#Trump Isn’t Just Trolling #Canada. He’s Helping Push It Apart.

By Curtis Gillespie, Sept. 3, 2026

Excerpt: "The political pancake breakfast is one of the longstanding traditions of the Calgary Stampede, Alberta’s annual rodeo and fair. Members of the province’s governing #UnitedConservativeParty hosted one on July 2, the day after Canada Day. The far-right premier of the province, Danielle Smith, kitted out in Lone Star cowboy boots, a Stetson hat and a Texas Longhorn bolo tie, popped in. It was hard not to read the outfit as a conscious nod to Canada’s erstwhile friends south of the border, because President #Trump, #MAGA and the United States are unmistakable strands of the conversation in Alberta these days.

"After flipping some flapjacks, the premier addressed the crowd, making sure to toss a pancake to her base by saying that immigrants — or 'newcomers,' as she put it — had caused government spending to skyrocket. She reminded people that the Stampede is an expression of bedrock Albertan values: grit, determination and getting back in the saddle. The implied contrast was with the hopeless mandarins in Ottawa who can’t be expected to know anything about such matters.

"It would have been a typical Stampede breakfast were it not for the sightings of a formerly reclusive political creature: the baldfaced #AlbertaSeparatist, a breed apart from the more common species, the alienated Westerner. They came in groups like #Albertans4Freedom and #UnitedAlbertaFlags, which advocate Alberta seceding from Canada to become an independent #JudeoChristianNation.

"They encouraged #Albertans to vote yes on Oct. 19 to a referendum question asking whether Alberta should start down the road to separation, an impulse that the Trump-friendly Ms. Smith — without explicitly endorsing separation — has given new life to by pushing for the referendum question to be on the ballot."

Mass pre-emptive arrest of #ReclaimThePower #activists in #Yorkshire

Aug 8, 2024

22 held as police foil plot to bring #CompostToilets and #wheelchair track to #Drax #ClimateCamp

"UPDATE 13.30: the climate camp has now been cancelled

"Officers from the Metropolitan police this morning led local forces in a raid on Bentley Urban Farm in Doncaster, said eye witnesses. They arrested twenty two activists, who were preparing to transport infrastructure, sanitation and accessibility equipment to the upcoming climate camp at Drax power station.

"Crashing sounds were heard from outside the site as vehicles and equipment were impounded. The detainees were taken to York police station, where they are being held for conspiracy charges: in this case, to interfere with key national infrastructure at Drax Power Station in Selby between 8 and 13 August. Media repeated the police’s claim they are “not against protest but against crime”.

"This morning’s pre-emptive arrests, ahead of a peaceful protest, contrast sharply with the State’s failure to foil recent far right violence, said Reclaim the Power. 'Black and Brown communities are under attack with fire and bricks and the police have made the unfathomable decision to divert resources away from those communities to arrest 22 people taking equipment to make a peaceful climate protest safe and accessible', said the group in a statement."
