“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.

    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.
