Each and every time Alberta separatism is brought up in the media they go after Danielle Smith for stoking the separatist movement. They rarely if ever bring up 11 years of being ignored & basically left out of the Canadian conversation by the Liberal Government as the true cause of Alberta Separatism.

Another thing I find strange in this referendum discussion, in addition to the debate about whether people should even have a say, is the sudden concern about the cost of a referendum. Of all the things governments spend money on, hearing directly from citizens is not where I draw the line on the public purse. But if we are going to start questioning the cost or purpose of a referendum, then we should be prepared to apply that same scrutiny to all public spending. Where are the billions going? Why are people waiting more than 12 hours in emergency rooms to see a doctor? Why does it take weeks to issue a passport? Why do some of our roads look like they belong in a war-torn country? Because it certainly does not feel like public money is consistently being used for the public good. I am a huge proponent of transparency and accountability. And I mean serious transparency and accountability, where spending is visible to the public in real time, where decision-makers must answer for how public money is used, and where meaningful consequences, including criminal consequences, follow misconduct and corruption. So where exactly do people want to draw the line? On citizens having a voice? Or on transparency, accountability, and consequences for public officials and institutions when public trust is violated? To make a fuss about the cost of giving citizens an opportunity to express their views on an important issue? Come on. Let’s get serious. In a democratic society, citizens should not have to ask permission to make their voices heard. And using public funds to hear directly from the public should be viewed as one of the most legitimate uses of the public purse in the first place. At the end of the day, democracy is not supposed to be convenient for governments. It is supposed to be responsive to the people. If we start treating public participation as an unnecessary expense instead of a democratic necessity, then we are asking the wrong questions entirely. Citizens are not the problem to be managed; they are the very foundation of the system.

Liberal MPs finally put their names on something and the media’s instinct is to protect them from accountability. From their own letter. Totally normal stuff, guys.

