Hasn’t it been said the propaganda driving this is from the USA?
Yes. Look at the amount of maple MAGAts wrapped in they grotesque US flag when they’re at separation rallies.
Let’s call it what it is: An annexation vote, not separation.
Its part of the technocracy nonsense driven by Elon’s family, Thiel, etc…
It's deeper than that. It's century-old grievances bundled with anti-vaxers losing their minds during covid lockdowns (border blocking, trucker circle jerks, shutting down Ottawa, etc.). Once covid was done they needed a new cause and the seditionists locked on to that rage.
The Fifth Estate (CBC) has an excellent short doc on it.
Yep, they sound like the same people. There is this very similar messaging all these people have in every country.
I want to say let them separate and find out they can’t do it. But this is what the US wants and you guys can’t risk it happening.
It not deep at all. This is fomented by foreign groups seeking to destabilize Canada. A tiny group of idiots are having their beleifs inflamed and funded to cause Canada internal strife.
It IS way deeper than just the stuff happening right now. The problems go back many decades, almost a century.

Welcome to the club. Problems are externally influenced but solutions are expected to be driven internally.
I really hate the wedge between the US and Canada. You all are rad.
It also slowed down for about a day or two after Ukraine hit that russian data centre
You gotta have regional redundancy if you want to be taken seriously, multi cloud is the way to go.
Immigrunts taking our jerbs, voting in our erections, getting free hospitals.
