😆 Such a silly #Canadian #Conservative politicians... They're deliberately lying to their voters and supporters! They take a sentence out of context and invent a lie behind it that fits their fake agenda.
👍 Great job @rachelgilmore.bsky.social

Who’s going to stand up for Canada in Alberta’s separation referendum?

Apparently, no one. No one is taking this seriously even as the US Treasury Sec is licking his thin lips, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to bankroll the propaganda campaign. #abpoli #ableg

The Globalization of Canadian Rage

Countries are moving away from the US & looking towards #Canada

The West is feeling its betrayal turn into rage. The world is waking up to both its vulnerability & its value. But better late than never: We’re all Canadian now.

Respected journalist calls Smith out!

“She has to confront the separatists head on, tell them they are wrong, kick out the members of her party who signed the separation petition, & fight for the country without being just a lobbying arm of the oil industry”

Steve Bannon is the most influential person in the MAGA movement — what he says goes.
And he just promised ICE would be at the polls this November.

The message couldn’t be clearer: Republicans are planning to steal the midterms. It’s time to stop living in denial, Marc Elias writes.

One month into 2026 and Republicans are losing their minds
If Democrats win the majority, Trump’s authoritarian plan will be foiled — and he knows that.

Human rights groups across the country have condemned the portions of Bill C-12 that 'reform' Canada's immigration & refugee system. I rose in the Senate today, with my own words of warning. We can't undermine our system to appease MAGA - or Maple MAGA. #cdnpoli #abpoli #ableg #C12 #BillC12 #Canada

Good. Hold the vote tomorrow. Let’s get it out in the open and let the chips fall where they may. This whole sideshow is distracting from real issues in Alberta like health care, education, and even our upcoming budgetary concerns. Pitter-patter, please. #ABleg calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...

BC. Not sure exactly where, but I have family on the coast and I’ve always wanted to live closer to the ocean anyway. The situation in Alberta just sealed the deal. Not born here, but I’ve lived here since I was a baby.

Another data point for my argument that Alberta's biggest problem is not legitimate grievances but shitty politicians.

There are also a lot of people here that do not vote because they are’ not into politics’. There needs to be loud reminders of why their vote counts, and how politics affects them. Many also need to be reminded that sleazy politicians love hereditary voters

The UCP was elected as a federalist conservative party.

Its president has now outlined how it could officially become a separatist party and committed to let party members vote on it if the numbers line up.

Normal stuff.

7/14 This ejection signals a sensitive nerve.

PressProgress has covered this movement for years without incident. Even fellow organizer Mitch Sylvestre seemed surprised.

"Actually, I have no idea why they would target you... Jeff has definitely got his own way of things."

Rath stormed off.

Moments later, security ejected PressProgress from the venue. The reason? "Private event."

5/14 Rath’s claim?

That Carney’s invocation of NATO Article 5 regarding Greenland was a declaration of war.

It’s a debunked theory circulating on fringe social channels. When challenged on this falsehood, Rath lost his cool.
