“Very, very senior” officials in the Trump administration have had secret meetings with far-right Canadian separatists trying to shake the foundations of the country. The covert meetings between high-ranking U.S. officials and the Alberta Prosperity Project come as a widening rift appears between Canadian leadership and the White House. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney used a speech in Davos, Switzerland, last week to call out President Trump for creating a “rupture” in the existing world order.

As we approach a leadership review in the federal CPC, I want to remind everyone that Smith didn't start this.

Jason Kenney was the instigator of Alberta separatism.

It was Kenney who starting using the "Sovereign Alberta" rhetoric. It was Kenney who invited separatists to the table.

Jason Kenney lit this dumpster fire, handed a can of gas to a deranged arsonist (Smith), and then severed his ties and ran.

Canadians need to remember this. Canada need to know that Kenney is willing to destroy Canada for his own gains.

You are correct that Smith didn't start it. Problem is she just kept on running with the ball instead of stopping ... so she's just as much at fault as Kenney is.

Oh don't get me wrong, she is MASSIVELY at fault here. She has been courting separation since she was just a shitty radio voice. In the last year she has changed the laws three times to make things easier for the separatists.

But Kenney is going to make a run for the CPC leadership when Poilievre is turfed, and he's going to lie about being a strong federalist.

I want to make sure EVERYONE knows how happy he is to burn down the country.

Does Alberta care? or the Right Wing? As soon as l'il PP failed, they put this asshole fake insurance broker American back in charge of the party. Regina has elected this clown for 20 years.

He actively sought US citizenship, pays taxes in the US. When running for PM, he stated he was actively renouncing his US citizenship in 2019 but gee, that turned out to be another of his fucking lies.
