Mark Hill @mehill.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I appreciate the CBC’s commitment to showing me experiences and perspectives I’d never have myself but did we really need a “I’m separation-curious due to vibes” essay www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...cbc.caFIRST PERSON | I don't know many committed separatists. But I know people who are angry and hungry for change | CBC NewsMatthew Morin is a Calgary resident who is drawn toward Alberta separatism because daily life feels more precarious and he feels those on top don’t seem to care. 120

Mark Hill @mehill.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Don't announce the date like that. That's how you get the plot of a thriller called, like, The Quebec Entanglement. 110
Mark Hill @mehill.bsky.social · 08/10/2026My best guess is that they're being run through something to colorise and restructure them, but who knows. It's like watching an alien try to make a meme page. 110
