“Very, very senior” officials in the Trump administration have had secret meetings with far-right Canadian separatists trying to shake the foundations of the country. The covert meetings between high-ranking U.S. officials and the Alberta Prosperity Project come as a widening rift appears between Canadian leadership and the White House. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney used a speech in Davos, Switzerland, last week to call out President Trump for creating a “rupture” in the existing world order.

      Who cares, that’s not how elections work in Canada. “Only 52%” voted MAGA -proud of that?? That’s enough to win a separtist referendumb.

      So l’il PP lost, and the party then makes a US citizen the leader AGAIN, and yet another AB riding elects MAGA. So yeah, they would become North Montana in a heartbeat.

      I’d like to see a referendum to kick out Alberta because the country is sick of their right-wing bullshit polluting our politics after hijacking the PC brand.

        Why are you mad at me? Lol. I was pointing out that it’s not as bad as the riding count makes it look. I am not your enemy guy.

        You can be a douchebag and advocate to kick Alberta out, sure. I’m not that big of a defeatist though. We had an NDP gov a few years ago, and support for the UCP is getting flaky. There are a lot of progressive grassroots movements that are going through the province.
