To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

THE P.B.O. IS WARNING OF THE COLLAPSE OF CANADA…

…and no one seems to care.

Liberal appointed budget watchdog warns Carney's overspending will collapse Canada.

THIS IS KIND OF A BIG DEAL.

(We might want to pay attention!!)

[Let Alberta Decide @LetABDecide]

After yesterday’s successful launch, one thing is clear:

Alberta’s done waiting.

Over 6K new followers joined us on X in one day, and we’re grateful to everyone who has donated so far.

Thank you for helping us build the campaign to win the referendum.

🚨 BREAKING: Edward Snowden risked his life to expose the US government secretly using tech companies to spy on Americans.

Bill C-22 just passed in Canada and it does the exact same thing except this time it isn’t secret.

The Carney government is doing in PUBLIC, what the Obama administration tried to do in private.

The Liberals can now order Google, Apple, Bell, Rogers, Meta, X, Signal, anyone, to hand over your data in SECRET.

They are legally banned from telling you.

No warrant.

No judge.

No notice.

They didn’t even bother to hide it.

… SHAME ON YOU LIBERAL MPS. SHAME ON YOU!!!
… You are the only ones enabling Mark Carney, a rogue, unaccountable dictator who is deliberately destroying our economy and country.
… This week you have enabled his establishment of a surveillance state over all our lives, violating all our rights and freedoms. And now, for no clear reason, and without debate or consideration by the Canadian people, you have enabled him to return the use of banned pesticides. Pesticides which have been proven to damage our health.
… You have enabled him further sabotaging our trade relationship with our most important partner and closest neighbour. And he throws away billions of our dollars a week, most of it disappearing into the pockets of international criminals like his Brookfield associates.
… Do you not see that all this is his deliberate agenda?? Why do you continue to cheer him on, grovelling on your knees to please him? Do you not see the obvious, that you are complicit in the destruction of your own lives and the people that you are supposed to represent? Every one of you is 100% responsible for this.
… SHAME ON ALL OF YOU. SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!

🔥 TREASON! 🍁

LCol (Ret’d) David Redman is dead right.

As a retired Military Police Warrant Officer who served on Air Marshal protective details for Prime Ministers and Governors General, I’ve seen what real threats to Canada look like and deliberate mass immigration with zero vetting is one of them.

Importing over a million people a year, many un-screened for criminality or loyalty, while our own citizens can’t find housing or safe streets? That’s not “compassion.” That’s betrayal for votes.

No background checks. No loyalty to Canada required. No regard for the consequences.

This isn’t incompetence anymore, it’s treason against the Canadian people.

Canada First means secure borders and citizens come first. Full stop.

[Salty Albertan @FringedCanuck]

Sitting in a Mom and Pop Coffee Shop in Kelowna by myself. The atmosphere was pleasant,pictures dawned every corner of the shop. Memories of days past. Plants and flowers brought a delightful colour to the space. I found a small table next to a window.

Across from me was a table of 15 people,seniors and I’m guessing their middle aged children came down for a family outing. Age range was 95-22. ( guessing,I did hear one of them say ole Grandma B was gonna be 95.)

The conversation was about the Liberal Party. After listening a while I realized BC is far more based than I thought. The great grandmother was the loudest of them all, spunky old bird. She bellowed, “ I remember when we grabbed our politicians by the throat and drag them through town while the people threw rocks and fruit at them. I remember ropes and trees for traitorous politicians”. “This gawd damn country needs a Lee Harvey Oswald moment to get these sons of bitches in line”! She then proceeded to bang the table with her hand. “My husband,God Rest His Soul”. He did not die for this Country and our Freedom to have it stripped away”! Her daughter ( I believe) leaned over and whispered something in her ear that seemed to calm her. I saw a family in agreement with her. I saw a family worried about the future of Canada. Also to my surprise Alberta Independence came up. They also agreed that Alberta should separate from Canada. They also stated they would move back to Alberta if it happened.

When Canadian Families gather and the topic of conversation is the demise of Canada and its ill fated leaders,I can guarantee that other families across Canada,have had the same conversation. Repeatedly.

Our Politicians should tread lightly.
Last time I heard a conversation like that,Pierre Trudeau was in power. Canada was on the brink of a revolt.

Our Politicians better dummy up,it’s not like Canadians to speak this way. You know you’ve gone too far when they are talking about the Train Yard.

We are NOT as docile as they may think.

Their arrogance will be their downfall.

11, 12, and 14 years old.

Raped for days by more than 20 Pakistani immigrants.

Tortured—one had her tongue nailed to the wall to keep her still while they raped her.

The police ridiculed, insulted, and ignored them.

The feminists turned the other way.

If it hadn't been for Elon Musk, who publicly shared the trial testimonies, sparking outrage from Reform UK and internal investigations, no one would have known anything.

You're not angry enough.

Do you think these two facts are related? 🤔

[Komrade Rose says #CarneyMustGo🇨🇦 @RoseAlberta1]

Turning Point USA has done a short about Alberta Independence!

This is really well done.

