Trump administration officials have reportedly held several secret meetings with far-right Canadian separatists who want to break free from the rest of the country.
U.S. officials met with leaders of the Alberta Prosperity Project, a fringe right-wing group of separatists who want the oil-rich western province to become independent, three times in Washington since last April, sources told the Financial Times.
News of the stealthy meetings comes at a time of especially high tensions between the U.S. and its northern neighbor. During a speech in Davos at the World Economic Forum, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke of a “rupture” in the world order, in what appeared to be a veiled attack on the trade and foreign policies of Donald Trump – but without mentioning him by name.
I’m not disagreeing with you, but war is always the point. It’s usually a tiny minority, but these movements are backed by a global campaign of disinformation and destabilization funded by oligarchs trying to gain control of natural resources and global power.
It’s preventable, but you just have to be prepared for wolves in sheep’s clothing who rely on the victim narrative and in-grouping.
Agree. We know.
