The message is up on behalf of Cory Morgan and a third-party advertising organization, Pathway to Independence.

I wondered who Cory Morgan was, so I looked him up and lo and behold:

Advertisement for the book "The Sovereigntist's Handbook" by Cory Morgan

It's an advertising campaign.

It's always a scam with these guys, huh?

Off with their heads. Metaphorically.

A lot of these separatists are yank wannabes. I suspect if someone were to map pro-separation sentiment to Trump approval in Alberta over time they would find a strong correlation. Well, Trump hasn't had a great few months since early 2026 when the last poll was done. As goes his popularity, so goes the popularity of separatism.

It seems like the idea is to build a movement that expands beyond protecting tenant's rights and into political advocacy, including running aligned candidates.

Well don't worry, this administration has a tried and true solution. If you stop checking for screwworm, it's not there.

"Musk again has been interfering in our politics in the last few days, trying to whip up division. That is not who we are in Britain,"

Strong words.

Over the course of several caucus meetings now, Grit MPs report Carney lashing out at certain members when he doesn’t like the message they deliver. They include [...] being told not to come to the prime minister with his concerns over the lack of federal response to Alberta’s two-tiered health care Bill 11

Klaxons should be going off in your mind.

The Heritage Department said in a statement on Wednesday that the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)'s new requirements would "impose costs" on streamers "which could ultimately fall on Canadian consumers through higher prices."

"This is not the time to raise the cost for Canadians," Prime Minister Mark Carney told reporters after meeting with his cabinet.

The government also said it is investing $600 million to "provide stability and immediate support to Canada's audio and audiovisual sectors and to keep our culture accessible and affordable for all Canadians."

Oh, so instead of reclaiming any profit out of an American company we'll just shake it out of Canadian pockets instead.

They building this shit in your backyard? Putting this data centre in downtown Vancouver is fucking moronic.

While Willson attended an information seeking session this past April hosted by the Alberta government, he said there was no formal consultation.

"We're not being brought to the table initially. We should be the first ones anybody talks to," said Willson.

"They shouldn't be going to industry and having discussions with the industry and then trying to push something through on us. That's not what reconciliation is about."

Hey, the one trick pony is doing its trick. Again.

Of course, the US uses prison labour so if we were to really do our due diligence on this we would have to cut out the US, too. Which they understand. This is an attempt to control who we trade with, ideally (in their view) only them.
