I love how the esteemed “judges” appear with a wall of shoes, symbolizing those 215 “unmarked graves” in Kamloops they haven’t quite gotten around to finding. Looks very professional and impartial

The Canadian government is on trial this week in an international tribunal known the Permanent People’s Tribunal. The tribunal seeks to hold the Canadian government accountable for its role in the Residential school system. Stay tuned this week for more coverage from the tribunal.

Look, I’ve been reading some of these hot takes about Danielle Smith and the whole "separatist fire" narrative, and honestly? It’s a bit rich. People like @kinsellawarren in their ivory towers love to talk about "dangerous rhetoric," but out here in the real world, where we’re actually building things, creating jobs, and trying to keep the lights on, it looks a lot different. Calling this a "fire" implies something accidental or that Smith is just out there with a match for the fun of it. That’s just not true. If there’s heat, it’s because the federal government has been turning up the temperature on Alberta for years. When you keep squeezing the province that’s supposed to be the engine of the country, don’t act surprised when people start looking for the emergency exit. And let’s talk about this obsession with labelling everything "radical." Since when is giving people a voice a bad thing? Whether you’re talking about the Alberta Sovereignty Act or simply pushing back on federal overreach, it’s not about burning the house down. It’s about standing up for the people who pay the bills. If you’re a builder, you know that when the foundation is cracked, you fix it; you don’t just pretend the house is fine because you don’t like the sound of the drilling. The media likes to paint this as some fringe movement, but you talk to everyday folks at the job site or the grocery store, and they’re tired of being ignored. Smith isn’t creating these feelings; she’s just not afraid to acknowledge them. That’s what leadership looks like to a lot of us. It’s not about separation for the sake of it; it’s about making sure Alberta doesn't get left holding the bag while Ottawa keeps moving the goalposts. At the end of the day, we just want a fair shake. Stop the fear-mongering, stop the condescending lectures from Down East, and start respecting the fact that Albertans are smart enough to decide their own future. That’s the real conversation we should be having.

I welcome Lead-Not-Leave to this important debate. Albertans deserve a serious explanation of why our children and grandchildren will be better off under Ottawa’s control than in a free and prosperous independent Alberta. Federalists must now show how Canada can be made fair to Alberta when Mulroney, Harper, Manning and Kenney could not achieve it. And we should be honest: Alberta cannot “lead” a Confederation in which Ottawa holds the power and repeatedly uses it against us. How will Ottawa be made to stop treating Alberta as its colony and ATM? Until there is a credible federalist plan, independence remains a serious and necessary option. Albertans deserve answers.

Kevin in Alberta@kevin_inalberta·
Quebec sovereignty vs. Alberta sovereignty Quebec wants special treatment, and threatens independence, but not a clear independence, a special "Sovereignty Association". National outpouring over how special Quebec is. Loses independence referendum. Gets special treatment. Albertans want equal treatment, and threaten independence - on a clear question, by the people, not the politicians. Grasroots, not politically led. National outpuring of scorn telling us to know our role. Clear petition for referendum on independence gets thwarted by the courts. Our request to ask a question of our population becomes instead asking the population if we're allowed to ask them that question. National outpouring of scorn continues. No suggestion of ever getting equal treatment or addressing the iniquity. Massive campaign of fear, uncertainty and doubt designed to demoralize. You can't leave, we won't let you. Stop whining, you inbred ditchbillies. You're already rich, how dare you complain. So far, this movement toward an independence referendum is nothing like Quebec. Let's hope the outcome is different, too - and Albertans succeed.

Daniela Bonamico, fresh from her flight from Turkey paid by Canadian tax dollars, already starts with the outlandish claims that: -She was in a concentration camp -There were flotilla members who were shot & stabbed -A flashbang was thrown in her cell that "sliced me open." -All Israelis are terrorists. -Blames Canada 100% for her kidnap & "torture." -That @Israel & its 10 million citizens will cease to exist in the near future. -Calling for Intifada at the airport. This was all done under approval & protection of @TorontoPearson Airport authority who decided their airport was a political stage to call for murder of Israelis rather than a place to transport Canadians. We are sure places like @CBC and @CTV will eat this up and not look at Daniela Bonamico's heavy digital footprint of being one of the most prominent Jew haters in Canada.

Remember guys, it doesn’t create any new laws or authorities, just like mandatory masking, where if you didn’t wear one they police could beat the shit out of you, arrest you and in the case of this woman in the video, killed by 2 guards. The guards were never charged as they claimed this was the force that was needed in order to get ahold of her. So no, they have all the authority power they need.
Public Safety Canada@Safety_Canada

(1/2) Part 2 of Bill C-22 does not create new authorities, such as surveillance powers, for law enforcement and CSIS. It ensures that electronic service providers are able to respond to lawful access requests from law enforcement and CSIS.

