So are they going to be treated like the traitors they are or are we going to do a US and stop at strong words?

I don't know, but the fact they're a minority of just one province makes me less worried. MAGA is national and so has real teeth.
By every definition of the word yes.

Send them to the oubliette! May they never see the light of day, the treasonous dogs!

You gotta love the names of traitor groups like these. It's the same in the US, and it's always something super duper positive, something that sounds like wisdom, but it's always a shiny turd
Duh
Yes, but how many of our politicians have been willing to say that directly so far?
Why does nobody care that the PC leader for years, and even recently, was a US citizen?
The same fucking loser who faked being an insurance broker, that's even lower than real estate agent.
Some cared, I sure did.
I think most Canadians were in denial about the USA being our enemy or that the CPC were turning into MAGA loyalists at the time he was in charge on that party.
I feel like this should be considered an act of war by the United States
It absolutely is. Time to put them on trial!
And there is only one answer to a traitor.
To the gallows, as per Canadian law.
That's only in the military, it's just a life sentence in civilian court.

I live a block away from the tavern where the trial of the bloody assize was held. Traitors friendly to the US in 1814 were put on trial, then brought to Burlington to be fitted for custom hemp neckties. Then, their heads were cut off and placed on pikes and paraded around Ontario villages. We didn't have a traitor problem since then.
These cosplay cowboys are all foreign agents and if they were supported by China everyone would be freaking out.
Why do you think Canadians have a worse view of China than America?
We're raised hating the US, China is just an afterthought.
We are not raised hating the US that is ridiculous. We might come to despise certain administrations but we don't hate the majority of Americans, just a sorry stupid few.
Just the ones led by Democrats and Republicans right?
Or are you a Zoomer? Surprisingly they seemed to like the Americans.
In theory, someone could kill the king and their lawyer could argue it isn't high treason because the law specifies HER majesty. I'm pretty sure they'd still be convicted of murder though.
Thanks for the info.
My life sentence for them would be short. Because a bullet would enter them fast.
Wait I thought we put them to the geese? Maybe let's do both to be sure.
Yes. Obviously.
Albertans need to make it personally painful for any politicians that do this.
No shade to Eby but it doesn't take a lawyer to understand that water is wet.
Since he's a lawyer though, he should know there's more than enough to convict them of attempted treason, conspiracy, or any other inchoate crime thereof. Unfortunately it looks like neither provincial nor federal prosecutors will go after them for it.
Except water isnβt wet, it makes other things wet. Apparently you do need a lawyer.
So is it itself dry, then?
Large scale media has studiously avoided saying 'treason', so having a political leader say it is helpful.
