  • Criminal charges are federal in Canada, but charges are laid by crown prosecutors in that particular province (never by the government itself)

    I don’t think this actually meets the definition of treason, as they aren’t using violence and are going the legislative/referendum route: https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/section-46.html

    1. Every one commits treason who, in Canada,

    a) uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;

    b) without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;

    c) conspires with any person to commit high treason or to do anything mentioned in paragraph (a);

    d) forms an intention to do anything that is high treason or that is mentioned in paragraph (a) and manifests that intention by an overt act; or

    e) conspires with any person to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) or forms an intention to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) and manifests that intention by an overt act.








  • There are a lot of countries willing to mock them on their military might

    This is just people memeing on them for their lackluster performance in WWII. Say what you will about that, but they certainly learned their lesson - since then they’ve been a military powerhouse, frankly the only European country that consistently pulls its weight in that respect. If other EU countries were Gaullist their combined military would outclass the US.

    And that’s not even getting into their “nuke first, ask quesitons later” policy.
