Mayor of Calgary: "It's really rich to see from some of these leaders in the separatist movement, they talk about freedom, sovereignty. And when they go down south of the border, offering our water, our land, our oil, this is not about taking back Alberta, this is about selling out Alberta."

It strikes me that one separatist’s offer to sell water to US in exchange for state recognition makes vanishingly little sense in Alberta, a land that’s so water scarce, especially within several hundred km of the border.

This story, about the links between the top Alberta independence social media account and a well known separatist leader that I did with @jeffyates.bsky.social, has been pretty well read today. There have also been some common questions, so I'm going to add my 2 cents! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The account Rise of Alberta is anonymous and drives four times as much engagement as the next most popular account.

Jason Kenney was Premier at the time, and he failed to protect these workers. He was subsequently ousted by UCP members for doing too much. Now Danielle wants to strip immigrant workers of healthcare. These workers were designated as a vital workforce once, but treated as anything but. 😡
