@claudiacm1146 Talking sweet to us won't work. Until she and other francophone politicians in Quebec admit that anglos deserve equal rights, she's just another bigot.
I’m going to say what everyone is too scared to say.
Canada is under attack. Not with missiles. With data. With money. With useful idiots waving provincial flags while American operatives pull the strings from Michigan boardrooms.
3 million Albertans doxxed. The US Ambassador’s fingerprints on the weapon. UCP insiders in the room watching it happen. Trump officials holding secret meetings about carving up this country like it’s a real estate deal. Because to them? IT IS.
Trump said it himself. 51st state. He wasn’t joking. He never jokes.
And while all of this is happening, @PierrePoilievre , the man who wants to lead this country, is hiding under his desk hoping nobody asks him which side he’s on. PIERRE.
The guy who built his entire career screaming about government overreach can’t find his voice when a foreign government is actively funding the dismemberment of Canada?
What do you know, Pierre? What are you afraid of?
Because here’s what I see. A movement that appeared out of nowhere. Fully funded. Fully organized. With American tech. American strategy. American money. And an American ambassador running interference in plain sight.
This isn’t Alberta vs Ottawa.
This is foreign acquisition.
They’re not trying to free Alberta.
They’re trying to own it.
The oil. The land. The leverage.
And some of our own politicians are either too compromised, too cowardly, or too bought to stop it.
Canada is not for sale.

As a child, the French school system rejected me. I was furious. Now I see it differently — I dodged a bullet. My English education gave me a grounding in rights, pluralism, and respect for the individual that shaped who I am. I wouldn't trade it. #polqc#Charter
ICE is primarily made up of Proud Boys who’ve been designated as a terrorist group in Canada. So no. They shouldn’t be allowed in Canada or Toronto during the World Cup. Or anytime for that matter. Arrest their asses and lock them up if they show up.
MAGA dipshits are still telling me “worry about your own country” when their guy:
-Slapped tariffs on everything
-Threatens our sovereignty with his 51st state rhetoric
-Calls our PM “Governor”
-Started a fucking war causing our gas prices to skyrocket
SIT. THE. FUCK. DOWN. MAGA.
I just sat through the entire 2-hour and 23-minute @joerogan Experience interview with @PierrePoilievre you don't have to. ⏱️
Yes, I survived the deep dives into Russian kettlebell history, 90s kickboxing, and Bobby Orr's knees to extract the actual political substance.
Between the MMA tangents, Poilievre dropped a bunch of claims. Some are actually spot-on (yes, it happens even with Poilievre), some are missing massive context, and a couple directly contradict his own record.
I’m bringing the receipts. 🧾 Over the next 5 posts, we are going to reality-check: 🔍 The Top 3 biggest testable claims 🩴 2 major political flip-flops

@RosieRocks29 Alberta is an entitled brat. A coddled adolescent soaked in grievance culture that is manipulated by populist politicians for their own advantage.
Shame on you for believing their dishonest narratives.
🇨🇦Canada does not have free healthcare.
Canadians, a compassionate people, have decided to collectively pay the healthcare costs of every citizen and permanent resident of Canada.
We all collectively together pay for each other’s and everyone’s publicly delivered healthcare.
These self-pitying types never add up the money that flowed into the Prairies from Eastern Canada from ca. 1867 to 1967 (or to the '90s, as Saskatchewan was a perpetual have-not). They really think the early West developed on its tiny tax base of a few hundred people and steers.
Roberge says Bill 9 is needed so Quebecers can be free! 🤦♀️ Nobody is free until we're ALL free. You can't pick & choose the ones who look like you. He needs an ethics class, or several. #bill9#CAQ#polqc
