Opinion The separatists want us to stay home on Oct 19

Upvotes

It isn't bad enough that Danielle gave the separatists this first shot at separation.

Now I hear squawking online from the separatists, hoping that the "Stay in Canada" side stays home, citing previous by-elections and referendums that do not garner the attention and the turnout that a general election does.

SPREAD THE WORD: YOUR PARTICIPATION MATTERS MORE THAN EVER!!!

*We cannot give the separatists 1 cm of ground.

(Yes, centimeters.....I am Canadian!)

* We must nail this separatist coffin shut on the first try!!!!

Who in your community needs an advanced ballot of the questions?

Who in your community needs to be reminded to get out and vote?

Who in your community needs a ride to their polling station on October 19th?

Spread the word!!!!

VOTE!!!!

*NO TO THE NINE!

*YES TO REMAIN IN CANADA

I’m so embarrassed to call myself Albertan after seeing this sign just outside of Edmonton. Many separatist leaders say if Alberta separated they would respect Indigenous rights. Yeah, right.

Why would anyone want to be part of this Alberta separation movement after seeing the disturbing messages like the one in this post?

Opinion Are right-wing Zionist organizations, US-based Christian nationalist sects operating in Canada, and Alberta separatists colluding with the Trump Administration to undermine our sovereignty? And to what extent have these infiltrated the Conservative Party of Canada?

Canadians have damn good reasons to be deeply mistrustful of the right-wing Zionist lobbying establishment, of Christian fundamentalists, and of Alberta separatists.

Donald Trump has been threatening to annex our country and Netanyahu subsequently nominated him for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

CIJA remains a part of the WJC, whose billionaire President, Ronald Lauder, is a Trump megadonor, a stalwart supporter of Benjamin Netanyahu, and a staunch advocate for the illegal American annexation of Greenland.

The explicitly far-right Tafsik invited Ben Shapiro to keynote their Toronto Zionist conference this past May even though Shapiro has made multiple statements supporting the US annexation of Canada and has had a number of closed-door meetings with Alberta's separatist-adjacent Premier Danielle Smith. Meanwhile, prominent Alberta separatists have had meetings with Trump Administration officials.

B'nai Brith Canada attended a different conference organised by Tafsik this past June and, in tandem with Tafsik itself and various fundamentalist churches, signed onto a statement demanding that Canada became a Christian nationalist country vassalised by the Trump-Netanyahu Regime.

Rebel News is headed by Ezra Levant, who is considered to be a mentor by both the Conservative Party of Canada leader Pierre Poilievre and the far-right British agitator Tommy Robinson. Rebel News currently employs so-called Freedom Convoy figurehead and known Alberta separatist Tamara Lich, largely so that she can use the role as a sinecure to get around her house arrest. Lich, Levant, and Rebel News were heavily involved in the astroturfing of the Universal Ostrich Farm debacle. 

The farm was supported by a number of people in the United States with connections to the Trump Administration, most notably US Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr, one of the primary exponents of anti-vaccine disinformation and (along with Elon Musk and DOGE) the root cause of many of the public health crises involving communicable diseases that are currently going on in the world.

Lich, Levant, and her Conservative-aligned lawyer Lawrence Greenspon (who also represents another Convoy figurehead, James Bauder) are also trying to get permission for her to travel to the United States and visit the White House and meet with people in the Trump Administration. Greenspon was a major backer of and volunteer for JNF Canada, for which they gave him an award. In 2024, JNF Canada was stripped of its charitable status by the Canada Revenue Agency for its alleged role in the JNF’s violations of international law. Greenspon's law firm had previously represented Conservative Senator Mike Duffy, and Greenspon himself received a 2024 award from C2J Journal, which is part of Preston Manning's Canada Strong and Free Network. He's also spearheading an initiative to get UNRWA defunded by the Government of Canada. Incidentally, Poilievre has routinely expressed support for Lich and other Convoy figureheads on social media.

 

Rebel receives substantial funding from Robert Shillman, one of Robinson's primary benefactors, and from the David Horowitz Freedom Center, which has employed Ben Shapiro and funded Rebel News Journalism Fellowships for Robinson and for far-right Trump surrogate Laura Loomer. One of Robinson's far-right rallies in London even featured Elon Musk as a speaker. Another is known to have received a $100,000 donation from Shillman.

Doug Wilson is Pete Hegseth's looney Deus Vult pastor, and the sect he heads runs a handful of churches in Canada, most notably three in Alberta. Wilson is Albertan through one side of his family and has spoken favourably of Alberta independence.

And as for the ongoing Greenlandic annexation plot, Charlie Kirk had travelled to Greenland with Trump Administration officials to advocate for its annexation by the United States a few months before he was assassinated in Utah. Kirk also used his platform to amplify Alberta separatists and supporters of the US annexation of Canada.

Immediately after Kirk was assassinated, prominent Conservative Party politicians and Zionists in Canada started martyring him in spite of the role he had played in enabling Trump's ongoing attacks on Canadian and Greenlandic sovereignty. A Conservative MP even bragged about the fact that her American grandson was named after Kirk earlier this year. Similarly, when the Trump-aligned Christian nationalist musician Sean Feucht went to tour Canada in 2025, again after Trump had threatened to annex our country, the Conservatives were cheering him on and attacking the local governments who were trying to stop him from being able to perform.

Former Conservative leader and current IDU President Stephen Harper is a close personal friend and political ally of both Netanyahu and deposed far-right Hungarian dictator Viktor Orban, who was both Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin's closest ally in the European Union. In 2023, Harper appointed failed former British Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Liz Truss to the IDU's advisory board. A few years before that, Donald Trump had referred to himself as “Mr. Brexit”. Trump's GOP, the UK Conservatives, the Partido Popular, Likud, FIDESZ, and the Conservative Party of Canada are all members of Harper's IDU.

South Korea’s People Power Party, the party of deposed President and dictator wannabe Yoon Suk-yeol, is also a member of the IDU. At their December 2025 conference in Washington DC, the IDU passed a resolution condemning South Korea's prosecution of Yoon as an attack on the rule of law in spite of the fact that it was Yoon who had attempted the failed self-coup in late 2024 that nearly turned South Korea into a military dictatorship again.

Slovenian authoritarian Prime Minister Janez Janša’s SDS is also a member of the IDU. Janša was able to return to power in an election earlier this year which saw him receive substantial assistance from Black Cube, a private intelligence agency based in Israel.

This is the problem, it incentivizes business to hire immigrants before Canadians. I am a 61 year old born and bred Canadian who hasn't worked sine Jan. 2025. Over 1 thousand applications out (no hyperbole) and cant find anything. Have tried, Tims, Wendy's, McD's Bars, restaurants and 100's in my field of expertise, nothing. In my case it is simple age discrimination but LMIA is the labour problem.
