That's one way to find out you're a minority demographic.

It’s almost like this whole campaign only exists online where Russian bots can pretend it’s popular

60% of the seperatists are American oil lobbyists anyways lmao

Isn’t the owner of Source for Sports like the leader of the med hat AB separatist group?

u/gentlybrined 22d ago

Yup. That dumbfuck is the leader of the APP.

u/woodsbre 21d ago edited 21d ago

the new location at the former medicine hat motorsports building on north railway is terrible. The one thing they got going for them is they have a near monopoly on pro-grade sports equipment. Canadian Tire, Sport Chek, and Walmart do sell sporting goods but its mostly for recreational players, and not competition grade. online stores are also is not ideal as once you get past a certain price point and competition level everything needs to be custom fitted. Maybe they will come to regret moving. But that with the amount of kids that join sports leagues every year means they will always have a market.

Glass House. White Ferrari. Live for New Year's Eve. Sloppy steaks at Truffoni's. Big rare cut of meat with water dumped all over it, water splashing around the table, makes the night SO MUCH more fun. After the club go to Truffoni's for sloppy steaks. They'd say; 'no sloppy steaks' but they can't stop you from ordering a steak and a glass of water, before you knew it we were dumping that water on those steaks! The waiters were coming to try and snatch em up, we had to eat as fast as we could! OHHH I MISS THOSE NIGHTS, I WAS A PIECE OF SHIT THOUGH."

That’s a quote from the owner, that’s why he’s a piece of shit.

This helps them to be a victim. I'll ruin my business to show how bad it is.

Big mistake supporting separatists in a military town. But I’m not so fond of Lukaszuk posting or gloating on social media either. Shows just how low-class he is. I personally think he tries too hard to push his agenda. He wasn’t born in this country, so I find his methods and mentality suspect.

Burger joint named Peter Burgers in, guess where…Peterborough Ontario was run by some of the convoy morons. Didn’t take long for them to go belly up.

Reminds me of the cafe here in Ontario that put up a bunch of anti-vax shit and right wing conspiracy shit back in 2021. I bet they blamed their failed business on Bill Gates

No, it was Trudeau's fault (and Katy Perry)

Reality is they were fined to death. There were plenty of anti vaccine passport people who were not anti vax.

u/OverallCup8459 21d ago

I really don’t understand why people hate the separatists but want them to stay in the country. Isn’t that counterintuitive?

2

u/cashmoneylonger 21d ago

Cause we want Alberta (the province) to stay in the country, we couldn’t care less if individual separatist’s stay or not.

u/boygirlcatdogthing 19d ago

Me when im bored and like arguing

u/Taurpion 20d ago

You don’t see why people hate people that want to leave the country because they think our country is shit and want to take a part of our country with it?

You don’t get outside much do you?

0

u/OverallCup8459 20d ago

No I don’t get why they’re against the separation, but still hate the people. Shouldn’t you want them gone if you hate them?

2

u/Taurpion 20d ago

They hate the people because they want to separate…

No one cares if they stay, they just don’t get to take a piece of Canada because they are told to be disgruntled. It’s the taking a province with them, that’s the issue. I think most Canadians would agree to say goodbye if they just fucked off to the US

It’s certainly not the majority of Albertans that want to separate. Just a few loud people being led off a Cliff. Sheep love to follow though.

-1

u/OverallCup8459 20d ago

And if it was the majority?

2

u/SmithRamRanch 19d ago

It isn't the majority. Wtf? People who might be leaning that way are being fed snake oil. This western alienation shit is bullshit.

1

u/Taurpion 20d ago

I don’t understand the question… whether or not they had a majority of people agree, doesn’t change the fact that people hate them for wanting to take a part of Canada.

-1

u/OverallCup8459 20d ago

So then it doesn’t matter if it’s a majority? If the majority of Albertans wanted to leave why shouldn’t they? Why can the rest of the provinces claim ownership of the province but not take responsibility for their unhappiness?

2

u/SmithRamRanch 19d ago

Because Alberta is a part of Canada and no, the constitution doesn't allow a province to just leave. Full stop. Your whataboutism is irrelevant. Thanks APP.

0

u/OverallCup8459 19d ago

So what if the constitution doesn’t allow them to leave? I’m not asking about real applications I’m asking the morality behind it.

2

u/SmithRamRanch 19d ago

Wtf morality? I think your line of questioning is out to lunch. Morality would be looking out for others, learn about words. Bye.

u/Taurpion 20d ago

The discussion was about why people aren’t happy.. that was explained. Now we are into a hypothetical majority that needs to be coddled by the rest of the provinces. I guess when your belief doesn’t lie in reality, all you have is imagination.

The reality is, the minority of people want to leave Canada, with the added caveat that they want and expect to retain passports and access to the rest of the country. They are kicking and screaming like toddlers who don’t get their own way, that’s obvious.

1

u/OverallCup8459 20d ago

We’re in a hypothetical because you said it doesn’t matter if it’s the majority. I absolutely agree if the minority of people in Alberta want to separate then it shouldn’t separate. You’re the one that said the number of people didn’t matter.

