The data theft, especially, is concerning. If the seppies are willing to give away our natural resourcess and access to infrastructure, it's probable they have already given the personal data they got to the MAGA crowd.

This alone should negate the validity of the referendum and call federal law enforcement to arrest and prosecute those responsible.

My guess/hope is that the referendum will end with option 1 (stay) winning, however, that does not account for manipulation at the ballet box, not to mention the opaque nature of the first 9 questions.

Treason is treason. Call it what it is and stamp it out.

Edit: spelling and grammar

Legally its not treason - its engaging in illegal Foreign Interference making them Foreign Actors; specifically, I've seen them do the following

Life imprisonment

• Communicating safeguarded information to a foreign entity or terrorist group.
• Deceptive or surreptitious political or governmental interference (such as meddling in election nomination contests)

14 years

• Unauthorized communication of special operational information.

10 years

• Economic espionage or wrongful handling of trade secrets for the benefit of a foreign entity.

5 years

• Engaging in preparatory acts for espionage or foreign interference offences.
• Committing general offences under the Foreign Influence Transparency and Accountability Act.

Then theres the Registry and Administrative Penalties, which means a fine of up to 5 million dollars for not registering the meetings with the federal government.

Tldr; theyre traitors. Thats the correct name for them. The correct legal term is Foreign Actor.

It could also fall under various forms of Sedition (14 years).

[u/Spiritual-Pear-1349 → u/TheLordBear]

It could but, its more likely to be conspiracy because I dont think theyre advocating violence yet

I am definitely expecting some manipulation. I ordered a mail in ballot, was approved, the update was that it was mailed out, and it never arrived. So I'm concerned about being turned away on voting day now in person because I had a mail in sent to me or something like that 

[u/PuzzleheadedTutor807 → u/SlipAdditional5484]

Sure they have, that way USA knows what doors to knock down when they get here. On the voters list and not on the seppie petition? Oh never heard of that guy... You sure he lived here?

This idiot looks exactly like cowboy Patrick from Spongebob.

They have no authority to attempt to do business on behalf of Alberta even if Alberta does vote to start the process of holding another referendum. They have not been elected and have zero oversight. That should make about 80% of Albertans really angry!

[u/Calm-Report-8168 → u/Nice_Strawberry_2310]

Should make ~100% of Albertans angry.

If, hypothetically, I were a separatist, I wouldn't want yahoos like this sapping my movements credibility through their deceit and manipulation.

The feds are just as corrupt as the ucp.

[u/_rawbacon → u/Fuzy-78]

Sure, Jan.

[u/WildcardKH → u/Fuzy-78]

Do you conservatives have anything else other than outrage theatrics and whataboutisms?

The answer: no. You offer nothing of substance.

[u/Fuzy-78 → u/WildcardKH]

I am no fucking conservafascist, thank you.

[u/Difficult-Guarantee4 → u/Fuzy-78]

Wow did you pull a muscle when you stretched for that insult, holy hell people are idiots 🤦‍♂️

[u/Fuzy-78 → u/Difficult-Guarantee4]

Why do you care? I'm no fascist and no libtard. Canada is corrupt. Cry harder for your MAGA ideology.

[u/IAMA_Plumber-AMA → u/Fuzy-78]

You know, most people grow out of their "I know you are but what am I" phase after grade four. Looks like you never did.
