“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.

Oh this is in ties to Alberta huh, good jail smith and her allys immediately for treason.

Edit: reason I didn t suggest hanging is cuz I think our gov would be to spineless to go that far and honestly its not necessary, jailing them is at least effective in removing the largest source of maga influence in Canada.

Fuck jail treason punishment should be ideally swift and permanent Canada gonna have to start cleaning their house soon because the parasite are starting to be everywhere

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Treason is death by hanging in Canada.

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago

Fun fact, treason is an indictable offense and therefore you can perform a citizens arrest on someone engaging in or conspiring to treason.

You'll be cleaning out my neighbourhood for sure. Anyone want to come be my neighbour after the purge? I mean I'm normal. Buddy who's my garage neighbor out back, he's normal too. Otherwise we are essentially surrounded by fucktards.

I mean jokes aside not everyone's a separatist obviously (like maybe 3 in 10 are), but that doesn't mean they don't endlessly whine and complain about, ahem

"HhhhhhhoooooooottttttttttaaaaaaaaaWHHHAAAAAAA "

and on and on until you want to stick a fork in your eyeball. Most days I want to self purge myself.

I live in one of the 2 separatist province and i’ve seen some pro-ice banner so yeah lot of fucktard

Lots of normal folk too but the dumbfuck always shout the loudest so people think there more of them and 1 of them is already too many

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

I think we live in the same province.

I also used to drive by a haystack that had, "COVID is a hoax" spray painted on it, so I mean that's where we currently are..

[–] nyan@lemmy.cafe 19 points 2 months ago

Probably is actual treason this time and not just sedition, given the conspiracy part.

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 18 points 2 months ago

Good things they're all removed and are going to have to go through a civil war before that'll pan out.

As we approach a leadership review in the federal CPC, I want to remind everyone that Smith didn't start this.

Jason Kenney was the instigator of Alberta separatism.

It was Kenney who starting using the "Sovereign Alberta" rhetoric. It was Kenney who invited separatists to the table.

Jason Kenney lit this dumpster fire, handed a can of gas to a deranged arsonist (Smith), and then severed his ties and ran.

Canadians need to remember this. Canada need to know that Kenney is willing to destroy Canada for his own gains.

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You are correct that Smith didn't start it. Problem is she just kept on running with the ball instead of stopping ... so she's just as much at fault as Kenney is.

[–] swordgeek@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Oh don't get me wrong, she is MASSIVELY at fault here. She has been courting separation since she was just a shitty radio voice. In the last year she has changed the laws three times to make things easier for the separatists.

But Kenney is going to make a run for the CPC leadership when Poilievre is turfed, and he's going to lie about being a strong federalist.

I want to make sure EVERYONE knows how happy he is to burn down the country.

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

It doesn't matter who started it, it matters who supports it.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Does Alberta care? or the Right Wing? As soon as l'il PP failed, they put this asshole fake insurance broker American back in charge of the party. Regina has elected this clown for 20 years.

He actively sought US citizenship, pays taxes in the US. When running for PM, he stated he was actively renouncing his US citizenship in 2019 but gee, that turned out to be another of his fucking lies.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Would be nice if the federal gov't throws the book at them when they have a case.

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

It is required or we encourage more treason.

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Sounds like Miller, but who knows how many mini-chuda are infesting the administration

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

This is an act of war

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

We won't do anything. Tamara Lich and assholes all commited acts that were clearly terrorism and the crown came after her with the weakest sauce possible.
