Canadians may have difficulty believing the U.S. government’s new commitment.

    Who could have guessed the separatist movement would be left flapping in the wind after their resounding defeat?

    I thought they were denying any meetings even took place.

      IIRC those meetings were purportedly about exporting Albertan oil.

    Next up: Quebec separatists.

      I’d say that Quebec separatists are a slightly different ball of wax. That movement started before Canada or the US were even countries.

        Yes; the difference is they just won an election.

          28% of the vote. Hardly a resounding separatist vote.

      They tried that before way back in the 90s. It didn’t fly.

      Listen to Chantal before you worry about anything.

      Tl;dr - completely different grievances. America doesn’t want them. They don’t give a shit what America thinks. Highly unlikely any referendum will happen.

      The party that win Quebec’s election is a separatist party but they said they won’t push for it for as long as the Trump problem exists.

      I feel that if an American representative tried to talk to them they’d tell them to “manger de la marde”

        The US will exist after Trump. Unless Quebec plans to join France then separating won’t happen.

          Quebec historically hated France more than the English who conquered them in part because continental france has always looked down upon their American colonies and sold them for cheap for sugar islands. Quebec became an entirely separate nation from france at that point

      This would only happen if the Americans spoke French. And proper Québécois French, not Parisian French.

    The Alberta separatist movement looks identical to the maga movement.

    People don’t understand geopolitics. It’s probably the same masterminds behind it that created maga. Politics isn’t organic, it’s an industry and manipulated.

    Most people are groomed and indoctrinated to not understand. And I invite everybody to come understand reality on their on own timeline and on their own terms… Without all the bullshit pop marketed cultures put on you to maintain a certain image of what normal is.
