Canada

The president of another country publicly saying, "we will annex you against your will", not once but hundreds of times itself is as threating if not more than military buildup.

We're so desentisized to Trump's ramblings, that we often forget that he's the PRESIDENT of the US. He wields immense power and can act on what he says (which he has done almost always).

A foreign power tells us that we'll be annexed. Their president repeatedly refers to our elected officials by names designated to non sovereign entities inside their country.

This foreign power funds and engages in a separatist movement within our country. How is this not an "act preparatory to war"?

These assholes should be locked up for high treason.

Note: Quebecois separatism is different. It's really stupid, but NOT TREASON. Why's that? It would be treason to conspire with a foreign power, and take actions to undermine the sovereignty of Canada.

Had Alberta separatism not had US involvement, it would not have been treason. It would just be a bunch of really stupid people using their democratic rights to act within what they feel is their interest.

But what is happening right now is exactly what happened to Ukraine.

If the current administration is really as "elbows up" as it claims to be, it should prosecute and shut down this US backed operation in Alberta. Not doing so could make us another Ukraine.

USA is threatening to occupy our airspace (under the guise of NORAD) if we don't subsidize their F-35 program to the tune of 80 Billion USD.

You are naive.

I wouldnt consider what Alberta is doing as causal, it's a coordinated efferts to try and a ex the Provence to fit America wishes, I would consider that treasonous, you can got to court about it but I'd think they'd lose.