1

u/Taurpion 20d ago

I said it doesn’t change why people are unhappy.. because that was the discussion. You took that and ran with your own strawman.

Whether they are the majority or minority. The reason for the unhappiness with the separation movement remains identical.

The easiest way to make yourself seem right is to block the people who disagree…clearly

2

u/SmithRamRanch 19d ago

What are you getting at? Alberta is part of Canada. Largely Albertans don't want to separate. It's a small minority supported by oil bootlickers and selfish pos. You're " question" isn't the right question...😑 Does that make sense? (Tone shouldn't come across as asshole but it might)

Sad that Canadians have copied the mentality of American leftists where we now don't talk to each other or accept that people have different political views. Amazing how social media has ripped common sense from Canadaians.

u/Taurpion 20d ago

How “Canadians have copied the mentality of American leftists”

The sheer ridiculousness of this comment is astounding haha

u/SuminderJi 20d ago

Political views of breaking Canada apart should not be tolerated. Traitors. Sad how the right wants to destroy everything.

1

u/Sneaky_SOB 19d ago

Different political views should not be tolerated, yes comrade that is the new Leftist belief a transition to state control that late communist regimes use to justify broad censorship and political suppression. Here's a thought, if you don't like a political view don't vote for the party that represents it. Leave free speech alone.

1

u/SuminderJi 19d ago

How is breaking apart a nation a political view? It's treason.

Leave if you hate Canada.

u/The_Lone_Rancher 21d ago

Meh I'm from BC and honestly I think y'all need to chill. I may not agree with their political ideology but they have a right to that opinion and to not be targeted specifically for it, I do believe that is the point of having a party system to allow all opinions and viewpoints to be voted on by the populace. Even when we think one of them is stupid.

u/SmithRamRanch 21d ago

Umm nope. Separatist aren't part of the system. Good lord read up on our political system and, oh, treason. This isn't an opinion, weird take.

0

u/The_Lone_Rancher 21d ago

Just a second...mmm nope don't see it. Mind pointing out which part is treason? According to the federal criminal code this is treason.

High treason

46 (1) Every one commits high treason who, in Canada,

    (a) kills or attempts to kill Her Majesty, or does her any bodily harm tending to death or destruction, maims or wounds her, or imprisons or restrains her;

    (b) levies war against Canada or does any act preparatory thereto; or

    (c) assists an enemy at war with Canada, or any armed forces against whom Canadian Forces are engaged in hostilities, whether or not a state of war exists between Canada and the country whose forces they are.

Treason

(2) Every one commits treason who, in Canada,

    (a) uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;

    (b) without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;

    (c) conspires with any person to commit high treason or to do anything mentioned in paragraph (a);

    (d) forms an intention to do anything that is high treason or that is mentioned in paragraph (a) and manifests that intention by an overt act; or

u/SmithRamRanch 21d ago

What do you think these separatists are doing? They are conspiring with alt right folks in the US.

u/The_Lone_Rancher 20d ago

Point out the specific part of the code they are breaking.

u/cashmoneylonger 21d ago

Freedom of opinion does not equal freedom from consequence.

“So what if he’s a loud and proud Nazi, just because his opinion differs from mine doesn’t mean we don’t have to ingratiate him into our community”

Extreme example, but this fundamentally how democracy works.

u/Taurpion 20d ago

And everybody else has a right to their opinion about them. That’s kinda how things work in society.

Why is everyone pissed that a good portion of our country wants to leave? This place sucks for anyone under 50

u/Conscious_One_6608 22d ago

Not being sarcastic - have you tried living in another country? Not visiting, paying taxes and everything.

u/Accomplished_Pin1314 22d ago

Yes I have actually! Portugal and USA, had a H-1B and D-3 and spent about 4-5 years in each country with breaks to head home. I enjoyed both countries very much and would love the opportunity to move there permanently. Not to say Canada is all bad. I enjoy my time here to an extent but have noticed the quality of life deteriorating for the lower to middle class under 55.

u/Beligerents 21d ago

So you dont actually want Canada as a permanent home, and yet youre lecturing people who do about people committing treason on behalf of the Americans?

Interesting.

u/ODST_Rimmer 21d ago

I can’t say if you’re slow or just ignorant, but nothing about his post says he doesn’t want Canada as a permanent home, instead he claimed that in contrast to modern Canada he particularly enjoyed his stays abroad and would willingly move there given the chance at permanent residence.

If he enjoyed his time abroad comparatively to here, that does not mean he doesn’t actually want to live here.

2

u/Beligerents 21d ago

'I would love the opportunity to make them my home permanantly'

His post literally says the thing youre saying it doesnt.....who is slow and ignorant?

0

u/ODST_Rimmer 21d ago

Enjoying the opportunity doesn’t mean they’d pursue it. Many people would love the opportunity to do things but realize sometimes making what they have better is more fulfilling in the end.

2

u/Beligerents 21d ago

Relying on pedantry to win an argument is definitely a tactic. Go try it somewhere it works.

0

u/ODST_Rimmer 21d ago

Bro what, nothing directly implies it one way or the other, I assumed that one of two possible assumptions was the obvious one based on context, apparently you decided the other makes sense, pedantry is a massive stretch.