Alberta and Saskatchewan ARE the power houses of Canada. When you watch this, it puts into perspective how badly we are managed by Ottawa:

[Aaron Gunn @AaronGunn]

Wow. Shocked today to watch the Liberals and NDP vote against protecting the private property rights of Canadian homeowners.

When a citizen pays their taxes, follows the law, maintains their property and still cannot be certain that they own their own home, something has gone profoundly wrong.

Private property rights are not a luxury, nor an appendage to our system of government.

They are not some kind of optional add-on to our society or to our democracy.

They are quite literally the foundation on which Western civilization, capitalism and our economy are built.

For me, the defence of private property is and always will be a red line.

It is in every way a fundamental human right, and we must never submit to trade it away in the name of political convenience.

Every citizen deserves to know that their government will do whatever it takes to ensure that Canadians can trust that what they own is truly theirs.

Without exception.

[Bubbleslake @bubbleslake]

Many of us are not who you would expect as "hard core"
I am nearing 60 years old, lived all my life in Alberta since I was 2 years old. I am also Metis. I worked hard since I was 14. I just paid off my mortgage. I am a mother and a grandmother. I am a christian with strong family values. I have lived through both Trudeaus and the damage they did to my province. I had a glimmer of hope when it looked like Pierre would become PM. When he didn't, that was the start of my lean to separate. Carney only had a minority so some checks and balances were still still possible. Then Carney manufactured an illegitimate majority and all that disappeared. Basically, shutting down committees where the opposition can hold him to account.
Then the requirements he put on Alberta to have a pipeline was the real kicker. If all of that was not bad enough, we have a PM who is trying to over reach into every little aspect of our lives from what I watch, what I say, what I believe, what I eat, what I drive, how I heat my home etc. Coming soon, he will be controlling my access to cash. He will never stop. Then there is the seemingly endless foreign aid, increasing Canada's debt to insane levels, the liberal immigration policy, gun control while being soft on crime. I also have zero ambition to hate the US and even less ambition to become part of the EU (entirely absurd)
I have become convinced that the east and the west are so far apart in every way that confederation will never work anymore. Canada has become only what Quebec, Ontario, and the Atlantic wants and needs. Elections are useless, we cannot vote our way out of this because before our votes are even counted, we were hearing the results. How is that fair or representative of our vote?
Something has to change and right now, separating seems like the only way for many like me

🚨🇨🇦 Mark Carney is heading …
for New York to get investments for Canada 🗽 (Read : Brookfield)

Now Read this slowly.

• Wife lives and work for firms in the U.S. 🇺🇸

• Kids live & study in the U.S. 🇺🇸

• ~91% of his portfolio in the U.S. 🇺🇸

• Home in the U.S. 🇺🇸

• Brookfield moved HQ to the U.S. 📍

🇨🇦 CPP is heavily invested in the 🇺🇸

Yet he tells Canadians: 🇨🇦

“We can’t depend on America.” 🇺🇸

Do you see the contradiction?

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

A judge ruled Alberta can't ask Albertans a question, not until First Nations are consulted on whether the question can even be asked.

A judge ruled Ontario can't clear a homeless encampment because homelessness is now a Charter protected characteristic, like race or sex.

Judges across Canada are reducing sentences for foreign criminals so they don't get deported.

The Alberta & Ontario judge: BOTH Liberal appointees under Justice Minister David Lametti.

CANADA IS BEING GOVERNED BY OUR COURTS.

By people no one elected.

Albertans decide the future of Alberta. Just like Quebecers decide the future of Quebec.

This should not be that difficult or controversial!

[Bruce Pardy @PardyBruce]

You are missing the double standard in her tenth question.

If the "Remain" side wins, it's binding. It's over. No further referendum. Independence is defeated.

If the "Independence" side wins, it's not binding. You have to have another referendum and win that one too.

See the double standard?

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Keith Wilson won the debate because he made the case for Alberta’s future.

Jason Kenney leaned on fear and nostalgia, but offered no concrete plan to reform Alberta’s broken position within Canada.

One argued for the future. The other defended the past.

[Derek Smith @unacceptfringe]

Premier Smith,

As a proud Albertan who has stood with you through the Trudeau years, I love this province with everything I have. But I cannot stay silent while you celebrate a new MOU pipeline deal with Mark Carney that includes an industrial carbon price. That price will not “turn the tide” for the working families already crushed by affordability.

Many are down to their last $20 every two weeks after rent, groceries, and power bills. This added cost will not create prosperity, it will bankrupt them.

Your decision to mutilate the October referendum question into something so vague and toothless shows a painful disconnect from the very people who elected you. It feels less like leadership for Alberta and more like political positioning for those who simply want to remain in Canada at any cost while you campaign against the rest.

I say this with genuine regret: I can no longer carry forward my support for you as a voter. Alberta First must mean ALL Albertans first, not just the ones willing to stay in Confederation or agree to financial punishment while the rest are left to struggle.

True patriotism demands compassion for every constituent, not just the ones who fit a national narrative. Premier, the people are watching. Put Alberta, every single Albertan first, or history will remember this as the moment you chose Ottawa over us.

We deserve better. We demand better. #AlbertaFirst #AllAlbertansFirst
