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

I dont even think the CIA would want Quebec tbh.

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.

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

Not with that attitude, and not without CIA funding!!
