[Canada] Canadian Politics Redux

[Bauer]

I'm reading articles that members of Danielle Smiths caucus have signed the separatist petition.  And that she said she should be premier of the new country.

Eby is right, it's treason then.

Can Alberta elect out the UCP idiots already?

Is it treason though?

She didn't accept the 500 000 000$ bribe, someone else did.  She never said she would take the money, or use it.  The other clowns pinky swear "promised" they would not touch it until Alberta was independent.

She lied to everyone, which isn't a surprise.  She always claimed she didn't want separation, just holding a referendum to vacate the question.  Some poeple seemed gullible enough to believe that.  Robert Bourassa was in the same position after the failure of Mecch Lake accord.  He refused to do it because he feared a YES victory, only entertaining the idea in public, but shutting it down privately.

Also, UCP support is rising in Alberta. They'll try to leave.

I better get my plane ticket and hotel stay paid for by the Feds in Calgary right before the referendum.

Boy you have to be some kind of idiotic to look at the current day United States and think "yes...we want that."

Have they looked at our national debt? Our giant AI bubble? Are they looking forward to having ICE rampaging through Edmonton? Are they eager for us to loot all their shit and leave them with nothing?

Ah well. Welcome suckers!
