#wexit you hate Canada because you (mistakenly) think you can localize your chauvinistic bootlicking.
We hate Canada because of its colonial apartheid regime that has sponsored attacks on its own people and inspired historical genocides.
We are not the same.

Our treasonous Alberta government is making backroom deals to secure Trump's funding (to the tune of $500 million) and support, including the use of their violent paramilitary nationalist forces, to push for Alberta's separation from Canada.

'“I met the senior U.S. administrative officials just a couple steps away from the president himself,” recalled Dennis Modry, the former CEO of the Alberta Prosperity Project, a group devoted to pushing Alberta toward self-determination through a provincial referendum.

“We talked about a $500 million transition loan that we would only draw down on as necessary as we work with the U.S. to transition from a province to a country,” said Modry. He also claimed that they discussed a plan to prop up Alberta’s currency where “the U.S. agrees to take every Alberta citizen’s Canadian dollar and then exchange it for one U.S. dollar.”

When a member of the audience asked how an independent Alberta would control immigration, Peter Downing, speaking on behalf of the America Fund, said, “Well, they [America] got this wonderful agency called ICE,” referring to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that has triggered massive protests across the U.S. due to its aggressive raids on immigrant communities.

America, Downing explained, has “got a lot of bad dudes, tough dudes with guns,” and ICE is “willing to deal with it and send them all back.”

But David Parker, a former federal and provincial Conservative staffer who is the founder of Take Back Alberta, a conservative political advocacy group, highlighted mass immigration as a key motivator for seeking provincial independence.

“If Canada continues to bring in the number of people that they are at the rate that they are, it will be a failed state,” he said, “It’s being used to dilute the population. They’re degrading our quality of life, our medical system, our health care, our education system. It’s all falling apart because of mass immigration.”'

Now I want you to take particular note of that last statement. Take Back Alberta's founder said anti-immigration is "a key motivator in seeking provincial independence." “It’s being used to dilute the population. They’re degrading our quality of life, our medical system, our health care, our education system.”

Diluting the population and degrading our way of life? That's textbook Supremacy talk.

While Peter Downing for the America fund said, "[America's] got a lot of bad dudes, tough dudes with guns,” and ICE is “willing to deal with it and send them all back.”

So they want Alberta to become a violent anti-immigration police state overrun by Proud Boys doling out vigilante punishment to non-Whites.

This is much worse than I even imagined.

I've heard it said that Quebec's separatist movement is ethnonationalist while questioning what's holding Alberta's separatist movement together. Well, sorry to say but evidence shows the same glue.

'The identity of Alberta in opposition to the rest of Canada came up a lot at the event.

Albertans can be narrowly defined as ‘hard-workers’, according to The Western Standard publisher and president Derek Fildebrandt, adding that Albertans are less deferential towards institutions compared to Ontarians.

The province has always had “a more American ethos,” he said. “It was not peace, order, and good government; it was life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.”

"Dozens of states," explains Davies, from the America Fund, “have either passed legislation or are passing legislation for the Convention of States.” He was referring to the movement with ties to the Texas evangelical pastor and oil billionaire Tim Dunn, which aims to implement Project 2025-like policy through permanent constitutional change and is receiving endorsements from politicians such as Sarah Palin, Fox News host Sean Hannity, and numerous members of the Trump administration and cabinet.

Modry said that if the separatists at the event were successful in passing an independence referendum, they could potentially count on Trump or the U.S. Secretary of State to back the outcome.

He claimed that this is a request he made to U.S. officials during their meeting in Washington: “At the time of the successful referendum, you acknowledge Alberta sovereignty, to the Alberta government and to the rest of the world.”'

A great piece from Calgary academic Lisa Young - with the wrong headline. Racism isn’t the underbelly of the Alberta separatist campaign. It’s the icing that’s poured all over the top of the cake. It has been, ever since the days of Jim Keegstra and Doug Christie - but it’s even more brazen now. https://thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025/07/08/Ugly-Underside-Alberta-Separatism/ #ableg #abpoli #Alberta #Wexit #cdnpoli #immigration

Danielle Smith is the least popular Premier in the country, and the reason is obvious. She doesn't see herself as Canadian.
