Things are getting mighty testy up there where our northern neighbors live and whine.
Oh.
I meant work.
While feckless friends in Europe posture for the camera, the press, and each other over the Bad Orange Man’s bloviating about Greenland and helplessly flail as they try to ‘act decisively‘…
They’re more action based on Trump’s Greenland comments than they did for Russia invading Ukraine. https://t.co/r6PnHKvFab

…Canada’s been having a swell old time spinning their wheels and melting down without anyone else’s help.
In this new geopolitical paradigm shift, Canada, Australia and Europe will become irrelevant. They will censor and regulate themselves until they become self imposed pockets of nothingness.

They’re going to go POOF! all on their own.
Their world banker prime minister, Mark Carney, who was initially selected, not elected, has continued Justin ‘Fidelito’ Trudeau’s march into economic obscurity by doubling down on all of his party’s ridiculous climate and #feelz-driven initiatives, regulatory agendas, and programs.
‘When the Cold War ended, Britain, France, Italy, Japan, and Canada represented 32% of the world economy. Today, they make up less than 14%. By 2020 Arkansas and Alabama had overtaken each one in per-capita income.’ @WSJopinion https://t.co/IBuM3ZAdkK

This young man was euthanized by Canada’s government-run healthcare.
Kiano had diabetes, vision impairment, and struggled with mental illness.
He was only 26 years old.

Shame the old girl made it. She’s only going to be a drain on the system, you know?
But that’s not all that makes life worth dying for in Canada.
A lot of people are suddenly finding out that they have to deal with those darn Indians wanting their houses and land, because a court gave it away.
I’ve told you about the ongoing saga in British Columbia where a claim by the nomadic Cowichan First Nations tribe for most of a North Vancouver town called Richmond had exploded into First Nations claims for most of the property of British Columbia.
Well, every First Nation outfit seems to want to get into the ‘That was historically our parcel over there‘ land-claiming business.
A lot of Americans have no idea what’s going on up in Canada, but a few months ago, the Supreme Court ruled that a huge swath of Vancouver’s suburbs actually belongs to an indian tribe.
These Aboriginal Land Claims are now going to explode across the country. The whole thing is… pic.twitter.com/1WcSHKxIvH

…The whole thing is quickly becoming a massive grift.
For example, another indian tribe has a lawsuit going on where they claim title over literally half of the entire province of New Brunswick.
Canada is allowing itself to be broken apart via legal and administrative implosion.
I would say it was a massive grift from the start, but I am cynical that way.
While the First Nations grifters are taking your mule and forty acres with the government’s permission as you’re still paying taxes on all of it, they’re also playing fast and loose with the source of your income.
This is what they’ve done to the Province of Alberta, whose oil and gas industry fuels a great deal of what fuels Canada. Alberta needs a new pipeline to reach ports on the coast, as it is a rich but landlocked province. The First Nations and the basically Communist BC Premier David Eby decided they would not allow the pipeline.
Some BC First Nations want to block Alberta’s exports from reaching tidewater ports. Imagine if Alberta took the same position on BC’s exports through Alberta?
Every train or truck leaving BC headed to Toronto, Chicago, or the Maritimes must roll through Alberta—making Alberta… https://t.co/NBeAZUb3Ua

Now, Alberta has had about all the province can stand as far Green grifters go, having laid the law down to incoming Prime Minister Carney as far back as last May.
A citizen initiative petition was started to probe the possibility of Alberta freeing themselves from the Canadian yoke and going their own way as an independent country. At first, there was a lot of scoffing and sneering, mostly from the elites in Ottawa at the cowboys back in Alberta.
But Albertans seemed, at the time, at least willing to seriously ponder the issue, which is a legitimate course of action under the Canadian constitution.
If enough Canadians in that province agree, it can trigger a secession negotiation.
The province can leave Canada proper and go its own way.
The Supreme Court of Canada already settled this in 1998.
If a province wins a clear majority on a clear referendum question, that democratic result carries constitutional weight and triggers a duty to negotiate secession.
That’s legitimacy. That’s law. Not theory. pic.twitter.com/Tyegvi5rN7

With everything that’s happened in the past year, word of the initiative petition has been spreading, as has interest in finding out more about the process.
No one was ready for what happened yesterday, now that it’s been officially blessed to begin collecting signatures, when the petition drive came to Calgary.
The citizen-initiative petition on Alberta independence has started collecting signatures and made a stop in Calgary over the weekend, as new data shows more Albertans are in favour of separation.
The petition was approved by Elections Alberta in December and its campaign is now holding events across the province to gather signatures.
In the southeast Calgary community of Queensland Saturday, a line to sign stretched out a community centre and down the block.
“We’re seeing this across the province. We had similar footage of Red Deer this afternoon as well. All of our other events outside of Calgary have been at capacity and all we can do to process the signatures,” said Gregory Hartzler, CFO of the Stay Free Alberta Campaign.
“What about my pension, what about Canada pension; and what about the state of being landlocked and what do we do, how do we make money if we’re landlocked?” a panelist at Saturday’s event asked.
The petition asks: “Do you agree that the Province of Alberta should cease to be a part of Canada to become an independent state?”
“I’m just tired of the political climate — tired of the current federal government trying to take away my right to make money, my freedoms and everything else. It’s time to stand up and do something about it,” said petition supporter Tim Burrell.
I’M TIRED OF IT
It turns out he has lots of company.

People were waiting in line in the early-morning cold and dark for hours to sign.

First Nations, on the other hand, are having themselves a hissy fit of major proportions.
YOU CAN’T STEAL THE LAND WE’RE STEALING THAT YOU STOLE!
Who do these Canadians think they are?
Southern Alberta’s Blood Tribe is castigating what it sees as the province’s enabling a drift toward separatism and is vowing to join other First Nations’ legal actions against it.

On Friday, the First Nation issued a statement that opposed the decision to allow the launch of a pro-independence petition and provincial legislation that appears to ease the way for the movement.

“The Blood Tribe rejects any initiative aimed at Alberta’s separation from Canada and holds grave concerns about the Citizen Initiative Act as amended in December 2025,” reads the three-page statement.
The meeting I spoke at tonight in South Calgary was amazing.
The room hit capacity nearly an hour before the meeting began.
