil?

Could you imagine if the Putin admin met with some American state to talk separating?

Saw this one coming.
The people in Canadas freedom convoy didn’t just disappear and the rise of alt right extremism is more of a global issue than a national one. Nationalism generally makes it worse and there’s been a *huge* influx in Canada following trumps rhetoric, I’m sure there are countless bots and redpill factories targeting the population

The most proudly racist person I ever encountered was on Helldivers 2. He lives in Alberta and had a really racist screen name. I asked him about it in a curious way, very white supremacist, antisemitic shit going on. Says he’s in a group there that’s going to change the country. He thought I was a safe person to talk to because he found out I’m white, middle aged, and in the US South.
I recorded him, screenshot his name, and reported him and never saw him again.
There’s a lot of hateful people out there. They want others to die.

I think it’s funny that people think Alberta can separate.
For those unaware, Canada has a long long history with our indigenous people (good and bad history yes). One historical thing we have is land agreements (Treaties) . The land agreement where Alberta is was signed years before Alberta was even a province.
Those lands are not “owned” by Canada or Alberta, it’s owned by our indigenous tribes (mostly Treaty 6/7/8) in the 1870’s.
None of the tribes want to leave. The people are free to leave any time they want.

No foreign government should be messing around/meeting with Canadian representatives, that could ultimately affect our Sovereignty. Can you imagine Carny reps meeting with Minnesota’s to discuss them joining Canada? Haha…right.

Albertan here. These separatists hold little sway over most of Albertans. Their rhetoric is the same anytime someone is in power that is not of their party of choice. They believe that it will be so much better separating. They claim they have all the answers and yet can’t (or won’t) look at any of the flaws in their plan. The major sticking point is the funds being sent to Ottawa (Federal Government) in equalization payments. Alberta pays a large chunk to that system and they believe we shouldn’t. Instead of focusing on negotiating a better deal, they just say its not working and we are better off without the rest of Canada. Serious Brexit vibes.
These people are a vocal minority who are upset but have little desire to find the middle ground. It’s an all or nothing game to them. Which unfortunately does not lead to good leadership or running of a government. But hey, they want to run to the US and beg for money? Sounds like in short term, any financial benefit from separating will be squandered. But sure let’s give them some crown land somewhere in the north that does not belong to our indigenous peoples and let them play out their fantasy of a rich utopia that needs nothing from the rest of the country.

I drove to Alaska 2 summers ago. On farm property past Edmonton, right off the highway, there was a MASSIVE Trump flag billowing in the wind. In Watson Lake, I drove past a beat up truck with Canadian plates sporting a Trump bumper sticker. In a small gas station in the Yukon where I’d stopped for snacks, the owner was listening to some pretty hateful American Conservative talk radio. This all stood out to me as absurdity that people are supporting a politician that has nothing to do with them politically.
The world likes to point out how stupid us Americans are, and they’re right. But know, once the giant propaganda machine is pointed at you and your country, you’ll quickly find out how stupid your fellow neighbors are as well. You are not immune. The corruption spreads from within, and it’s already leaking in our neighbor to the North.
