    This is a bigger problem and it is being ignored by governments for far too long. It’s not just these clowns, the Ottawa protest, all the Alberta “think tanks” and these NFP NGOs like “Canadian Federation of Taxpayers” who get tax free status in Canada but do not reveal that they are being funded by US Fascist Foundations like Atlas.

    You want NFP status in Canada, you should have to be 100% transparent as to who is funding your agenda.

    Strip everything away and you’ll find it’s just the convoy crowd that is still pissed off because they are slightly uncomfortable and they threw too much money at their trucks. Most other Albertans are just ordinary working stiffs like most of us.

    I love this quote - it provides a little more context - from CBC’s coverage:

    “To go to a foreign country and to ask for assistance in breaking up Canada, there’s an old-fashioned word for that, and that word is treason,” said Eby, ahead of the closed-door meeting in Ottawa.

    Eby out there spitting truth. And he’s right - this is a separatist splinter group trying to drag the majority of Albertans who want nothing to do with them kicking and screaming into the abyss of US annexation.

    Hey they’re more than welcome to leave. They’re not taking the land but they’re welcome to go. I’ll even help them pack and give them a swift kick in the ass when they’re at the border.

      I would even support my tax dollars to be used to relocate these assholes to their Valhalla, a trailer park in Bumfuck, Tx. “Love it or leave it” was a great American idea.

      In the spirit of Ralph Klein, I think we can find the money to buy each of them one way bus tickets to their preferred US state.
