In a remarkable omission, this article on young people involved in Alberta separatism shouts out the podcast of two young women interviewed—but fails to mention what sort of programming they produce! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A screencap of a CBC article, accessed online on August 28 2026 at https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-quebec-separation-youth-vote-9.7317726. "Where do young people stand in Alberta's separation debate?" The headline image features two far-right social media influencers, MayCee and Madison Holmes.

A screencap of a YouTube title card, taken August 28 2026. Madison and MayCee Holmes are hosting a collaborative episode with two fascist conspiracy theory channels, 'Canadian Patriot Press' and 'SuperSpreaders.' It is titled "Black Sun (Esoteric Fascism)"

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.