A pipeline that cost $34 billion of our tax dollars. Not a dime of which would have been spent if the Liberals and their BC pals had not obstructed KM every step of the way. And now you think we should THANK them for their largesse? 🤣
Ken Boessenkool@KenBoessenkool

You forgot that they built a pipeline. With Canadian’s taxpayer dollars. Against the objections of many caucus members. And is contributing billions to Alberta’s, and Canada’s, coffers now that it’s built.

I look forward to a serious and respectful debate tonight with former Premier Jason Kenney. Albertans deserve to hear both sides clearly. I will be making the case that independence offers Alberta the best path forward.

1,000,000,000,000. A Trillion dollars. That's how much debt Trudeau and Carney will accumulate by 2030! And what do we have to show for it? 14.3% youth unemployment!

By my read, we are the only country on earth who *officially* punishes citizens more harshly than non-citizens for the same crime. I challenge you to find me a Canadian who doesn't believe it should be *exactly* the other way around.
Jamie Sarkonak@sarkonakj

@frob15 @TristinHopper That would make the most sense, but the Supreme Court didn't think that was fair. So it made a rule in 2013 requiring that immigration be taken into account. Here's a news story about it from back then: canadianlawyermag.com/news/general/i…

Liberal MP @SalmaZahid15 poses with an IRGC enthusiast wearing a Supreme Leader series fan shirt. The IRGC is a listed terrorist entity in Canada, despite Liberals slow walking the decision. They’ve built an empire of terror proxies, subjugate Iranian women to brutal repression, partner with organized crime in Canada, and intimidate our communities and our leaders. It’s one thing to maybe not notice the t-shirt. But why is this IRGC fanboy so enthusiastic about MP Zahid? 🤔👇

For Harth, the contradiction in Ottawa should be of concern to Canadian citizens: “Here’s a very basic question everyone should ask themselves: who made the request for an MoU with the RCMP? And subsequently: who stands to gain from this agreement? If the answer is — as I suspect — the PRC on both counts, why on earth should Canadians assent to it?” @MarkJCarney @AnitaAnandMP @rcmpgrcpolice @csiscanada @NewYorkFBI

Here we go! The fix is in. They’re going to use your pension money to invest in Canada’s failing state when you wouldn’t do so on your own. The vehicle? None other than our very own sovereign debt fund. First they got the media to push the Global Infrastructure Investment Association’s (GIIA) Pulse Survey that found “Canada to be the most attractive destination for infrastructure investment.” Survey was off course anonymous. But… Surprise! Surprise! the CPP Investment fund is one of the founding members of the GIIA along with our dear friends at Brookfield. This is the next step. If anyone asks, they can justify their investment decision by pointing to the survey they fabricated themselves. This is how they’re going to pillage the fund and rape Canadians out of their own money. I can already hear François Philippe Champagne’s nasally voice: “Mister Speaker. We’re standing up for Canadians. Why don’t the conservatives want to invest in Canadians?” Absolute clown show. If you’re an Albertan federalist, I need you to comment below and explain to me how you justify wanting to remain in this truly corrupted country. ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/cppib-pos…

Alaa Al-Soufi was recently given Canadian citizenship despite being arrested twice & having a known digital footprint of supporting radical designated terrorist entities. These things don’t matter to the current people in charge in Canada.
Leviathan tweet media
Leviathan@l3v1at4an

Alaa Al-Soufi is a Syrian refugee who is known for getting arrested for preventing an old woman from entering a Maxime Bernier event in Hamilton in 2019, back when police used to charged mask protestors with crimes. This resulted in his parent’s family restaurant “Soufi’s” to close down due to the backlash. Unlike many hard working Syrian refugees who came to Canada, including his parents, it doesn’t seem to look like Alaa Al-Soufi works or contributes to society based off monitoring his active social media. Instead, Alaa Al-Soufi has doubled down on his protest efforts & became a professional, getting arrested at the UofT encampment in 2024. It does not seem being responsible for the destruction of his parent’s business deterred him from continuing. Now Alaa Al-Soufi has his sights set on the Jewish neighborhood of Bathurst & Sheppard. There is no other reason for him to be in this neighborhood otherwise for the targeting of the Jewish community that appears every Sunday to stand in solidarity for the release of the hostages. Alaa Al-Soufi’s posts are what you would expect from a radical Hamas supporter, including glorification of terrorism & terrorists, calling Palestine “sexy” on October 7th and support for the Al-Qassam Brigades who were responsible for the terrorist attack. This is a Notice of Public Interest to the Jewish community of Toronto regarding this radicalized Syrian refugee who goes out of his way to target & intimidate Jewish neighborhoods, along with Law Enforcement for his glorification of terrorism. All materials provided were obtained via publicly available sources & does not contain any forms of private media.

A change in the government responsible for administering lands does not erase treaty rights or treaty obligations. The Robinson Treaties of 1850 are a good example. They cover large parts of what is now northern Ontario, including lands around Lake Superior and Lake Huron. They were entered into with the British Government before Canada even became a country in 1867, yet the treaty relationship and obligations continued after Confederation. That history matters today. Treaty rights are not simply dependent on the political boundaries or governments that later emerge. They are enduring commitments, grounded in the treaty relationship itself.
