This is a great read outlining how the U.S. and Russia are influencing vast swarms of people in Alberta with pro separation propaganda. Spread this article if you agree with your peers, family, and friends especially inside of Alberta to help educate them on how they're being manipulated by foreign powers.

It's all AI slop too. There is nothing organic about this "movement". The Albertans who are falling for this don't see that America just wants their resources. They think because they're white Christians, that America cares about them.

America does not care about them.

If Albertans think being Canadian sucks, then they're not going to like being second-class Americans any better.

The US doesn't even care about their own white Christians, why would they care about ours.

Dumbfucks.

Sure. And there wasn't anything grassroots about the tea party movement of 2008. It was 💯 astroturfed. And it still worked.

You have to fight against these things, violently. Or you will lose. There were too few of us to take the fight seriously in the US. Learn from our mistake and don't assume you won't make the same ones

The whole 51st state thing is a sham. They would become a territory or lower, something with zero rights and no vote.

This is why people in the province and on social media need to make aware what’s happening in hopes of waking them up to the reality that is headed their way should the vote to separate.

Probably will rename Canada to Northern Puerto Rico and treat it as such.

Exactly. They would end up like the CNMI, at best. There is NO WAY Americans would allow Albertans to be considered as equals.

I mean I'm Statesian and while I would love for canamerida to one day exist, I'd like it to not happen with the orange turd fire alive. I just want the good poutine without having to show a passport.

This is exactly how things were before 9/11. We go back and forth between the borders all the time for day visits, vacations. Never needed a passport.

You can once again thank a republican president for taking away more of your freedoms and pushing the patriot act down your throats.

I mean did you even say thank you?