Full section from @ChristyClarkBC. I understand this is a Laurentian tendency but calling Alberta separatism or a referendum stupid and saying @ABDanielleSmith, a duly-elected premier, is "not qualified to be premier of a province" doesn't help the pro-federalist cause.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation @CBC stands at the center of a rotten and deeply unethical operation that has now been exposed for the second time in just days, revealing a much larger coordinated abuse of public trust and taxpayer dollars. What began as deceptive stings targeting academics and commentators who question aspects of the residential school narrative has escalated into systematic ambushes against RCMP veterans, all enabled by CBC Entertainment’s direct involvement in providing studios, travel funding, and institutional legitimacy, while the broadcaster’s news division pretends to keep its hands clean. The National Police Federation, representing 20,000 members, has publicly condemned the tactics, along with veteran testimonies detailing the harm, yet CBC’s response remains a weak pause for internal review rather than any admission of wrongdoing. Retired officers were lured under the fake “After the Call” documentary, pitched as an honouring of their service and post-retirement life, with even hints of royal family involvement. They were flown to CBC studios in Vancouver, asked to wear red serge uniforms, had their phones confiscated under false claims of standard procedure, and then subjected to berating over historical RCMP-Indigenous relations, with manipulative videos and humiliation. Many described it as retraumatizing, especially those already dealing with PTSD. This mirrors exactly the first wave against targets such as Frances Widdowson, Lindsay Shepherd, Jerry Amernic, Dallas Brodie, and Aaron Gunn, who were drawn in through fake companies like Heritage Figures of Canada and Forge Media, with prestige contracts, staged meetings, and symbolic props such as children’s shoes, before being ambushed on so-called denialism of Kamloops claims. Fake domains were registered in early April 2026, with one quickly removed after exposure. The exact match in tactics, from positive lures to trust-building with flights, contracts, and uniforms, then ideological confrontations, all stems from the same Borat-style laughtivism pitch made at Banff in 2024 for the production under the name Counting Coup, with working title Northland Tales, by NLT1 Productions Inc. The CBC has now paused production after the veteran backlash, with its Entertainment division reviewing footage to protect the news brand while raw material still exists and should be destroyed, exposing once again how the public broadcaster routinely shields its ideological projects behind artificial separations between entertainment and journalism. The responsible parties cannot hide behind Indigenous-led claims, and the CBC bears enormous liability as the primary enabler and co-producer that greenlit, funded, and hosted these deceptions in its own facilities, despite its long history of bias, waste, and ethical failures. NLT1 Productions Inc., based in Saskatoon and incorporated in February 2025, served as the core operator, with sole director Ryan Moccasin, a Saulteaux Anishinaabe individual, holding primary legal responsibility for the fake infrastructure, ambushes, and resulting harm, but it was the CBC that provided the platform, resources, and cover through figures like Katherine Wolfgang. Key creatives executing the hits include Dakota Ray Hebert, from English River First Nation (Dene), who played central roles in planning and on-camera confrontations; Gitz Crazyboy, from Piikani First Nations, as part of the activist trio concept; and others such as Shane Belcourt (a Métis individual), Tito Ybarra, Marlo Miazga, and Shant Joshi, all operating with the CBC’s eager participation. Tactics experts involved Igor Vamos, from The Yes Men, for hoax methods, and Molly Gore, using the alias Pam Gibson, for deceptive outreach, further enabled by the CBC’s willingness to lend its taxpayer-supported credibility to such stunts. APTN acted as a fully complicit co-producer in this scheme. Funding came through the Indigenous Screen Office and Canadian Heritage as part of the April 2025 $6.3 million batch for 28 projects, where most others delivered zero output after more than 13 months, yet this one produced active harm under the CBC’s direct oversight. This latest fiasco adds to the CBC’s already damning record of squandering over $1.4 billion annually in taxpayer funds while claiming news deserts as justification for more money, even as it faces a $192 million cut in the 2026-27 fiscal year and continues to hide subscriber numbers for its Gem platform by spending tens of thousands on legal battles. The broadcaster has repeatedly pushed residential school narratives with sloppy reporting that conflated ground-penetrating radar anomalies with confirmed mass graves, later issuing quiet corrections while aggressively labeling skeptics as denialists and amplifying calls to criminalize dissent. From greenlighting absurd content like talking testicle-shaped tomatoes delivering woke sermons to children in past shows, to selective coverage that downplays forensic gaps in Kamloops and other sites, the CBC has consistently prioritized ideological enforcement over journalistic integrity, all while demanding billions amid economic hardship, job losses, and eroding public trust. A letter has gone to Marc Miller’s office, with growing Conservative pressure for full inquiry, audit, and broader defunding of the corporation that enables such overreach. This scandal is much bigger because it confirms systemic failures at the CBC, where public funds fuel fake infrastructure and narrative policing rather than neutral content. The original domain research exposed the setups, and the veteran wave solidifies the pattern of targeting anyone challenging unverified grave narratives or defending Canadian history and institutions. Consent obtained through fraud is invalid, and this crosses into misrepresentation, privacy breaches, and potential fraud under Canadian law. Veterans who served the public deserve far better than betrayal by their own taxpayer-funded broadcaster. The same CBC that preaches reconciliation and trust has repeatedly deployed lies, manipulation, and humiliation as tools while shielding itself from scrutiny, connecting everything into one damning picture of waste and overreach, with the grant pipeline feeding directly into fake setups and narrative enforcement. The pause falls far short of justice. Footage must be destroyed, funds audited and recovered, and every approval in the CBC chain traced for real accountability, as this latest embarrassment underscores why serious reform, or outright defunding of the corporation, is long overdue.

So let me get this straight….CBC has a copy of the letter but they’ve decided to protect the MP’s who signed it?!? Is CBC even pretending to be a balanced media outlet anymore? Last week, CBC got caught lying to a Conservative MP so he would unwittingly be part of their gross spoof. This week they are proactively protecting Liberal MP’s who actually wrote this letter. This is indefensible and I will never listen to anyone who says that CBC isn’t biased. Canadians deserve better!
Brian Lilley@brianlilley

14 Liberal MPs write a letter critical of Carney. CBC gets it and writes this. "Despite signing their names at the bottom of the letter, the MPs do not want to be publicly identified," CBC writes. No names released. This would not happen to Poilievre. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Today CBC is wasting an hour of broadcast time over CBS dumping Colbert. The arrogance to run a parallel story to Canadians about Orange Man Bad the day after they themselves using taxpayer funded airwaves to gaslight Canadians? They truly believe they are superior!
NPF-FPN@npffpn

RCMP Members and Veterans were intentionally tricked into critical and humiliating interviews for a taxpayer-funded CBC/APTN production. We are calling for an immediate halt and a full inquiry into how this was approved, funded, and executed. Read our full release: npf-fpn.com/news-item/rcmp…

Conservative MP Fraser Tolmie warned two weeks ago that the Liberals were grounding the Snowbirds. The media, in a heroic act of journalism, repeated the government’s denial as fact. The Liberals have now confirmed it is true. Truly, no one could have seen this coming.

Rent is insane. Groceries are insane. Taxes are insane. Crime is insane. Healthcare is collapsing. But don’t worry. Liberal MP Mark Gerretsen has free Pride lawn signs ready for pickup. The country is breaking, but the virtue-signalling department is fully stocked.
