Separatism is growing in popularity here in Quebec too. CIA send democratic aid please.

I dont even think the CIA would want Quebec tbh.

Its about destabilizing an enemy, not annexing territory. If the US wants to fuck with Carney and the british crown, we are here too.

I didn't have CIA-backed Canadian color revolution on my 2026 bingo card.

Will they go with the "Democracy activists suffering under Mark 'The Carnage' Carney" or the "this land was promised to the Albertans 2000 years ago" angle?

they're gonna rerun the covid convoy from early 2022 because they're lazy and uncreative, but this time also implicate trans people and like, indian immigrants or something. it will work because canadians are just a shinier breed of amerihog.

Chuds mald about that convoy and the chuds supposedly being stopped from using their bank accounts forever...but from my understanding they were given back control shortly after lmao

Like they always do.

God, this second Cold War is so bloody boring and predictable. I've seen it all before. It's not even the kind of darkly amusing fun I expected out of living through a Cold War. It's just recycled uncreative bullshit.

These separatist cranks have been in Alberta since the days of King George VI. It's never gonna go anywhere.

The goal is to implement project 2025 in America and spread it globally.
